Transfer gossip

[gazan]

Is there any? I know the club have publicly claimed that keeping the loaned players is a the main aim of the window but is anything else in the pipeline?
I don't do social media so any snippets would be welcome.

Sometimes I get to know bits of info. but I am being told nothing at the moment. One thing however, during the MOM presentation after the Carlisle game Conway actually said that Bolton had told him that he could stay for the rest of the season. I am presuming that is great news for all parties involved.

That's good to know!

It's looking reasonably likely that Bolton could be ditching their manager. If so , could this alter the Conway loan situation?
Re. incoming and outgoings has anybody heard any rumours, I've not heard a thing? Quite unusual considering its the 14th of the month.

There is a possibilty of a defender coming in !!!!

[gazan]

Ooh! A right back by any chance?

Was that Connor o riordan sat behind the bench today?

[MeForCrewe]

All the rumours are talking about O'Riordan who apparently was sitting on our bench today. If he is still the same player then I would say that would be a very good move. He would have been very handy today to come on and face the ariel bombardment from Morecambe that they threw at us for the last 20 minutes or so. I dare say that won't be the last time that we receive similar treatment this season. It would also present an opportunity for Billington to go out on loan somewhere and hopefully get a run of games under his belt.
As there is no dedicated thread can I also add that Bogel was absolute class when he came off the bench today, a proper handful.

I have mixed feelings about rumours of O'Riordan coming back. Initially I would love it to be true. However, on 2nd thoughts, what has happened to him since he left. He definitely suffered from the manager who bought him being sacked only weeks after his arrival. As a result what must his head be like? To make matters worse he's sent to a struggling League One team and rarely even makes the matchday squad! Regardless of whether the rumours of his return are true, you have to worry as to whether his experiences have damaged him. We know he had lots of potential but maybe he left too early. In which case the problem is that we have less than half a season to consolidate a promotion place and so cannot afford to nurture someone into realising their potential.
Beyond all that, there is the matter of JKL. Surely with a week and a half of the window left, taking on CO'R would send a negative signal to Bristol City.
One 'positive' would be the opportunity to give Billington a National League loan to give him games instead of bench warming.

Thinking about it, perhaps the return of CO'R would aid MickeyD in his set piece goalscoring. However, JKL has started to contribute in that area too!
