Teddy Howe?

[mistertonmick]

Full Back on loan from Blackpool by Radio Hull

[Ironawe]

Bizarre that we’ve gone for a right back

[KeadbyIron]

Bizarre career to say the least. He’s 22 and played one senior league game for Reading.
Blackpool bought him last January and hasn’t played in the league for them.

[MK Iron]

I would have thought Clarke was ample cover for Rowe.

[mistertonmick]

If true I would sooner have a striker.

[DarrynStampGoalMachine]

Clarke crocked long term?

[Ironawe]

Clarke must be crocked but McGahey can play there no problem, don’t see the logic at all

[mistertonmick]

Confirmed.

[Ferrite]

Maybe there was a worry our squad was getting too small.

[cassidystash]

22 years old, 1 league appearance?????????????????????????
Rowe, McGahey, Hornshaw, Scunny Bunny and then Howe.
Very strange.

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

Bizarre signing

Clarke
Rowe
Mcgahey
Hornshaw at a push.

Need to get out of the habit of bloating the squad unnecessarily.

Just listened to Cox’s interview and he said he only wanted to bring in players that are better than what we’ve got…so I assume he doesn’t rate Rowe and he’s here as first choice right back.

Also confirmed Jem is out for two/three weeks which’ll be a big loss, but glad it’s not the usual 8 weeks!

[Northumbiron]

Maybe Swann thought he was getting Eddie Howe as our next manager, seeing as Cox is off to Wimbledon for a bit of inbreeding!

Strange signing indeed. Wonder who the agent is?

Makes you wonder on what evidence Cox has based his “better than we’ve got”
opinion. Smacks a bit of ‘agent speak’ unless Karacan remembers him from Reading.

[mistertonmick]

Howes dad is a director of Reading FC, so Jem would have probably known both.

[Northumbiron]

Careful Mick, that sounds like nepotism!

[Ironawe]

Sounds like Swann has been golfing during lockdown

[Iron-awe]

More like Teddy Who? Anyway we should not judge till the lad has played a few games but like quite a few others I thought the defence would have been pretty much sorted with Taft signed up and MaGahey approaching full fitness. Does seem a strange signing.

Look on the bright side, ‘he’ misunderstands the definition of nepotism, let’s hope ‘he’ never finds ‘necrophilia’ in the dictionary! ⚰️😜

Nepotism, The practice of those with power or influence of favouring relatives or friends, especially by given them jobs.

[mistertonmick]

That wouldn’t happen at our club.
