JeanieD Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 As regards Eccleston - strange how circular football can be (no pun intended): From Wiki On 22 September 2010, Eccleston missed in a penalty shoot out of the 3rd Round of the League Cup against Northampton Town. It was the last kick from a Liverpool player as Abdul Osman scored the deciding spot kick for Northampton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Legend Blows Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 Welcome, both. Hope they're decent. Can't say I've ever seen them although I've heard of Eccleston. Hopefully we can bring another in - two would be ideal but don't see that happening. With 6 goals in 60 career games he should be good for at least 3 goals come May. With Archie never playing 2 strikers and Archie's 1st and 2nd picks being Doolan/Stevenson I boldly predict 1 goal for Eccleston and a free transfer in May 2015.

l'escardot Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 (edited) A fine Scottish welcome! Aye - both a glass half full or a glass half empty is way too optimistic for some of the posters on here - when confronted by a glass of any content - the knee jerk isn't even - "who the feck left that glass there?". But "I blame Archie, if only he wasn't so naive we'd have whole canteens ready and waiting already, one glass just isn't good enough" "We're doomed" Edited August 29, 2014 by l'escardot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowenBoys Posted August 29, 2014 Report Share Posted August 29, 2014 A fine Scottish welcome! Dear Mr. Nixon, in time you will come to know that The Legend Blows Out Of His Arse. I have discovered a useful feature on the forum which allows me to ignore his/her posts. However, if you quote him/her the drivel appears. Please don't.

Good to see we have open and balanced discussion on here. Must be nice for the clowns on here who only ever see the nice happy clappy comments. Shock horror! I have a negative opinion about the mediocre unproven players we have signed/been linked with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a player be both mediocre and unproven. Surely if they are mediocre then by definition they have been proven? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Murray Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Had a quick look on the forums about Jake Carroll. Looks like he did well in the games he has played for Huddersfield town. Nathan Eccleston looks like a bit of a risk if he has signed. Apparently very quick and strong. His lack of goals in a worry though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneteaminglasgow Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 Huddersfield supporting mate says that caroll has looked good in the games he's played and thinks that while he's not quite ready to hold down a place in the championship he's more than good enough for lower half spfl premiership.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 30, 2014 Report Share Posted August 30, 2014 I was quite impressed with the guy today. Perhaps not the hardest position to come into not knowing your teammates. Even so I doubt anyone watching today not au fait with us would have thought that was his debut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Willjag Posted September 1, 2014 Members Report Share Posted September 1, 2014 Quote from Jake on the OS... “I’m on loan at the moment but I’m just looking to impress the manager and get as many games under my belt as possible. I’m really looking forward to it so we’ll just have to see how we go.” Maybe on loan with a view to making it permanent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
