Pools have signed Leon McSweeney from Stockport.Sorry for my ignorance but Who???????

He is anthony sweenys' Scotish Brother

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leon_McSweeney

Saw a link for the Northen Echo earlier saying we have enquired about him and Westwood. Good signing if thats true!

Stockport fans rate him, freebie too.
Scored against us earlier in the season.
It's on our and their official sites now.

Attacking mid, good signing i like it.

good signing,but i think we need what is it now? a goalkeeper, unless we are playing three pots in

we're playing mergies and russians next season so we're ok.

The chance to sign a good young right winger comes up and we take it and someone still moans

brilliant signing for nowt. Does this mean Boyd and Brown upfront then

Looks like they'll both be competing for the same position as well...

Sweeney is a good midfielder with a lot of running in him, but his first touch, final ball and finishing does let him down a bit, if this guy gives him competition for his place, that's only good news for us.

concurring.

Is there a live Stockport forum?

In his interview he has been playing right back and 5 goals from that position too!

According to Sky fon Williams is also available at Stockport on a free and will be with a new club by the end of the month

Is this a cartwheel signing then?

I'd say a forward roll signing.

Possibly a nandstand.

a little bird tells me we could have signed more than one player from stockport

Howay Mutley! It's how us Poolies say a handstand!

pm?

No OFW

Fon-Williams would be a good signing

Just seen the news - McSweeney looks like a good signing.

it made the 6 oclock news?
must be good!

I keep hearing we are signing Danny Rose who is Stockport's left back and if i remmeber correctly done well against us this season so i will be happy with that and happy the fact Turner is adddressing the full back positions and signing people who are naturally full backs. Looking good up until now, keep up the good work CT.

I don't want to cast any doubt on the lad's ability, but he'll have been helped by our not playing a right winger.

He looks like a really, enthusaistic, smart, hard-working type of guy. I hope he can bring something to the team.

I'm sensing a new enthusiastic, optimstic start for the new season. This can only be a good thing.

Well done Turner !

he will soon get that knocked out of him

Take a look at your signature and it looks like your calling yourself a plonker

I only put it on there because it's a wittyy quote from Voltaire.

oooh get you! you go girlfriend

Like Compo says your signature says a witty saying proves nothing, so your contradicting yourself.

But being enthusaistic has nothing to do with wit, so I'm not.

Well, that's why we needed to replace Scott in the end - he must have lost the plot by the time he said that.

Thanks for stating the obvious (cue the rolling eyes and the laugh on the floor smiley)

err yes you are, we are not saying that the context or the meaning of the comment is causing the contradiction but the fact you used a (in your own words) a witty comment does.

some of you really need to give your heads a wobble. Leave the lad alone for fooks sake. i have seen dogs that are treated better

LOL Muttley, do you just have a hard drive full of dog photos????
