John Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 I can accept that he may have represented a cheap option if he has accepted another contract on low wages with a small signing on fee. I am just concerned that we might have used our meagre cash resources elsewhere and I am not sure he is a better option than 19 years old Sarkic who we have loaned to Wigan.

Sarkic went on loan to Wigan last season I don't think he's gone again has he? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob182 Posted July 2, 2018 Share Posted July 2, 2018 (edited) Wasn't Sarkic on the released list, or have I imagined that? Edit: Actually, was it a young Swedish/Norwegian keeper we released? Edited July 2, 2018 by Rob182 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's always done really well whenever asked to play, been sitting on the bench patiently for 5 years about time he got his chance. I think he will prove to be better than Johnstone I just have my doubts which I hope will be proved unfounded. Jed looked good for Huddersfield and decent when he played for us prior to picking up injuries that kept him out of contention for much of the last two seasons. I just hope he can now shake off those injury problems and get back to the form he showed a couple of years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skills Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 saw bogdan going on loan to Hibs, would have been a relatively good option for us without really knowing the costs involved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I would have expected us to sign at least 1 player on a free this summer. Either that or a sale is close and nothing is happening until that is finalised. Fingers crossed.

We're completely fine with Steer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted July 3, 2018 Share Posted July 3, 2018 With Steer and Sarkic, I would think we are ok from what I have seen of both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
