Pugh, Lavery, Carver

[ironlion]

Pugh – good he is back, obviously Hill wasn’t a fan. I always was, v happy he has returned.

Lavery – once a good player I doubt he will play too much and will be used for cover

Carver – I hope he goes and scores some goals, gets fitter and pushes Nuttall a starting berth, haven’t given up on him just yet

[Iron-awe]

Presume Lavery will get the same time as Carver has but you never know he may kick on and surprise the lot of us so welcome to him. Also welcome back Tom Pugh, let’s hope he has put last season’s injury woes behind him and is fit and raring to go. Best of luck guys, hit the ground running.

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

Complete joke of a transfer policy. Pugh was below average for most of last year, perhaps no worse than anyone else and harsh to be released but the lack of interest in him proves the point.

No centre back/left back despite crying out for competition in these positions.

And we wonder why we’re shite

Great to see Pugh back.
He’s a good player and will do well for us.

Lavery will do well at this level.

A good bit of business.

Bradford and Walsall fans rate Lavery. Good signing for this level if stays fit.

Pugh will be much more depth. And he can play full back too

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

How much more depth we need in centre mid? 11 centre mids including a couple out on loan. We stockpile players for no apparent reason.

Well it wouldn’t be much fun on here if we all felt the same way. Can’t see any reason why Pugh has returned unless he’s a favourite of Daws and very cheap, not good enough. We have Butterfield, Beestin, Whitehouse, Feeney, Fletcher and Gallimore (we might even have Hallam a few times) so when is he going to play?
Lavery for Carver is a good swap.

This is what happens when you give your manager a whole transfer window then sack him after half a dozen games!

[CMC]

We always seem to need about 11 Midfielders. Back to when the likes of Richard Hinds and Ian Morris couldn’t get in the first team.

Seem to be dipping ever further into the Mortgage money, though.

Lavery is not yet 30.

No he can’t. If he’s been signed as midfield depth fine it’s not the most pressing need by a long way but he can do a job there. If he’s playing RB he should’ve stayed at Scarborough where he would still be some way off good enough.

For a minute I thought we’d re-signed Jim Lavery as backup keeper!

Didn’t he work as a vehicle mechanic in Ashby?

[Iron-awe]

Not sure les but he sure had spanners for fingers, dear old Jim, never the best was he.

[Northumbiron]

Re: Caolan Lavery. 246 appearances, 47 goals. Roughly a goal every five games.

Not great. Let’s hope he’s too good for the National League!

[lesgeo]

Steve Drake and Brian Arblaster – those years were pretty awful for us with GKs.

[Iron-awe]

Yep till Sir Geoff Barnard came along to save the day.

Indeed Simon at Walsal fan TV rates Lavery and reckons will be a good addition for Scunny at our current level.

He’s another spear in our quiver.

Scores on debut today?

UTI.

[lesgeo]

Still waiting for a new CB.
That one addition would probably make the difference we all need.
What happens when Taft or Boyce get injured, BTW?

We’ve seen what happens when Taft isn’t injured les, HELP centre back required NOW.

Only one Georgie Taft – one Georgie Taa-aft!

[Northumbiron]

Leave him up there!

[Iron-awe]

Lavery could turn out to be a very useful addition on today’s showing. Took his goal well, held it up at times and appears to have what Nuttall lacks, a football brain.

A great start for the lad.
I think he’ll bag quite a few more.

[lesgeo]

Seen the highlights, now. Delighted with the ‘swap’ for Carver.

[WonderGoals]

Lavery looked really good, especially at this level.

Only problem is Marsh is now crocked so we’re down to 2 viable strikers again.

[Iron-awe]

…..also Feeney looked like a hamstring injury late on which at his age could mean bye bye till sometime next year or even for good. We still need a centre back despite Tafts moment of madness yesterday.

[WonderGoals]

We may need another striker as well now. Definitely need a CB though, we have done for ages.
