Shrek Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Need to get another centre half in and they seem confident they will. Right back is still the number one gap we have. We can't rely on Sutton / Sheron / Shelton as 1st choice. Add one each of the above at a quality better than we have now and we won't NEED anything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leutwiler won't play for us again, Hudson looks like next seasons No 2 so if Ripley came in then Norman would have to make way, it's not going to happen but it's what I'd like to see and as much as I think Norman is more than adequate for this level Ripley would be a definite upgrade.

I think we need about 3 more really, 4 if we’re showing Yarney the door. Not entirely confident at the moment. 'showing Yarney the door'?

Not entirely confident at the moment. “Near future” being next week if you’re going off Suzanne Geldard’s tweet, which is mid June. So that’d be 8 signed since the end of the season I think including the youths. Not bad with still a couple of weeks to go before pre season starts.

Lags Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Get those through the door we need to and hopefully more incoming. Yarney would be a decent signing but let's be brutally honest 4 seasons back he would be considered bang average. Whilst in NL let's have him only if he's desperate to play here.

Only 2 signings of any discernible value within that 8 figure you’ve mentioned, it has to be said. The only reason I’m expressing concern is because we’ve been led to believe that we had the majority, if not ALL of our business lined up ready to go since the latter stages of last season. I’ve not seen much to suggest that so far. Unfortunately, the National League is a total bastard of a division and we need more quality if we want to stage an assault on the play offs, never mind the title.

You're slipping back into "black dog" syndrome pretty quickly. If we sign Ward from Gateshead I think a right back and a centre half is all we need, perhaps two if Yarney doesn't agree terms. I'd be more concerned with getting without three or four than incomings at present. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanMarshall's Mullet Posted June 12, 2023 Author Share Posted June 12, 2023 (edited) Unsubstantiated rumour on Twitter linking us with right back Josh Emmanuel after his release from Grimsby Town at end of June.

He’ll probably be out of our range but what a signing he’d be. I’ve heard the Cropper one mentioned elsewhere so probably more gettable.

Boyyou Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) Not sure about the long throw. Thought they used Jesse Debrah for that. Still, a good prospect and I would be perfectly pleased IF signing rumours are true. Being greedy, wouldn't say no to him and Debrah!!
