toontownman Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 (edited) https://canpl.ca/article/wanderers-sign-english-midfielder-callum-watson Once bitten twice shy but I'm cautiously optimistic with Halifax. Need some exciting wide players. Upfront, central midfield and defence looks largely solid and promising. Absolutely.. BUZZING.

Got owned by tabla Thought CJ smith is going to be re-upped by Halifax. Was an stud last 10 games or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Another good one. Who is playing on the wings though? Feel like they need to least one more addition there. Lurker and aredding77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copes Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I like this Giraldo signing. Could have a huge upside given how people felt about his potential a couple of years ago. He is coming back from injury and will hopefully have something to prove. And still young. I hope it works out! toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie_the_parrot Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Strange one that Halifax didn't want to host this given they would likely draw 6000+? Guess they might be restricted by their rental deal with the City of Halifax that had some terms that were quite restrictive to keep NIMBY types happy.

toontownman Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 One of these new guys can play on the wing right? Right?? (or left) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 We've got one heck of a competition shaping up for starting forwards right now. Not a bad thing! toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(or left) I'm convinced that they are going to play high-wingbacks. Based on what we are acquiring it seems like we will see something like a 3-4-3 with our wingbacks pushed up to be the wide aspect of our midfield 4. EDIT: No idea who is going to be favored by Patrice, but something like this? Note I'm assuming Morelli still isn't ready in this one.

I also got an illogical spidey sense it would be HFX as a landing spot for Maël Henry. That said I had a spidey sense there would be positive news about Saskatoon in the CPL this week, so expect him to sign with Valour or VFC lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 What. It's 9.42pm in Halifax and no love in this thread from this mornings announcement on Ryan James? Another really smart signing. Solid, experienced player that can cover several positions if needed. I'm a broken record at this stage but I'm loving how HFX is shaping up.

Roster quickly filling up, need a keeper and a U21 player, I guess signing Rushenas, drafted from Dalhousie, would fill both requirements Depending on Sow's status, there is only one or two roster spots available. HFX's rebuild sure looks better than Valour's. K Edgar and Lurker 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrice is off to a good start in my books. I'm so eager to see thus squad on the field. TFC is going to have to hold me over but its going to be tough to wait. As to the other comment, yes, we are pretty close to full. Second GK is an obvious pickup, and then there isn't much room left. The severe lack of midfield only solidifies my assumption about how we're going to be lining up. Pottsy3 and toontownman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Gutted about Salter leaving but think it was always on the cards after the past two years form and HFX stocking up on forwards. Still sad. Hope that gives HFX room for one more standout signing. Lurker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally sad to see him go but he wasn’t lethal in open play and didn’t offer much in the air. Wish him all the best, hope he does great in Ottawa. Looking forward to this drastically different season for the Wanderers! toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
