Comes across as Bitter.

Delighted that we've finally got him. Read he was captain at Hyde. Always good to have a conf north winner and leader in the sqaud

Always rated him when I saw him and very pleased to have got him. 

I'll take no notice of any stats for this season, bit of a freak season at Hyde and I am sure a lot going on behind the scenes that make it an rather dispiriting place.

Welcome to Alty Adam...

Didn't think they were particularly bitter comments. Essentially they seem to agree that he was very good in the promotion season and also important the year they stayed up, but hasn't played well this season. A couple of them proffer the idea his morale might be shot playing in such a dreadful team this season, which seems a reasonable explanation.

Anyway, we needed a player and we've got one. You never know, this terrible season in which we're languishing down in 4th - 4 points behind the leaders with a game in hand - might not be over after all  :o :o :o

Welcome Adam to a positive club where you will have a new challenge to look forward to and will get lots of support from the club and its fans.

I'm sure you are looking forward to a fresh start as it cant have been much fun this season results-wise.

Welcome to Alty Adam...

I said this about Brian Smikle!!!

Welcome to Alty Adam and hopefully you'll settle in quickly and prove your worth.

A good signing. Tomorrow's friendly will give him a bit of time to get settled, and hopefully there will also be a trialist or two on display, as one or two more are definitely needed.

Get what you mean but not sure you really get mid season trialists though, as they would have to be unattached. I reckon the next signing will be a loan.

Southport will be playing to impress the new boss tomorrow so it's a tough test I think.

Good news, welcome Adam.

I'd put him straight in for Smikle and move Buzz forward, his crossing at Gloucester was the only threat we had, at least until Nicky's back

Good news , he can play anywhere on the left , so replacement for Nicky , leave Buzz where he is .

Welcome Adam. Always held you in high regard.

Anyone know what Lee's plans are re where he'll play him and who he'll replace?

Left or centre half though to drop nicky clee would be very odd surely he is here as a left back or centre half

I assume ASMO assumed Nicky still to be injured. In which case its exactly what Id do...
