  • All this talk about who we should sign, until we sign a professional recruitment team to replace the present one I think it will be a case of rinse and repeat

    Junior Tchamadeu as a rb option maybe.

    Taylor richards from BHA on a free would be a great signing 
    He has joined QPR permanently.
    Forget that then….

    We need to unearth a Wright-Phillips to get us promoted. I’d say the chances are slim.

    That was a unique situation - Plymouth on the brink of admin I think, and BWP had just gone through a couple of injuries so there were concerns over his fitness too. Made him attainable for where we were at the time.
    He had also never scored goals before that.  Struggled at Man City (completely different club then) and hardly set the world on fire at Southampton.  I think they brought him with the money from Coca Cola because a fan won a competition.

    Be interesting to see if Holden goes back to his preferred 352 for the new season

    Football should be flexible when it comes to formations and always keep the opposition guessing.
    Play 3-5-2 or 4-3-3 or whatever works best  depending on availability of players. 
    I still think Leaburn and Kanu can work in a two as Daniel game progresses and he gets use to men football. You still wouldn't play the same formation every week. 
    Plus we need a new striker/forward who can play central or wide similar to Taylor and Grant who kept moving their markers about.

    JJ was the 3-5-2 man which was successful initially but other coaches could counter it after several games.
    100% you need to be adaptable but I think it's unrealistic to think we will have a squad big enough to easily switch between both. 
    If you have the right players you should be able to do it without any personal changes.

    Why the long wait for the released list? It's like a reluctant pimple

    He had been playing his football at PL and Championship level until that 2010-11 season, when we signed him in the Jan window.

    That half season in L1 with Plymouth he had 13 goals in 17 league games.

    So has Olamide Shodipo. Could maybe be worth a look. Had a good loan at Oxford in 20/21 but seems to have tailed off a bit since then with loans at Lincoln and the massives.

    I hope the May story has legs even if he has been linked to Wrexham. 

    Would be a bit of a coup even if the Ajose comparisons would be drawn.

    That May article sounds like 2+2=5
    Local lad, knows the keeper coach and was asked about it post match. Week later cobble a story together saying we’re interested.

    If we need to pay a fee for May then I can’t see it happening 🤣
