My understanding was that TA being a football agent had an excellent series of connections globally.
I am trying to remember whom he brought in and have probably missed a few but:
The good:
Jeando Fuchs - probably our best midfielder
Ryan Edwards - solid centre half and a threat at set pieces
Lawrence Shankland - great signing
Liam Smith - solid and consistent right back
The average
Adrian Sporle - can be hit or miss
Mark Connolly - tries really hard but prone to a huge mistake that usually leads to a goal
Mark Reynolds - had some ok games but can be slow and lethargic
Luke Bolton - was on a loan and started okay but fell out of favour very quickly after a few poor / avg performances
mark McNulty - felt for him as seemed to be played out of position a lot though seemed to come on t a game towards the end of his loan spell
The not v good:
Peter Pawlett - I struggle to remember him having a good game and not being injured. Was surprised we gave him a new deal.
Osman Sow - a trier but was injured a lot and struggled
Dillon Powers - the master of the negative pass though he did score a screamer
Adam King - can only remember a few sub appearances for him but cant remember him doing anything
He was that anonymous that i thought King was signed before this era! Think Aiden Nesbitt was also part of the initial recovery plan and where is Harkes?
I think a very good section can be added that contains Edwards and Fuchs
The good contains Shankland, but through no fault of his and i would put Reynolds in there as well. McNulty just scrapes it in here as its wasnt his fault to be played out of position.
Average, im more inclined to put L Smith in there the more time goes by, and i would have put Sporle up to good if he played more.
I consider so many as not very good though, and Harkes, Connolly, Pawlett, Bolton and Powers(as much as i liked him!) were/are all bang average.
King, Nesbitt and Sow, deary me!
A bit sketchy i admit but a story has emerged today that Tony threatened a punter in hospitality today(A Publican),i don't have any further details but apparently he has been reported but who to?,nae idea.
