Darren Witcoop announcing we're now leading race for Rak Sayki

Would be a great signing fair play I could see an option to buy In there as well.

Rizespor Coach Recep Uçar: "Rak-Sakyi's contract had a recall option for Crystal Palace, and they exercised it. But right now, there's nothing clear; it will become clear in 1-2 days." Jesurun Rak-Sakyi had 4 goals and 1 assist in the 11 matches he played for Rizespor this season.

Doubt it I remember Saints having 10+mill bids rejected in the summer.

Anyone have any ideas how his loan went there?

Always makes me nervous when we are leading a race, feels like just waiting for someone with more mula to come in and offer better.

10 starts, 3 off the bench. Subbed off 6 times. No goals and no assists.

Hardly any game time for them, Rovers are struggling 20th in the table .

Last season did really well at Swindon .

I would think that would be to loan him somewhere else rather than consider him for the first team then?

I'll be honest I haven't watched a single Falkirk game so I'm just basing this on the rave reviews he's getting over there but wouldn't it just be better to call back Lissah and use him as a RB then sign 36yr old Joel Ward?

I think he needed a full season of men’s football at a good level. He’s getting that now and it’s a win-win.
Casey and Parker should be covering Key.

We are restricted financially in this window given we virtually used up everything in the summer window. It won't be helped with Nzingo, Watts returning and Cotterill being sent back back by his loan club.
Ward if he comes in, will come in relatively cheap and can cover centre half which might be needed with certain things potentially happening between now and the end of the window.

Doesn't that just support calling Lissah back even more?

His wages i bet is less then what Wards would be and he can cover CB aswell. Not to mention he probably is a better player then what Ward is now.

If we were going after a proper RB I would be more inclined to leave Lissah there but if the choice is between Joel Ward and Lissah I think its an easy decision.

Personally I'd leave Lissah where he is, getting first team football week in week out is important for him right now.

We've got 4 centre halves on the books with one (Casey) who can play at right back, we are led to believe. Also interesting to see Sam Parker making more match day squads under Matos.
