Couple of players that are solid League 1 signings - RB - Barry Fuller ex Gills would do a good job Mid - George Thorne - just released from Oxford ex Derby STR - Clarke - Harris from Bristol Rovers STR - Will Grigg from Sunderland
Barry fuller is an ackworth type suggestion. In the last two years he has been released by Wimbledon and Gillingham. Maybe we should try and get Lloyd Sam back?
clarke Harris and grigg would cost around £2m each. Soft embargo money won’t go that far.
we will have 5 loans again this season.
Fuller is ex-CAFC
15 years ago. That’s my point, if we are after players like fuller, we are in trouble
For a couple of decent L1 signings I would love the following. All good, young and british
Jack Tucker from Gillingham. Young, (21), big and strong. Decent centre back Tyler Walker (23) from Notts Forest. He doesn't get a sniff at Forest but scored regularly at Lincoln in this division. Very good player. Kwame Poku (19) at Colchester. Young livewire with an eye for goal. Very exciting talent
They would be some big old signals of intent and are all experienced at this level

Sadley Gills want over a million for Tucker, Walker would be at least a couple of million.
Not heard of Poku but he sounds promising, likely to be a fair wack too though.
Absolutely nothing behind it but I'd like to see us try and get Oliver Skipp on loan from Spurs. They've said he's free to go on loan but not sure he'd drop down to L1...
Made a few Premier league appearances, is an England u21 international, Southampton and Fulham are allegedly interested in signing him on loan. Absolutely zero chance he'll be dropping to league one.
Any academy players we think can make the step up? Wassim Aouachria is the next breakthrough talent in my eyes, if he didn’t get an ACL injury he would have already made his league debut.

was he the youngster who scored in a few pre seasons last year?
do we still have Brendan Sarpong-Wiredu? Not sure if he is a right back or a midfielder but I seem to recall him playing right back in a friendly last year and scoring a couple of goals

Yes he’s still on the books. He was on loan at Colchester last season. For me he’s our starting RB all season

No that’s Sarpong-Wiredu. Wassim Aouachria is a tall, strong and technically gifted attacking midfielder, we pouched him from Marseille.

He won't be. As we are allowed to sign players, we'll bring in at least 1 RB

the OS have just tweeted about a Gilbey recap so seems like they're about to get active again themselves
Imagine we'll be back at the same time seeing our season ended together
