Al B Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Nobody had a clue who Moult was when we brought him in. All we need to do is the same again. (This scouting lark is a doddle). That's not true, I did. Got a text from my mate from Stoke saying "I hear you've just signed a guy I play 5's with?" 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ya Bezzer! Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Its clear that we need Moult to score goals. I don't know what our scoring record is when he hasn't played but suspect its not that impressive. Posted on P&B yesterday but I was looking at this and we've not scored a goal in the last 5 league matches Moult hasn't played. In the 10 league games over the last two seasons, Moult hasn't started, ie came on as a sub, or didn't feature at all, we've scored 6 goals when he's not been on the pitch. Not great then.

wellowell Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 I think everybody will be surprised with fee we receive fir Moult as I fully expect him to go to QPR with fee being 500K plus in January as championship clubs can afford it and they are desperate for a goal scorer . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burn_Broomfield Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Our (very apparent) problem is that we have 2 Ryan Bowman's. We have Bowman when he plays with Moult and can look a handful. The we have Bowman without Moult and he doesn't look like he's ever played football before. If Moult does go, then we need to be looking at signing a minimum of 2 strikers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles & Flippers Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 Turning on my cynical hat here but could the injury to Moult be inflated to ensure he's sidelined and comes to a new employer (deal maybe already agreed) without any possibility of being unavailable? Just saying there may be more to this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wellowell Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 You could be spot on as heard fee agreed and its a lot more that you would expect with being out of contract in summer and if correct hes London bound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe Craig Clay has put a word in for him at Orient ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowman might be off too. Can sign a pre contract as his deal is up in the summer as well. (Or have I got that completely wrong?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus, if Moult didn't want to relocate his family, it's not too far away. Much closer than Brighton was for McGhee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 The record have a line in their version that they are to "test" us with a bid in Jan. £500k is mentioned but rumours suggest it's a bit lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fizoxy Posted December 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Im surprised they havent picked up on the QPR link yet, considering it was mentioned on their number one source a while ago. Are they waiting for it to be corroborated on FPC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goggles & Flippers Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Come January my shopping list would be (in order): 1./ Replacement for Moult regardless if he leaves then or not 2./ Tie up Hartley 3./ Bring in Defensive cover 4./ Encourage McHugh to find his form 5./ Determine if Plummer is first team material 6./ Ask Santa to gift some extra composure to Kipre and Dunne You would hope there would be a little cash with the cup run to make a 50k punt here or a 100k punt there like we did with Moult and Marvin, look how that panned out. A couple of things seem to result in a good ROI in the current environment and are easily marketable are speed, workrate and as always ... goals. Technique sadly is not so important. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted December 12, 2017 Report Share Posted December 12, 2017 Move on either Bowman or Fisher and Bigi (if possible). Bring in a new striker or two and a creative central midfielder depending on departures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
