Confimred - Conor Masterson

CM would be fine as a signing. Experienced back up. Allow Duah and Beacroft to go out on loan. No problem with it on paper

My thoughts as well, I'd be concerned if he was blocking 1st team opportunities for our youngsters but I'm not convinced any of them are ready so if it allows them to go out on loan, that's probably the ideal scenario.

Confimred. Short term contract till Jan.

Kanu too. It would be good if we could get him on loan to League Two until January and reassess how close he is to the first team based on that.

I actually don't hate the Masterson signing. Low risk, and inexpensive. Ainsworth had a mass clear out at the Gills, and he was probably a bit unlucky, and also probably towards the top end of their wage bill. He was good against Charlton, and must have done enough in training to look more instantly 'playable' than the youngsters next inline. Could actually be a shrewd bit of business, with genuine competition available, I think POCs place as a guaranteed starter might not be as certain as it was thought to be.

This 100%, he was well liked by the Gillingham fans and i believe their player of the season before he got injured. Sometimes you need to take a gamble and this guy could be a diamond in the rough and work out well.
He must have something about him for them to keep him on until January.

How has he done tonight?

Did alright in the first half from what I saw. Didn’t get to see whole match.
