A Uraguayan international who is so good he now plays for a 3rd division side in the same team as the some bloke from falkirk Yeah because he can't get a game with the same premiership team as Marshall.......widely acknowledged as one of the best players in our league this season! ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) I dont think we can take anything from marshalls performances. Fact is that marshall looked hungry as well as good. Attitude as important as ability. If he went to Stoke for 2.4m and is on a good contract, he might be happy partying and getting paid rather than taking Town to glory. Hope not, but we cant judge until we see him play a few games. Hopefully he wants to prove himself.

Those who think Atkinson, Crooks & Higginbotham should not be on my list are (to put it politely) clearly forgetting that Atkinson could not get in Darlington's first XI, Crooks is at Halifax (when if you're good enough, you're old enough) & H'botham has not been selected by 2 succeessive managers (so he must be good!)

We've heard of him mate, he certainly isnt a Georgie Donis or a Zico! I remember them signing him and have seen bits of him at Stoke, Brighton and Barnsley. He's had a couple of crackers in Europe for Stoke! This lad has the ability, he just needs to settle into his groove! Hopefully that will come at our place!

Yep, Dean Gorre was shit :spaz: At the same time, who knows, let's just wait and see and hope he settles in fast. Also, at least it sounds like Grayson has gone for what we need, rather than putting his players in positions we are already relatively strong.

NB: George Donis wasn't a nobody, he had a blinder for Panathanakos against Man U in Europe. He was an unmitigated disaster for us though!

I remember pretty well. The complaint about Atkinson at Darlington was that his style of play was unsuited to Darlo and the Conference in general. I recall him appearing against Dagenham last year - and did rather well (started against Yeovil too, if I recall - but was subbed following Peltier's red). Seems to disappeared though, to be honest :unsure: Crooks has been playing academy football all this season and is barely 18. It's incredibly harsh to call him crap on the back of the fact that he's on loan at Halifax. Jack Hunt was on loan at Hyde two years ago - I presume you'd have called him crap back then? Players progress at different levels - I mean bloody hell, Didier Drogba didn't really get noticed until his mid to late twenties.

Is this lad in the squad today? His resume sounds more than adequate for a third tier team : ![thumbup](//storage.proboards.com/2448479/images/ULmTf1jwiiTrUdwPLEMP.gif) : . I just hope that he is more of the the defensive midfielder that the Tyke described than the attacking midfielder many seem to have ordained him; seemingly just because he has a name that suggests he will be greasy & wear gloves. Hit the ground running fella : ![scarf](//storage.proboards.com/2448479/images/OXlH1cyPkglB6CQ5O9oB.gif) :
