Permanent signing, once his loan period has expired.

Happy days.

Where did you here that? Great stuff if its true

[Boo]

DG confirmed it on that dire radio station.

[beefpilgrim]

Excellent news...... and what a signing!

[Shauneyg]

Hearing that Ryan semple is one of the 3 new signings due next week.  Would be good signing if true.

[Carl Newell]

Semple was at todays game but said that he wasn't signing although that could count for nothing. Greene said on the radio that we will have 2 in by Friday and another by Sunday week so I am guessing that one may be Semple, a CM in the Hall mould and a target man. Greene also said that none of the signings will be a defender despite a suspension coming up for Rene and Garner.

[Shauneyg]

I heard that semple was one. I think we defo need a box to box midfielder and maybe a target man aswell

[noughtyforties]

Ryan Semple?

Back to the bad old days of bring players back who really weren't all that good in the 1st place then.

I'd hoped we'd moved on from that merry go round.

If he comes back as good as Ricky Miller that won't be a problem for me

It will be a problem if he only comes back as good as Ryan Semple.

I doubt it Pat.......and if I remember not too many people wanted to see the back of Miller in the 1st place........can't say the same for Semple.

I don't think there's another club that takes its rejects and cast offs back like we do.

There are literally hundreds of players out there looking for clubs and who would bring plenty to our team, yet we always seem to be linked with players deemed surplus to requirements a year or two previous.

I noted with great interest Danny Higginbotham has just joined Alty.........why doesn't our manager go looking for experienced ex pro's, not non league journeymen? Our turnover of playing staff is extraordinary and its a big reason why we're probably going to fall a bit short (although its a massive improvement on the last 2 years)........

Come on Dennis, we deserve better than Ryan Semple, get out there and bring in another Marrs or Steer, they are out there.

DG recruitment has on the whole been very good apart from mills and Timms so we must trust his judgement totally but I can see your point n40s

Quite agree Andy.
Ryan Semple was very quick and very skillfull but rarely at the same time.
At the moment we have a very young team, think SWD at 28 is the old man

Semple in a nutshell, well done.

A bit of experience wouldn't go a miss, especially in the centre of the park......SWD at 28 being the most experienced bears out my point, its not a crime to have a 30 something in there to hold it together for the younger lads. I'm not advocating a veterans XI, just the odd one or two experienced heads.

Higginbotham has joined Alty as he is a local lad. If we started to sign ageing pros on the way down, that'd be something else to moan about.

I don't care how old the signings are, as long as they fit in within the squad and do a job, that's good enough for me.
