If I start my own thread (on the correct board, of course), can I make my "off topic BS" remarks again?

Matt.

I should probably admit here that I jumped the gun initially.

I can't be arsed to explain, but our hold over him may not be quite as formal as I initially suggested. No reason to change our thinking about him, but I figured honesty would probably set me free come Judgment Day.

Matt.

So basically, we're still getting him, you just got it wrong on the signed contract?

do we think he will become a torquay united player or not?

Pretty much Camb, yeah.

Chunk, yeah, no real reason he wouldn't come here, but then, stranger things have happened.

Matt.

do we have any news of where he is in terms of rehab, training, fitness and when he can start playing?

Give it a fortnight.

Matt.

Announced short-term deal with Gulls on OS and possibly on bench tomorrow night at Burton.

DAMIEN DEAL

AFTER seemingly endless weeks of training and quietly restoring his fitness, French midfielder Damien Mozika has agreed a short-term deal with the Gulls.

Mozika is well known to manager Alan Knill from their time together at Bury and Scunthorpe, and it is now a case of seeing how he performs in the Yellow shirt of United.

As a club, we will obviously monitor Damien’s form and fitness before any decision is made on a longer-term contract.

‘’Damien has been here for almost two months of training and rehabilitation,’’ said Alan. ‘’He had a hamstring injury and wasn’t fit when he came here.

‘’We’ve had to monitor him and we’ve done quite a bit of stuff, so he now looks in decent shape but, as with everything, we don’t know until he actually plays.

‘’It is a short-term deal and we want to get him on the pitch, so we can see how he reacts. If that works, we’ll look to negotiate a longer deal.

‘’He hasn’t played a game as yet but he’s looking stronger every day in training. Our concern was that he won’t be math-fit but our physio has said he’s done everything right, and just needs some game-time.

‘’He now has a chance to possibly be on the bench tomorrow night at Burton and we’re all hopeful that he does well for us. When he’s fit, there is no doubt he’s a top player.’’

Merged.

Very positive news, IMHO.

Looks set to be on the bench tonight, hopefully we'll get a look at him for the last 10 minutes when we're 3-0 up!

How short is his short term deal! Will people who know more be able to enlighten me

Isn't the minimum a 1 month contract?
