He did add that bit of, I cannot find an expression, but he gave us width and could take the ball past players on the wing!

Next year we need ball to feet, for the likes of Larkin!

Quite likely! If he can be reasonably consistent then he would be a very good player for us. He was very impressive against MK Dons. He really gave 100%. More of that and I would be happy to keep him.

Actually David Larkin's got to start looking like a striker to keep his place up front. As such he might be more likely to get a game out wide which would mean in direct competition with Hurst if he is signed. Also Hurst has failed to get balls to the feet of Larkin for the most part of last season which seems to be part of your argument as to why he is a "must".

I'd like to think that we sign two strikers, MacF has approached three, so with young Jamie Jackson also competing for a place alongside Paul Hall, Chief & Caleb there could be a lot of competition in that area

Roy said on Peak FM during the phone-in last Saturday that Sheff Un manager Neil Warnock is not making any decisions about any of his players until he has fully sorted out his first team squad for next season.

Sorry Geoff but if Hursty wasn't good enough for there championship campaign he won't be good enough for the premier league either,i bet he is relishing playing in the reserves !

I don't think Warnock is thinking like that.

He's going to get his 1st team sorted, with players to fill in every position, before he decides what to do with the likes of Hursty, either loan out or sell.

Like i said his plans won't include Hurst,Warnock will probably buy in.

Obviously, else they'll be down by Xmas.

Its whether he wants him out on loan or just going to sell him, he wants some of pre-season to see if Kev can progress I presume, before deciding.

Why are we in such a rush to sign all the players that helped us to a worse points tally than last season (when we were poor once more)?

Considering the abysmal run of form shouldnt we looking elsewhere for new players considering that if the season had been a few games longer we would have probably been relegated?

[skaw]

Not to bothered about hursty, would prefer us to sign a true left winger. Is partridge been snapped up by anone yet? Or maybe this is a slot to keep loaning for, Lee Martin from man utd? quality youngsters available for loan whereas few available on free transfer. thinking about it did Newcastles O'Brien get released this year? Still think striker and midfield general should be next targets after a keeper....

i think that is a fair point T.F although certain factors may? disagree
can we afford hurst on 700 p.w, bearing in mind warnock prob won't foot 500 pw like he did last season twds the wages

kev did have his moments but needs to sharpen his act up..... although given the choice between him & adam, well........

roy has good contacts in the game, has made some shrewd signings/loanees in the past.... have faith
if we get phil pick, that will be an fabulous capture.... will keep one of our far-eastern supporters happy, that's for sure !!!!

happy searching roy
p.s any chance of t'cham getting another chance?

Sky Sports News were reporting on their scrolling news at the bottom that he is in talks with Chester.

With regard to Hursty he did well in his first spell and really made a difference but when he came back for his second spell he was good on a consistent basis and for some reason he hasnt got the fitness to last 90mins, how many games that he started was he subbed when he faded out of the game as his fitness disappeared.
