Maybe Fenwick was brought in on a months contract to cover for Beck.

Beck is now fit and Fewster maybe to be brought in at the end of Fenwicks contract?

I wouldn't be against Saunders going out on loan to gain some regular football at a decent level

Caton has hit the ground running by all accounts. Beck is a class act. Saunders looks good and in my opinion not giving him a good shot at the team this season sends out totally the wrong message. Gillies, Thompson and Ferguson are all quality.

We can only really justify those six in the match day squad unless Ferguson drops back to left back, which I can't see happening while he's making such an impact on the wing.

Fenwick, and to be honest, i'd be happy to let Caton go in favour of Fewster as well. It's not to say I don't rate either of them, I just happen to think Fewster is an upgrade, and perhaps most importantly, could potentially have great resale value.

Do you know Fewster is an upgrade? Or are we going on the word of others?

Agree on resale value, but Caton sounds like he's an upgrade on what we had before so is it a bit of an unnecessary risk to swap him out for someone who may or may not be an improvement?

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

It's hard to say, but he's shown glimpses he's good enough in the Football League, and it was a surprise to most he has dropped this far down. That suggests to me he could be a level above guys like Fenwick, who I have nothing against, but he hardly shone for York in the National.

Still bizarre this is dragging on. Has no one asked MG in an interview what is going on?

Anyone know what's going on with this guy? Few rumours going round that he's currently injured and can't yet pass a medical.

Currently injured no club as yet but Bristol rovers sniffing around, wants to stay in the north east so don't rule out pools or going back to york.

Think it might be premature calling Caton an upgrade. Don't see him scoring as many as Cartman, which i'm assuming was the point.

And Cartman was hardly prolific last season was he. Great work rate but his confidence in front of goal had gone in my opinion.

I think bringing back Cartman would be a backward step.

Didn't say he was, i said I don't see Caton being any more prolific when apparently he's an upgrade. There is a reason non of his previous clubs have played him as a central striker. Am fine with him as a player, i just don't see 15 goals in him.

Isn't he a winger?

Don't think york need a striker and seems like Pools are getting Ryan Bowman. What's all the talk about it having to be done by Thursday? Thought free transfers could be made until March?

There are no restrictions on transfers, this will be to register in time for squad contention on Saturday.

Here's hoping we get him in, i have serious doubts about Fenwick, and Caton needs too many chances (if Saturday is anything to go by). We would've been much better off with Saunders yesterday, they looked vulnerable to pace.
