Stranger things have happened; don't ask, don't get; nothing ventured, nothing gained etc etc. One presumes the transfer window, in engerlund, is still open if you're signing an unattached player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League 1 and League 2 transfer window open until 2nd September. I think unattached players can sign anytime? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MenstrieSaint Posted August 13, 2019 Report Share Posted August 13, 2019 If we were to be able to add a couple of players I would go for a striker and Popescu . Would set us up well for a top 6 challenge . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, Bony is based in South Wales so is likely just using Newport's facilities. He's the sort of guy who could show up at a Rangers or Celtic as clearly will still believe his reputation and goalscoring record, coupled with the fact he's only 30 could still net him at least £20-25k a week comfortably. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure the Popescu thing is over, it was a long time ago, and will continue to be unless he becomes a free agent. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We still need a 4th CB - even if we have to wait till January, and assuming we don't get one or more injured or suspended... unless McLoughlin signs an extension and all 3 stay fit . . . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will also need a left back in January as Calum Waters will likely return to Killie - particularly as he looks very good. Not great having to rebuild the defence at a crucial point in the season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doakes Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 I get the feeling Waters is a short term fix for a long term problem. Celtic will no doubt take Taylor from Killie and Waters will be needed back there. Left back must be high on the shopping list for January 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waters is under contract to Killie for the next 2 years so cannot sign for us in January unless he is released from that contract. The guy himself said he expects to return to Killie at the end of the season. That does make things difficult. The situation may change but at the moment it is a non starter. And if we are playing about with ifs then if Killie sell Taylor then Waters may be recalled in January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted August 14, 2019 Report Share Posted August 14, 2019 In Calum's interview on Buddievision, he states that he has a "couple of years" left at Kilmarnock and that he will be going back there. That would indicate that his contract is up in 2021. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one of you guys should tell Waters that as he has stated in a recorded interview on Buddievision that his contract with Killie ends in 2021 and he expects to return there when he is finished with Saints. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
