The Apprentice for Torquay United

Post by Rossi Martin »

As the apprentice returned this week which one out of these 12 new signings would you keep and why.

I know some are on two year deals but lets ignore that for now. Also who would you fire each week and say which reason why

Players are:

Ryan Clarke, Liam Davis, Ryan Higgins, Josh Gowling, Pitman, Jake Gosling, James Gray, Yan Klukowski, Ryan Osborn, Vincent Doral, George Dowling and Rory Fallon

Enjoy

Fire none of them, because they are all good enough (except the one who has already gone so can't be sacked).

George dowling. If he carries on playing the way i have seen in in 3 matches so far at senior level ,he will be worth a fortune for us in a few years time.

It's not a good time to talk about sacking players leave it to the manager.

Fallon has left the Club, George Dowling is a Youth Loan from Bristol City, and a brilliant one, and Osborn has gone on loan to Barnstable Town to get match experience.
The remaining 9 have proved to be very good signings with one exception Klukowski.

He has been a major disappointment to date but hopefully Gary Owers can get him up to speed because he has loads of experience and should be more than capable at this level. Time will tell IF he can get in the team which is the big question.

I can't believe what I'm reading !!! Was it only two weeks ago that I was reading on here that all those close season signings were useless injury-prone crocks? Now they're good enough or very good signings. Ah - fickle fans !! Not that I'm suggesting Portugull or Monkeyboy said they were useless signings. They have a better knowledge about football than than.
