I seem to remember him signing Benno, what a great addition that was! Who else did he sign that year?

Ben Davies later was signed by Liverpool to cover CB injuries. Perhaps Sheridan wasn't that bed after all...

It was Sheridan who brought Benno in on loan and,it was Sheridan who released Benno when he took over at Notts County.

Quite a contribution eh? Which is why I started this post
Debate. Did our kinsman Flynny keep us up later by adding the magic ingredient „ Pride in the Port „ ???

You've forgot his two best signings.

I'm sure Demetriou and O' Brien were brought in by him as well...I maybe wrong but I'm pretty sure I am correct

If he did, then well , Salut! I completely agree , fantastic!

Hmm ..... Weren't they in Westley's time?

Checking on it...your correct.

For all the abuse Westley got , without his signings Flynn wouldn't have had a chance to save us from the drop.

Westley had an eye for a player but couldn't put a winning team out on the pitch.
Flynn's signings left a lot to be desired but he got the best out of the players we had at the club . For every good player he signed you could also say he signed some complete dross. Then again if you had the scatter gun approach of signing loads of players by the laws of averages your bound to unearth a few gems.
When everything was going well Flynn was a good man manager and got the best out of players. When things started going against his plans he is quick enough to throw them under a bus and never take responsibility. He took praise when it was going good but when things didn't go well it was never down to him.

Yes,Flynny would say that he wants quality over quantity but then do the opposite and sign bodies,some who didn’t play at all or,some who hardly did.GC has said that he doesn’t want to sign players for the sake of it and,have them an unused substitute or sat in the stand.So far,he has kept to his word and not panicked into duff signings.I agree,unless a player is going to make a difference then,don’t sign dross.

I'm not entirely sure about GC not signing dross. We've not really seen enough of Jameson (due to injury) to make a decision on him and Maxted really isn't the best back up GK to have. In his defence his budget won't have been great this season so he could be forgiven for signing 'cheap' back up players to make up the numbers in the short term...

Jameson looked class when fit, no way is he cheap back up. Thing is GC may have had to take a chance on him being made of glass.

I suppose Percy is strictly correct as he says "GC has said that he doesn’t want to sign players for the sake of it and,have them an unused substitute or sat in the stand'. GC hasn't done that - Jameson has been stuck in the treatment room...
