Incoming? James Wilson

[HeCanDoMagic]

Oldham Chronicle reporter on Twitter reporting we have interest in signing him.

On a free, centre half.

 

[maxstertheblade]

Oldham's captain 27 years old

 

[S5Blade]

Know absolutely nothing about him but hes a centre half so has to be beter than what we have!

 

[FTPE]

Ah, not the young striker from man united then!?

 

[FriethBlade]

He's a centre half, he's 6ft 2in tall and he's on a free...yep I bet we are interested !

 

[Patrick Suffaux]

If this is the lad that use to play for Bristol City we have been linked with him in the past and he was tipped to become a decent player at one time. Can't have kicked on that much if he's at Oldham.

 

[St Annington]

Load of Bo***x.

Why not include the 'Oldham Chronicles main sports Journalists' @Twitter handle, so can be verified?

Which by the way is @wetlands18 (Kevin Richardson)

Checked his account (and others who cover sports for Oldham Chronicle) no such retweet(s) exists.

You look a bit silly now don't you?

I'm well used to that!!!

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

Well played.

 

[Blade58]

Shrewsbury the other club interested perhaps?

Looks like he's been released by Oldham

[SwissBlade]

If he signs, we've no ambition because he was free, if he goes elsewhere we should've signed him.

 

[BushBlade]

So Matt Chambers is the Chronicle's equivalent of Shields? Must be true then.

 

[Bladesman]

Ah, not the young striker from man united then!?

No, that would require us to have some ambition.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

No one claiming it is true, just that its been reported.

 

[HeCanDoMagic]

No, that would require us to have some ambition.

Ambition (+ a promotion, + bigger financial backing)

 

[Barney]

Have we banned ourselves from being interested in young, promising, athletic centre halves?

 

[BushBlade]

On the basis he's free it may well be true. On the basis he's talking to Shrewsbury rather than one of our promotion rivals I hope it isn't.

 

[1danewhitehouse]

Is he the guy that was sent off when we drew at their place?


Seem to remember Billy giving a big clumsy centre half the runaround. Thought he might have been their captain?


When we tonked them 3-0 at the lane last season not one player looked decent.


Is he likely to be better than Edgar? 28 year old, battling relegation with Oldham and not getting much in the way of mentions for his performances along the way. I’m not convinced. In fact, if that’s the pond we’re fishing in we might have been as well keeping McGahey on.

 

[AlanWrightsShinyHead]

Was that intentional...?

 

[Blade58]

Sun Journo Alan Nixon apparently confirms our interest

 

[BigBed]

Wonder if he will be willing to play for a gallon of magnet, a greasy chip butty and a packet of woodbines?? The night out in Sheffield is the Xmas do!!!

 

[Chali 2na]

I'm well used to that!!!

Well played sir.

 

[maxstertheblade]

Nixon says it shud happen

Released or not accepted a new contract? Big difference for me

 

[Ricky]

Back up centre half hopefully.

 

[Blade56]

Deerrrrrrrrrr

Did he say 'shud'? Journalists' standards are truly appalling these days....

One minute ahead of Max! Impressive. May we call you 'scoop' in future?
