Elliott Durrell signs
« on: June 23, 2015, 05:27:47 PM »

For Tamworth!!

I know it's local for him, but I thought he'd get a gig higher than conf north. That is a cracking signing for them.

I thought he'd do great for us, but hey ho, hopefully someone else is lined up!

Think he's selling himself a wee bit short there myself too. His choice.

Would have liked him to sign but is he that much better than lawrie ?similar player more attacking miidfielder than striker.Andy Bishop has gone to Halifax , wouldnt be surprised if we dont get another striker and use the loan system if need be

using the loan system is not something Lee does.

It looks to me like he prefers to build a small and tight knit squad, rather than rely on loans

The interview posted on the official site last night suggests to me that he would prefer not to use loan players if possible. I think we'll sign another striker before the season gets underway.

I may be less than popular for saying this - but I'm pleased we didn't sign the obnoxious, arrogant little cheat. I'd rather have eleven honest men in my side.

What did you think of John King back in the day?

They're only cheats when they play for the other side

Point taken to a degree - however, Kingy was (& probably still is) a Scouse scally & there's a certain sense of humour with them, which enables me for one to turn a blind eye in some ways. I will say that I never saw Kingy practically catch a ball, cuddle it to his midriff, let it drop & then carry on, score and celebrate like he was some kind of genius; I also never saw him in a posse surrounding the referee & demanding that an opposing player be sent off. In case anyone thinks I'm being one-sided, I never saw him punch the ball into the net & claim a goal, or net a rebound off the advertising hoardings & claim a goal either. Kingy wasn't a saint - far from it, just like the rest of us - but there have been many worse offenders.

Everybody disliked Perry when he came here (me included)
However when he left he was something of a cult hero both on and off the pitch to some of the fans....

Players like Durrell and Brodie are obnoxious T**ts. However they are decent players and if either did end up at Alty the majority of fans would welcome them with open arms... (Me not included)

Back in 2005/6 i had a dislike of Yannick Bolasie when he was at Rushden & Diamonds as a young lad when he put Robbie Lawton out for a while .. He has moved on and is now a decent player at Palace. I still don't like him but that's just the way I am... I don't deny he is a good player though...

I would have been very happy doing a swap last season which allowed Gillespie to take up a player/coach role at Southport, in exchange for a proven goalscorer and all round general nuisance who nearly always has the 'last laugh' at opposition supporters

Bar two obvious examples, list better strikers that have played for Alty in the last ten seasons
