He has been made available for transfer/loan by Gateshead along with Dan Smith, Adam Boyes and Luke O'Brien.

Unless Gateshead are willing to pay the wages I can't see it happening!

Would have him back like a shot though!

Who would you drop to accommodate him though?

I would not drop anybody at the moment but, as soon as White gets booked again he will be missing for 2 games, so he slots in there, he can play midfield, although imo he is a better CB. With the size and make up of our squad he would be my first choice as an addition to it, because defensively we are at the bare bones. When we lose White for his 2 game suspension we will be in trouble no question.

So actually you wouldn't drop anybody. You would play him if White gets suspended? When did Tait play in midfield?

Just because you sign a good player does not meen you drop somebody to accomodate him, look at the Fisher or Dowson scenario, Tait would be good enough to play in midfield if needed. Are you saying if he was available you would not have him back?

Can we afford to bring him in? Surely we would have to offload someone first, the squad is quite threadbare so we'd have to be careful when letting someone go.

The Weldon injury may dictate things, is he on contract?

If we could get Tait for nothing then well we have nothing to lose. He is on FT terms with Gateshead now though so unless they are prepared to pay him to play for us I just can't see it happening.

That said how long was the contract they gave him, if he has to return to PT then we will hopefully be near the front of the queue.

Who is out of contract for us this season does anyone know?

If Wheldon is out, wouldn't O'Brien or Smith make more sense?

We will be playing at the arena again next season - fact.

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

Possibly, was more meaning one less player rather than position, of course Scott could fill in but rather he didn't if Galbraith was injured.
