Been training with Town but fell through on medical grounds?

Over to those on the know lol

That's the second one this window to fail a medical.
Do you know who does our medicals, is it in house or do we use a third party?

Any timescale been mentioned for his return?
I think I read Grigg was end of Feb. McFadz was possibly tail end of season, but if he gets another contract he'll probably not be risked so good to go next season.
Just don't recall a mention for young Harvey.

I don't think I've seen anything on here, but supposed font of all knowledge told me that Harvey could be back before the end of February, but I've been had before, but there must be good reason that we haven't tried to cancel his loan. I would like to think there's some truth in what he told me.

I haven't a clue! Just like others here second hand gossip, sometimes not far off sometimes fantasy.

Not medical

Presumably trying to push through a deal with a club in another country is not the easiest and quickest thing to do on deadline day.

So Ernie can we agree that he was indeed at the club? just complications arose?

[warfey is a spireite]

Did he arrive on a ski

The Canadian CB was definitely training / trialing with us the last few weeks. We potentially pulled the plug as the McFadz scan looks worse than what the injury actually is. Potentially back in 6 weeks. Dunks 8 weeks potentially also.

We can?t cancel the loan. Too late

Sorry but the last bit about the scan looking worse so we pulled the plug on the new lad doesn?t make sense.

[ash_cfc]

Edited. Apologies. Basically.. the injury isn?t as bad as what the scan makes it look like. Not very scientific I know.

Big boost if true. Back in time for a favourable run in. Just need to keep in touch with the top 7.

None of this makes much sense to me. We cancelled a transfer of reportedly 100K on the basis of McFadzeans?s injury isn?t as bad as a scan indicated. Even if he is back in 6 weeks surely he is a stop gap and the Canadian was an investment for the future. It has also been said he has been training with us for a few weeks.

perhaps it was down to how the fee was to be paid?

Nobody said we cancelled a transfer because Kyle is back sooner than anticipated. It was merely suggested as a reason.

Well I'm guessing the Canadians not signing and McFadzs injury are not realeated? Ones injured, ones fallen through for unforseen reasons.
Oh well.

I assume we payed for him to come over and train. Although it is close season I see they are playing Monterrey in the Concacaf Cup on Thursday evening so he should have been prepping for that
