Sounds decent but why are we still getting players on loan? Shouldn’t we be buying players or is that the plan for summer?

Hopefully Chris can create a few more goal scoring opportunities for our strikers and chip in with a few himself. :scarf: :scarf: Enjoy your football Chris.

Spider senses tell me this is going to be a good one. Anybody who has a strength in creating scoring opportunities is likely to offer something that is currently in short supply.

Finally a proper winger; looks a good signing on paper

He only signed a one year contract at the start of the year so I presume we have him until the end of the season and then if all is well we will sign him in the summer on a free

What different does it make? If he signed permanently, it would likely be until the end of the season anyway.

Looks good, what’s the reason he isn’t getting into Burys first team? Anyone know? Injury? Wrong system? As a side note I went to see Bury on Boxing Day as I was in the area and they are utterly terrible.

Change of manager since he was signed. Presumably his face just doesn't fit there.
