2016/17 Perth Glory Thread-20 Years of Glory..Castro for Premier!

[BALKAN]

We've recruited English defender Joseph Mills from Oldham Athletic (League One)

 

[gaskin]

Jerard Tyson has left as well which seems to me like we are bringing in a new keeper.

 

[Carbine Chaos]

Mills is a gun for me with Southampton on FM10.

Based on this alone I approve of the move.

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Get a decent keeper and somehow hang on to Castro and that's a decent squad for next season. I don't like these Reddy rumours. Someone for Rizzo and Keogh to drink with I guess but he's a disruptive twat.

 

[gaskin]

Not sure how true it is but I'll post it anyway:

pls be reality

Fox Sports is reporting Castro has agreed to another year and we are hoping to announce it later this week.

Looks like all the desperate gossip about buying houses etc was right. A massive relief when it's made official.

Apart from a keeper and some of those sick note signings staying fit it looks like we're going to be very serviceable next season. We may have a chance to win the thing. Just a shame we lost Sandor.

Too late I've already got my DIego Castro neck tattoo booked in

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Sage was on 6PR last night saying the signing is 99% done. Must be waiting for the iron ore price to go up a bit.

 

[gaskin]

Fixtures released. Start and end the season with back to back home games.

Yippee!

gotta wait till Jan to face the VIctory at home though. That sucks.

 

[BALKAN]

Its official

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Fantastic news. We just need luck with injuries now and we're set.

 

[gaskin]

Beautiful.

 

[BALKAN]

Pretty solid squad for this season. Wish we had a better keeper though.

We're a massive chance to win the whole thing. Just can't take half a season to kick into gear again.

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

It took half a season to recover from Sage's corporate fraud the season before and for the new CEO to put things in the right direction.

Would be disappointed if that happened this season.

 

[XXRL]

Pretty pumped for next season actually.

The paper said that Glory's priority now is to sign a starting keeper. Hopefully that happens soon.

Otherwise I guess we could do with some reinforcement in centre mid given Sandor is gone, and maybe left back as well.

 

[Mr_Bojangles]

Doubt we could afford/fit Birra so we might have to go a journeyman. We'd have some spare visa spots now though with the cheap eastern European labour leaving.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

You guys should be right up there for top 4 next season with the squad you're forming together. Djulbic, Grant, Risdon, Herd, Rhys Williams, Marinkovic, Castro, Keogh, Taggart, Harold. Geez, that's strong. Probably need another keeper and lacking a DM but apart from that it's looking good. I guess eveeyone says that about the Glory every pre-season and it never turns out the best for you guys but with a squad like that top 4 is a must.

Kenny has had his contract extended
