    But our board have said our head coach has full control over transfers and we don't have a permanent person in place so either......

    1) Board have more say than they say.
    2) We are close to announcing a long term head coach.
    3) Nixon doesn't know what he's on about.

    I think it's pretty safe to say Hecky is going to be appointed first team coach on a full time basis

    Quite possibly the most feeble midfielder I've ever clapped eyes on, physically I mean. He'd blow over in the wind. But such a talented lad, technically sound. He's certainly worth a trial.

    This guy can play. But think Diego Leon. Probably wont make it but has the potential to be a very good player in league one.

    Haha. I'd forgot all about him. Fair shout.

    But I'd prefer Holmes, in terms of our current system. He operates deeper. More of a dictator/passer than a scorer/trickster.

    And when all's said and done, I'll trust Hecky and co to know what they're doing rather than my thoughts. I work in a factory. :D

    Is he another player Hudds can't develop? Like Hammill?

    Hammill wasn't released by Huddersfield because of talent or developmental reasons.

    That sounds like a description of Kenny Brown who had a pair of match sticks for legs. Once saw him boss the game against West Ham. Cracking laiker.
