8 league goals last season. You'd find that hard to find in any other player we could sign in that position.

As for 3-4 decent signings, that ain't happening. We don't have enough resources to fund that - not unless we ship a couple of decent ones out.
It has to happen if we're really serious about promotion .I'd rather bring them in now than make panic signings again in January . We must learn from our mistakes or we're wasting our time.

This video looks authentic to me. I agree with those who say it was accidentally released too early

I believe this premature release was a teaser for our new club partner Viagara. Hope it means we're staying up.

while he played @ left back remember Ron while our real left back was forced to not play .
Agree tuffers , but I also remember some games when he played on the wing and couldn't cross a ball to save his life πŸ˜‚
ive had days i P155ed on the floor & the toilets been a lot closer to me than the wing & the penalty spot . Off days everyone has em .

It would be a shame about Otis . He's proved himself to be a decent player . I'd be sorry to see him go .
He was ok, ish. You can see exactly why he's had so many clubs and never quite done it anywhere - there's some ability in there, for sure, but no one has been able to work him out. I still couldn't tell you where we should be playing him. And I'm not sure he's a Wellens type player.

I'd happily keep him as a squad player, however, if he's not too expensive.

With 6 Senior c/midfield on the books someone has to go in that department, with the obvious need for something different I would have thought at least 2 will depart

Most of them aren't senior players, that's our problem.

At least 3 of them aren't even players.

Of the ones to get rid he'd be last on my list, the 4 youth CMs needed loaning out first as none are worthy of a spot in a top 3 chasing side

Delighted to have Theo here on a permanent basis. Great player at our level. not sure what his best position is, and i dont think RW knows either

To have Theo & Paul Smyth here at the same time, is fantastic .

A little bit over the top all this excitement over the Theo signing. I mean it's not as if he's a Cliff Jones. Don't get me wrong, I'm more than pleased he's come on board. Good player at our level. I just think we're getting a tad carried away.
