Speculationish Tyler Robert’s and Jack Marriott

[linkenholtroyal]

Speculation - ish. Someone I know who has had links to the club in the past has said to me we are looking at these 2. Not sure how true this is or whether it is firm interest.
Robert’s is a journeyman with a not so great record including over 20 appearances for Northampton last year for 1 goal. Birmingham are morethan happy for him to move on. Good pedigree just never shown any more than that.
Marriott is currently recovering from appendicitis, does have a good record in League 1 and could potentially be the player up front we all want and need. Wrexham are willing to sell with 1 year left on contract and could be let go for as little as 500k.

£500k is not little.

£500k would've been a good deal for Jack Marriot 5 years ago.

I actually have had a look round once he said it and to be honest there is not many out there that have scored 10+ consistently in league 1 or above that might be available. Most have moved up the leagues or are a lot older or will be out of our affordability. It would not surprise me if this doesn’t turn out to be true due to the options out there. Tyler Robert’s I am a bit meh on great potential but may never make it. No fee was mentioned by him but I guess it depends on the figure.

Yep there really ain’t loads of obvious options at a price we’re likely to pay

Hunt has to get the best out of what we’ve got. Tbh the likes of Marriott probably would make a great deal of difference to the side anyway

Reckon a few may come available towards the end of the window but unlikely to get anyone particularly good now

Rather have Margaret Roberts and the Marriott hotel range.

£500k you must be joking Marriot is
SH..!

Completely agree, it’s either take a punt on someone like Marriott who might come good again or explore the foreign markets now. I think we have missed the boat on anyone who would have slotted straight in and hit the ground running.

Always rated Marriott myself, think he’d do decently and is about as good as we could hope for given the current situation.

That's probably the age of the data used to train the club's new AI scouting model.
