    We were linked with another one of their players (Scowen) a few weeks ago - think he's out of contract this summer as well, but Burnley have been looking at him as well apparently.

    Don't know a great deal about Watkins to be honest, he came on as a sub down here and made the winning goal

    Yeah but we don't want to be jamming players into the team for the sake of it.

    Barnsley impressed me at home with there pace and desire

    Let's hope it's true and we're not left waiting in vain.

    Looks like the majority of goals and assists he's got this year have been when he's been playing up front rather than on the wing

    Re: City favourites to sign Marley Watkins from Barnsley.

    I hadn't heard of him before this season but based on what I have seen I would be happy to see him sign for us

    Don't know much about Watkins but that Scowen ripped the hell out of us down here - he went to ground a bit easy and moaned a lot but looked hell of a player

    Would he come to Wale(r)s though?

    Three little birds have told me this is happening.

    The Winter window of this current season would be the start, if not before then.

    Marley Watkins is a winger come striker/striker come winger who is probably their most important player left at the club. He must be close to Wales selection and would be, on paper at least, a fantastic signing.

    What are the chances he'll go west if they get relegated?

  21. #21

    Re: City favourites to sign Marley Watkins from Barnsley.

    Seems a bit odd that at the age of 26 he doesn't appear to have ever been involved in any of the Wales age groups.

    Re: City favourites to sign Marley Watkins from Barnsley.

    Amazing how he hasn't featured for Wales this campaign when Cotterill has been called up 4 out of 5 times.

    His career path probably offers a clue why he hasn't featured for Wales youth teams

    He was released by Swansea, went to Cheltenham then dropped into non-league with Bath and Hereford before joining Inverness and then Barnsley

    Sounds like a late bloomer, a Welsh Jamie Vardy?

    He was on the standby list for the Ireland game, ahead of Cotterill apparently. Cotterill is apparently retiring from International Football anyway

    Strong, I'd suggest. He's a Jack too, I'd love him down here but if they came calling I think he'd find it hard to say no.
