BREAKING NEWS: Tudur-Jones signs on
1:54pm Monday 9th March 2009
TOWN have confirmed the signing of midfielder Owain Tudur-Jones on an initial month-long loan.
As revealed exclusively by the Advertiser this morning, the 24-year-old Swansea man has signed on at the County Ground and should make his debut tomorrow at Colchester.
Swindon boss Danny Wilson admitted he was delighted to get his man, and said: "Owain has got good experience for a young boy and played plenty of games for Swansea as they won promotion from this league last season.
"He's been a bit frustrated over there so we've given him the opportunity to play some games."
- See tomorrow's Swindon Advertiser for interviews with Danny Wilson and Owain Tudur-Jones.

Fair play to Wilson, asuming that Tudor Jones plays to his potential thats 3 quailty loan signings.
And thats what its about - Quality not quanity or speed. Anyone could have gone out and signed us some loan players, but they need to be significantly better than what we have ton make it worthwhile.

e,Leyton Orient,if we are to have any hope at all of staying up we have to win them all.I doubt that on his own Tudor-Jones can improve our terrible record against lower end of table rivals.He is a quality player though so hopefully he can make some difference.

Totally agree Tite_Fitt one more striker and we have the makings of a good side.
The next key DW is to persuade AF to turn the temporery signings into permanent ones once we've stayed up.
I really believe the changes DW has made are crucial. I think we;ve sorted out the back four, clean sheets to come, which will keep us up.
As I siad yesterday, Cox is still a class player and the ball will go in!
Keep the faith.

Welcome Owain. Straight in at Colchester is the plan so who would like to guess at the other ten to start with him ? I`ll guess at Smithy, Ifil and Marshall/Razak being on the bench for a start.
RB Jack Smith (if not fit Amankwaah)
CB Morrison
CB Greer (c)
LB Vincent
RM Amankwaah (McNammee if Smith is not fit)
CM Timlin
CM Tuder Jones
LM Kanu

CF Paynter
Hopefully only OTJ has to come in but i think that Macca will be dropped if Smith is fit, particularly i a crucial away game.

TENHAM? NO. one good game out off 4 or 5 does not make him a good player..BPis a div2 player at best.
