I don't get to see many matches live, but I've taken in Doncaster and Barrow in recent days.
Can somebody explain what Scott Quigley offers our team and quite how he's managed 180+ minutes in these fixtures?
For me, his workrate is appalling, he fails to hold the ball up and offer any of the attributes of the proverbial target man. He gives the ball away continously and is forever arguing with the referee and throwing his arms out. Perhaps if he wasn't so inept, he'd challenge for headers infront of his marker and stop fouling him.
Calvin hasn't played for us for a few years, but I'd rather have him upfront now than Quigley.

Very much agree. There must be 2 Scott Quigley's. The one who arrived and worked hard; looking a real threat, and the popst injury one, who looks like he doesn't care.
He can go back for me . Trouble is we ave nobody else at all.
it's like our keeper. Started well, but has gone to pot the last month or two. Nearly cost us again today when he rabbit punched a crodss that a kid would have caught near the end. Luckily it didn't drop to them.

The criticism of the likes of Calvin and more recently Matty Done got may have been partly justified for the lack of end product, but their work effort and experience would be most welcome in this squad.
Quigley has been awful since returning to the side. As bad as we’ve seen from strikers at Dale.
Another player who was bigged up as a world beater after his debut game. Done next to nothing since and looks like he really doesn’t want to be here. Potentially a good player but makes about as much effort as Ball and that’s bloody hard to do.

Don’t think he’s been quite the same since the penalty miss, the injury and then the break we had. But do think he’ll come good. I thought the line up was good today - with Toums and Odoh rested. Surprised that Nelson didn’t start, and I’m not sure what Sinclair has done to never get a start. For me we have to find a way of playing someone alongside Quiggs - and someone that’s not Hendo from the start Maybe Campbell when he’s back - or Sinclair perhaps. Even when he does win it - we’re miles away from him

Nelson has been poor since being given a chance. Without doubt he’ll be a good player, he’s a modern day defender, but we need defenders who defend with nothing else being thought about at the moment and he didn’t do that well enough.
Henderson was much, much better as the lone striker than Quigley has been since he’s returned. That alone says how far the latter’s star has fallen. At least with Henderson we see a player who constantly looks to cause problems for the opposition with his movement and experience.
Hopefully Bentley can impress upon Quigley he’s playing for his future as a league player. Recapture some of the form we saw in his first month or so and he could win a longer deal.
I think he did the right thing today in dropping John and nelson, i would play Sinclair due to his pace, he as some ability as well. We lacked creativity today in midfield, but starting with Keohane was the right decision.
Now it is a matter of seeing if he can offload players and get his own players in, starting this week

Quigley spends far too much time moaning and giving away daft fouls...
Miles off the pace..like so many of the team ..not good enough at this level.
Campbell coming back.?....don’t hold your breath
At least we got a point today but it was dire.
Hoof football on display..

Tbf he was awful when I saw him away at Northampton- as was everyone.
The most frustrating thing about Quigley is when on form he’s our most important player. Quigley playing well means we can skip out the midfield as much as possible and the defence can concentrate on defending and hoofing it up for respite.

With Stockport signing a striker this week he isn't going to play for them again. You'd think he'd be pulling up trees to get a deal with us. But his stupid foul on their midfielder when we were on a rare attack today was criminal.
I was thinking about the players like Done, Joey T and Calvin who got stick from time to time - but they always put a shift in. How i'd love to see somebody like that in the squad now

If we can as part of the deal I'd send him back to Stockport asap. I'd imagine that he'll be on a decent wedge here so it would free up a good wage and going off his recent performances he obviously won't want to be playing for us on a permanent basis next season regardless of what division we are playing in.

Quigley has not been the same player since his injury.
He made a comment in an interview that he didn't expect to be in a relegation battle, had offers from clubs higher up the league, & wouldn't be here if he thought we would be in a bottom 2 battle all season.
Based on his berating of others today, weird celebration at Donny, seeming lack of effort etc, has he decided he wants to leave? Today he seemed to be more intent on fouling and kicking off than he was attacking and pushing us forwards.

If I was EBJ talking to Stockport this week I’d be asking about the availability of Callum Camps, not Scott Quigley.
I don’t think we’re in any position to take on a good percentage of his wages. Also think he may be injured again as not in the squad for the last couple of games.
If he did become available, expect Bristol Rovers to renew their interest too.

"wouldn't be here if he thought we would be in a bottom 2 battle all season."
Does that mean he doesn't fancy it? Too good for it?
Has this board been overloaded with comments saying if only the other Dale players put in a shift as good as Scott Quigley?
Also, we weren't bottom two when he joined, so what has happened since? Ah - it must be all the others.

Around 3:15 onwards - I just watched it again to make sure I wasn't misremembering it.
To be fair to Quigley the fans at his previous clubs love him. I work with a few Stockport fans who were fuming we signed him as they felt he could do a job for them.
I’m going to give him the benefit of the doubt and say that injury is possibly still troubling him.

Quigley has been a good non league/League Two striker all his career. He is going to have good and bad games, I think he showed that in the short time he was with us pre-injury, But he at least gave defenders something to think about, even when it wasn’t really running for him.
He’s been terrible since returning from injury. There’s no getting away from that. Is it still bothering him? Has he lost the appetite to chase defenders down? Has he decided the relegation fight isn’t for him? Is he already fixed up for next season so he’s not risking injury? Who knows, but he’s no use to us at all in his post injury form.

The above pointed out that most of his goals at Barrow came after Christmas so lets hope he's a second half of the season player.
Despite taking until November last to score his first goal back in the EFL, the Shrewsbury born forward soon found his form again, finishing the season with 15 goals in League Two to help ensure Barrow’s survival. He was soon voted as the Club’s Supporters’ Player of the Year for 2020/21.

15 is excessive, I’ll settle for 10.

I don’t see anything wrong in what he says, he had other offers and did not expect us to be where we are, which is fair enough.
He might still be injured, might not appreciate the levels of commitment of others, might think he was misled when he signed, who knows. He is still better than anything we have so hopefully with a few additions things will pick up. A couple of the right signing will make a huge difference if they are the right one, particularly a decent midfielder.

Funnily enough if he was playing well and scoring we wouldn't be where we are.
