Claudio Fannieri Posted 26 July Posted 26 July Middlesboro as yet have not filled that Hayden Hackney sized hole in there midfield and Norwich who also hold an interest, haven’t signed a midfielder so let’s hope we can tie up an acceptable deal either permanent or loan with an option/obligation this week.
ceebeefox Posted 26 July Posted 26 July 1 hour ago, MC Prussian said: I agree. What sticks from last season with regards to Skipp is him running around a lot. That's it. Doesn't win tackles, doesn't block, doesn't get into it, doesn't come up with assists, can't score (although I don't expect this from him, given his position on the field). No long balls, either. He's a bit like a ghost. We literally just pay him for appearing. Should he stay, I expect a LOT more from him, needs to have more impact on the pitch. Maybe him being so utterly ineffective is also down to bad coaching in the past. I agree with most of that, but he did block and tackle. Still he has been the poorest of poor signing.
Muzzy_no7 Posted 26 July Posted 26 July This will have to be a loan. No one is paying the 12m required. If he’s loaned out with at least the majority of his wages covered, even without an option to buy while we bring Archie Collins In…good business.

I think it’ll be a late in the window loan with option to one of those two. Perhaps with someone coming on loan in return.

This reminded me that he played for them. It could be a good move for him as he did well there before and I'd imagine their fans like him. It's fair to say we've never seen him this happy.. 1

honeybradger Posted 26 July Posted 26 July Relegations for Middlesbrough/Norwich and Cagliari looking like a pretty good combined bet for next season. 2
Popular Post adejo92 Posted 3 August Popular Post Posted 3 August Anything to get him off the wage bill. I am not actually too mad at him staying if he plays like he did towards the end of the season...but even then, the wages are likely too steep. 5
Popular Post Bluearmyfox28 Posted 3 August Popular Post Posted 3 August Get him gone & get Archie Collins in. 7
GrobyLCFC31 Posted 3 August Posted 3 August Get him gone and trust Tommy Neale this season, impressed in pre-season and I’m sure he’ll be full of confidence Leaves you options of: Neale Choudhury Braybrooke Page Chaplin Cullen Alves 2 1
Wasyls Pec Deck Posted 3 August Posted 3 August I’d keep him, but anyone worth anything needs to go to address the dire finances and mess that our overlords have put us in

em9999 Posted 3 August Posted 3 August I wouldnt just get rid of him for the sake of it .. would rather see complete trash like Thomas and faes gone 😕 Skipp would probably have a good season in div 1 2
em9999 Posted 3 August Posted 3 August Only let him go if its a loan with obligation to buy and we ain't paying his wage
moore_94 Posted 3 August Author Posted 3 August Selling your best player and captain to Wrexham for just £3m and then trying to replace him with Skipp has gotta suck for Preston fans We are incredibly unlikely to be able to sell him because of the value left on him so hopefully we can get a loan fee and his wages covered Then get Archie Collins in for free
TheGoldenGod Posted 3 August Posted 3 August Urgh....who loans from teams below them btw...course it would happen to us! You loan from clubs above your station and buy from below. Tell Preston to fork 8-10m or do one!
