Quoted from jamesgtfc

Gallimore would be a good signing but I do find it weird that he's right footed.


Do we know he would be a good signing? He's made a dozen appearances in a team which finished rock bottom of the Football League, most of them towards the end of the season when they were as good as down (and knew it) and so were deliberately playing youngsters. If he's half the player of his Dad, he'll be a decent prospect but I'm not really sure we have the evidence that he would be a good signing right at this moment. Nothing wrong sentimentally wanting him to play for GTFC after his Dad's sterling service, of course. You'd tend to hope he'd look after himself a bit better because most players can't perform to a high standard without the correct, erm, diet and lifestyle!

Scunny fan on one of the other forums when I asked him about the Shrimpton rumours:
"If you were to take one of our young players I would be surprised if it was Shrimpton based on the end of last season, I thought he was the worst out the young players who featured. I think Dan Galimore, another CM we have, is much better."

Much better than the worst of the young players of the worst team in the Football League might not be good enough!

Difficult for these Scunny youngsters, I suppose, as a lot are going to be thrown in at the deep end next season against some very experienced professionals. Our players still in their teens have barely made an appearance between them yet, though I'd imagine we'll see them perhaps introduced a bit more as the season progresses or, failing that, in the Chuckatrade Cup or whatever it is called these days.

Young Gally told me after the Clee game he would love to sign for Town.
No idea if he's any good though...

I would fear for some youngsters being thrown in to the National League.....

A young centre half against the forward line at Woking/Solihull or a young striker against the defence at Maidenhead or Halifax. Men against boys.

That big lump at Notts Cty with the mullet would break a callow youth in half.


Miss Scunthorpe. Not a beauty pageant, just sound advice.
