Ethan Walker out, Gwion Edwards in. Both wingers, possibly like for like but G.E has more experience.
Welcome Gwion.

Welcome to Gwion.
Is he a left winger ? Maybe cover for Mayor if he moves

Keep him injury free and this is an excellent signing for us. Vastly experienced, had some big transfer fees paid for his services over the last 5 years, been a success everywhere he has been, league 1 winner with Wigan, was impressive at Ipswich and Peterborough but loaned out from Wigan to Ross county middle of last season where he was another success but sadly just before the season ended he pulled his hamstring ending his loan and unlucky for him his contract was up also. Now, as with so many we get the chance to put him back in the window so we benefit until the end of the season at least

Has the experience to play a vital role up front for our lads.
If this is the calibre of player that GED can bring on board....all well and good.
Looking forward to see how he fits into the match day starting 11.
Could be included in the squad for Saturday's FA Cup game assuming that he gets the all clear from the Welsh FA.

Right behind Ged but I think Greg Strong is behind most if not all of Januarys signings. Ged has enough on his plate doing the job of 3

Good experienced midfield player is he a right or left winger? That will maybe point to that we are going to lose someone! A Loan player back to his club or cashing in on someone?

Connelly gone back to Bristol Rovers, we need to bring in cover or give Chris Stokes a chance?

apparently the Dude is right footed and can play on both wings, sounds good.

It was a loan deal, it happens, get a grip, it’s only the 3rd January. If a loanee plays well he will get recalled or we are lucky (but we never are), if he doesn’t we get stuck with a useless player. I know which I would rather have.

Some pedigree. I worry he's come in though to replace someone else quality going out.

nobbyshimp, we have a small squad and I was posing the question, do we bring in someone else or give Stokes a chance? I need to get a grip, really!! I was hoping for some good debate rather than a glib reply.
