Jake Wright

[gaffablade]

He is going out on loan after returning to training from injury. Will be made public soon.

Love the guys heart and head, and good luck to him.

I still love you Jake. GLTTL

Top player, but he's no Egan. Good luck to him, he can solidify any backfour in League One.

If match fit and he hadn't missed the best part of a year, I would actually prefer him to Stearman.

He should be very proud of his time and the critical role he played whilst at Utd. I would have thought he'd make an excellent coach when he finishes playing.

Agree with everything you said there MotS

Still Scunny?

A mate knows him as he trains his son at Dronfield. That was the supposed destination a few weeks ago, but may have changed I guess.

A club pulled out of a deal at the last minute: Wilder: "There's been a couple of clubs in for Jake. There was one club that was all set-up but pulled out at the last minute and that was disappointing for Jake". According to James Shield the club in question was Scunthorpe.

Scunny went for McGahey and Webster instead. Surprised they didn't complete the deal for Wright if he's based in Dronfield as McCall's assistant, Kenny Black, also lives there.

Jake failed the medical at scunny, they then went on to sign Harrison Magahey so I don’t know if they would be back in for him.

I'm talking about teams in league one. Not many play with a 3.

 

[Akinbiyi]

Luton I’ve been told.

 

[JackSUFC]

Would be a good signing for anyone in League One. He didn’t look out of place when he was in the team last season. How he never played above League Two until we signed him is bizarre.

Guess we've improved on both really now, but a fit and fighting Jake Wright would be worth two Stearman's IMO.

I agree, he was critical in our turn around when we were bottom of L1, and he had a decent spell where he didn't disgrace himself in the championship an all.

Sorry mate, my poorly made point was trying to say that I think Wright was so good because of the role he had in a back 3. Unfortunately I don’t think he’d have the same affect in a 2.

He played L1 for Oxford I believe.

Just looked it up - he never played above L2 in 220+ games at Oxford, but did play six times for Brighton in L1 back in 2009.

 

[Bladeinleeds]

Would be a cracking signing for any L1 side imo. Was fantastic for us and exceeded every possible expectation we could have had for him.

We’ve moved past him now with players like Egan and Stearman ahead of him but he used his experience and steadied a shaky defence and delivered time and again for us.

And to be fair I think even a championship side with a young / inexperienced defence could do worse than offer him a deal...

Not sure he's up to Champ level tbh having missed all season so far. If fit and up to speed I think he could do a job in L1 as long as it's in a back 3 - he struggled in a 4 even in L2
