Any truth in a rumour of a new forward from abroad,
I asked who and was only told a forward. So thought I'd ask here if any rumour rather than read though so much3 -

If we get Jephcott, that would be an unbelievable signing. I’ve got like another 3 pages to catch up on so if people have commented that I haven’t catched up on then apologise in advance… but seeing this put a massive smile on my face 😄😂RonnieMoore said:Plymouth have turned down an other from fellow league one side Charlton Athletic for young striker Luke Jephcott fee believed to be 600,000 .

Has your source got good links Orpington?

Surely it’s got nothing to do with the EU. As long as a player satisfies the UKs immigration requirements that’s it. We told the EU to do one, remember?orpingtonRED said:

So what was the ‘Clare to enjoy another new signing’ tweet all about then? It’s getting a bit late to announce another today isn’t it?0

Ha ha you brought a rumour to the table that hadn't previously been mentioned in this thread.

We need that playmaker now. Without that we’ll still struggle to score enough goals.3

Pretty sure it was "clare for another signing"? Yes please. Ok, here's Sean Clare. Not another one in addition.LargeAddick said:So what was the ‘Clare to enjoy another new signing’ tweet all about then? It’s getting a bit late to announce another today isn’t it?10 -

All this talk of Deji as our 4th centre back is making me feel sorry for Oshilaja. Imagine at one point being the second best Deji at a club, you wouldn’t expect it14

Last season we didn't score enough. And we had injury prone Centre halves.
Looking ahead to this season we have got rid of Shinnie, Aneke, Pratley. All wrong decisions. (Particularly Shinnie)
And we look at Ipswich who have brought in goalscorers aplenty. I can see Bonne and Piggot both getting 20+. And all the other signings have goals in them. I also don't see much coming from the guy from Preston. Definitely NOT an Aneke replacement.
I think Adkins is a good manager and I actually thought he did very well in the run in. But this season ahead with this current squad I see us sliding..we need 3 new forwards. Cover in all four back positions. And a playmaker in the centre of the park.
When TS said "we will p*** this division next season" (words to that effect) I couldn't stomach it..perhaps it's a Danish peccadillo to put a tonne of unnecessary pressure on your depleted squad but in England it is not even ironic. We will see come May 2022 but as the squad stands today ~ this club isn't going up.
Bonne and Piggott are!17 -
@valleyoftears Interested to know why you think it was the wrong decision to get rid of Pratley and Shinnie? Pratley will be 37 this year and has gone to play in League Two. I liked Shinnie but he'll be 33 this year and didn't play under Adkins, so don't see why he would stay. There was also a gaping hole in our midfield defensively when he did play. Remember these are not Adkins' players and he should get the opportunity to build his own team.
(Also, just want to add, not our decision to get rid of Aneke. He has gone to play in the Champ).
We know NA wants to play high pressing football with energetic midfielders and that's who he's signing. We also know we need to build a squad that has some value in it, and that means signing younger players who are improving, some of whom will hopefully do well and be worth a few quid. We're making the right moves IMO, but still have a bit more to do.19 -

And I bite….. pratley wrong decision? He is 85 years old and kept needlessly getting sent off and booked, we have replaced him with players over 10 years younger. It was time for him to move on.ValleyOfTears said:Last season we didn't score enough. And we had injury prone Centre halves.

Aneke turned down a contract to have a season in the championship.
shinnie, if he is that great, why has he ended up in dog shite Scottish league.
ipswich, mid table bottle jobs who have made a few good signings but they let a lot go. Their squad isn’t great, it will be interesting to see how they do once a few injuries, suspension and a bit of loss of form kick in2 -
Fancy a bet for the Upbeats? My tenner says Stockley outscores at least one of Bonne or Piggot.ValleyOfTears said:Last season we didn't score enough. And we had injury prone Centre halves.

Purely on a numbers/goals per game basis, Stockley stacks up fairly well as a comparison/replacement to Aneke. 8 goals in 22 games is somewhere around 15-16 in a full season.
We need more goals from elsewhere it's true but that was still true when we were relying on Chuks to solve all our problems.1 -
Goals from midfield is going to be key , I think DJ will chip in a solid amount but we definitely need more. Stockley over a full season I'd expect to get around Aneke numbers but I still think we need another option.2

Correct call. The list is no place for the faint of heart.Dazzler21 said:@orpingtonRED de-listed.6 -
Our wingers didn’t contribute much in terms of goals last season. 5 between them? The wide players should get a lot more this year1
-
We have a goalscoring machine in the academy currently. I’m not sure of his age but Daniel Kanu scored against Chatham in the friendly last night and looks a handful. He is the record goal scorer for Dartford district for the last 10 years.Number 2 on the list scored 28 goals but our boy Kanu notched a cool 67
annoyingly there were no team sheets or announcements so there were a few unfamiliar faces. Decent match though even if the floodlights were as powerful as a flatulent flea33 -
