CONFIRMED Mark McGuinness - 4 year contract

[Slim Man]

He got rolled by Ross Stewart! Seen milk turn quicker

Without the ball as well

 

[RecordBreakers]

embarrassingly slow and thick for that 2nd goal, and neither of his centre half partners, particularly Tanganga dare to leave him and bomb on. Bit of an issue.

He's useless, Ipswich away was were I'd already made my mind up about him and nothing yet is to convince me otherwise.

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

I was quite happy when we signed him but he’s been piss poor so far. They need to take him out of that defence asap.

 

[NateDogg]

Bet Tom Cannon is breathing a sigh of relief.

For what?

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I'd seen him enough times before he signed to be pretty sure we were making a mistake.

Nothing I've seen since has surprised me.

you are never happy

 

[Kenworthy’s Tash]

you are never happy

You do have a point there peakblade, years of following Utd taking its toll! My post isn’t wrong tho….

 

[Houston_Blade]

He’s piss poor

 

[metalblade]

Should only be back up, he really isn't very good.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

A very random, bizarre signing and probably for a decent fee too

There's a massive number of alternatives we could've had. A wide range of player types, from all over the place, domestic or abroad

He doesn't even fill any specific role, that's the thing

We could have had Woolfenden for example, who's gone to Coventry. Mepham, who's gone to WBA. Or a different example, Terry Yegbe, who went to Metz for only 2.5m

 

[Bladesince59]

The owners must be loving the ride

 

[Blademan89]

Was a panic buy.

Appalling to be panic buying last hour of the window players like this. They were plenty of players who sre levels above available on a free or cheap pick ups early on too.

 

[Blade56]

Club has lost its way

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Harry Darling or Mark McGuinness

Fucking fuck sake, man....

 

[dingledog]

Club has lost its way

…and gone backwards 10 years or more.

 

[Working Class Hero]

Such a weird signing this one. Seemed to come out of nowhere, and raised a lot of eyebrows after his performances at Luton and the fact we'd already signed 5 centre halves. Nothing we've seen since has made it look any more sensible.

It looks as though he was signed because Bindon and Zatterstrom had been deemed substandard, which in itself shows how much of a joke that transfer window was.

 

[John Street West Terrace]

Shocking signing & ppl thought Robbo was a liability

 

[Wards]

Said on shoutbox but he's making me think Bindon or Godfrey might be better shouts at CB.

 

[John Street West Terrace]

We have signed some some right kack I’m afraid in the last window

Barry
Bindon
Ogbene
McGuiness
Matos
Soumare
Godfrey

None of the above would have got near last seasons side

Tanganga , Mee ( so far ) & hopefully a fit Ings decent additions

I think in Jan 4/5 of those loans will be getting returned , but we’re stuck with them til Jan .
We are well & truly in a relegation fight

 

[Houston_Blade]

Just gutted we didn’t offer him a 5 year contract

Agreed we've had a nightmare with the loan signings. Only Ogbene worth keeping on evidence so far and he's not been great

I think we must have got a 2 for 1 on him and Chong?

As in, I know Chong's fee wasn't disclosed. Luton get players of their books. Wasn't he a £10m signing for them?

We also were at that point playing a back 4 so in theory he should be on the bench...

A brand new back 3 with a nervous goalkeeper is always going to be hard watching, so hopefully he will improve as the side does.

Clear he isn't at the same level as Mee and Tanganga though.

Zatterstrom is a buy for the future surely.

Bindon was Selle's man and hasn't shown he is up to being a CB at championship level yet. Surely he will go back in January (if thats an option).

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Saw people giving him credit on Saturday.

Personally think he's very limited.

Very average, lower end Championship defender sadly. Which is why he was with Wednesday, Cardiff & Luton.

Awful on the ball, slow/clumsy & for a big lad he doesn't impose himself & is quite poor timing his headers.

He's already misjudged and ran under more headers in his blades career than anyone else I can remember. That's a really poor trait for a 6' 4" centre half.

 

[FredZeppelin]

Wank.

[Lane Ender]

I reckon Bindon with Mee at the side of him might work
