Nuttall has signed for Northampton on loan for the season

very good move for both parties...hope he smashes it...a bit worrying though two strikers playing for teams in the same division as us...personally I think he will struggle at this level
 
Wow, didn’t see that happening at all. Think this ones in everyone’s interest. Good luck to him.

I’m not being sarcastic there I just didn’t see anyone coming in with his wages and track record, think we must be paying a decent chuck of his wages still. At least it frees some funds up. The people at the top are working wonders for me.
 
Sounds like Keith Curle is a long time fan, and he reckons he can get the best out of him. Let's hope he does.
 
Must admit I’m surprised at this but good luck to the lad. He should get more opportunities there and hopefully come back a better player. I’ll resist the temptation to use the word ‘cobblers’.

He came highly rated, so Curle may well have seen what others did and what we thought we were getting.
Unfortunately he was thrown in to a situation where no one seemed to have any direction and no one involved came out of it with any credit.
Football fans being the fickle bunch they are took it out on a 23 year old still trying to find his feet in first team football.
The change could do him the world of good.
 
I'll preface this with the comment that I find fans who abuse their own players at football games a bit bizarre, I remember some getting particularly nasty at Accrington away, it doesn't benefit anyone really does it? Personally I was never Nuttall's biggest fan, but I did feel the animosity towards him at games was unnecessary

I was always hoping he would "come good" (the famous saying surrounding him). But it did get to a point where in my mind I just accepted he probably wasn't good enough. I remember a lacklustre performance against a bottom half League Two side in one of the cups really started my worries. With the reviews we received, you'd have thought there would have been a glimmer of class against a squad so below his apparent level (I remember Kaikai certainly showed his); but for me there wasn't, and there wasn't much after that, which impressed either. The stats don't lie, 8 goals in 70 senior apps, 2 in 27 for the Pool.

It might be true that he just didn't flourish under Grayson-ball (not many did). I was interested to see if Critchley could reveal the player we were promised, I am always ever hopeful that Blackpool players I don't rate will prove me wrong (you'd be stupid not to); but for me this is the best course of action with Nuttall. A loan spell could do him wonders, I hope it does and I hope he comes back a goal scoring machine! But the pessimist in me doubts it

Good post. 👍

Lets face it some players work out for some clubs and there are those that don't.
It happens but equally worse is those who abuse than those who defend players at all costs you have to look at the Hardie posts he was crap for us and done better elsewhere.
Good for him it happens and he might come good for us but that's just hopefull thinking.
 
Good luck Joe, I hope you smash in 20+ goals and come back and be a real star for us.

It is interesting that NC has practically cleared out all of larry's signings, I'm not sure Husband & Turton are anywhere near first choice either and Feeney will be off as will Devitt.

Wouldn't be surprised if we paid for his taxi fare, hotel and the cost of a cameraman for the photo shoot!
