Really can't see the rationale in signing jason crookes unless he is very cheap

Great effort and great application by the lads tonight. Sky reporting that McGoldrick has dislocated his shoulder (our injury jinx strikes again) ! I'm not a medical specialist and i don't want to put a downer on things but that could be a massive injury for a guy his age. Just wonder if it might have a major bearing on his possible retention for next year ??

didn't this sort of injury finish sean long off last season as well?

wouldn't be surprised if Goldie didn't play again this season which is a real shame

They said on commentary at the start of the second half that he wanted to come back on and play! Gentle wouldn't let him.

Once you've popped your shoulder i think it can have a propensity to re-occur again and again unless you have some kind of operation. Didn't Westerman go under the knife for similar injury this season and miss about 3 months ? I think in Long's case it was a dislocated elbow though i might be totally wrong.

We shouldnt be signing people on the basis of one good performance - if we did that Turner would have been signed up after the Derby.

Ogre has been pretty poor for most of the year

Tripe - IMO of course.

hope rumours about signing crookes and elima are just that.

crookes no better than sharp defensively.. Elima is just a penalty machine, poor discipline

No better than Lineham offensively (in my opinion).

In all fairness to Crookes whether we sign him or not what chance did he actually have to show his talents in the game tonight ? Barely any.

Based on what I've seen from both of them he's not in the same league as Lineham.
