I know Terry Taylor has become a bit of an inside joke "like a new signing" but I do feel he has a lot to offer, he is still young and if he can stay fit and get a run in the team I do think he could contribute a lot.
He showed flashes of quality last year, and definitely showed some for Burton as well. Time will tell, I really don't know why he didn't even make the bench last year after coming back, but we'll see.
Jones style is famously intense and demanding, doesn't really suit someone trying to ease back in slowly. Perhaps better to wait for a preseason and a "hard reset" rather than pushing to play fairly pointless games and risk relapse.
You could be right but I don’t quite feel it’s the same. Hughes still had a decent amount to offer as a player on top of the other stuff, can’t see it’s the same as Hylton. Nonetheless, doubt it will have a detrimental effect on our season so not a big deal.
I think some were saying the same about Andy Hughes, this time of the season tbf...
Possibly, can’t really remember. But Hughes came from the Championship, Hylton is probably a non-league player now. My only (minor) issue is I can’t imagine we’ll go with 6 strikers so if we say loaned Kanu out and had Hylton as 1 of the 5 then I’d be a bit concerned if we got a couple of injuries.
We currently have 3 fit strikers so Kanu going nowhere
I don’t know much about Bishop or Taylor for that matter but neither strikes me as attacking (perhaps I’m wrong). Add Doc, Coventry and Anderson into the holding midfielder category and it’s really only Berry who seems like the 10. The transfer business has been great so far but as well as an experienced no1 like Walton I think we need a back up CAM.
I don’t think we can complain at the business done so far the owners are certainly backing NJ. I don’t follow other clubs transfers really but surely only Birmingham can match what we are doing in terms of backing ? If we don’t have a decent season I’m not sure anyone can blame the ownership
One thing I’m sure of is I don’t think we will be soft this year ! I can’t see NJ putting up with less than 100% effort and commitment which I’m really looking forward to seeing

I think in his intro video, Doherty says something about being forward thinking and having goals and assists in his game?
Might be toooo much of a stretch but Vaclav Haldky has just left Ipswich as a free agent......... he couldn't agree new terms with IFTC...... and he's been linked with returning to the Scottish Prem...... Now he'd be a statement of intent........

Sounds like he has a good record with a couple of promotions under his belt with Ipswich, will he drop back to league one...not so sure, but interesting one to keep an eye on...👀

Yes, he might not want to drop down as far as L1 but I live in Suffolk and tonight the ITFC fans I know were all saying what a big shame it is he's not going to be with them any more He's 33 and a free agent so not completely out of the question we could come up with the right deal...... who knows..... maybe...... fingers crossed.......?

He's not turned down a contract at Ipswich to join us that's for sure.

I don’t think we can complain at the business done so far the owners are certainly backing NJ. I don’t follow other clubs transfers really but surely only Birmingham can match what we are doing in terms of backing ? If we don’t have a decent season I’m not sure anyone can blame the ownership
Rotherham have had a good window as well. A yo-yo side anyway but with Evans now in charge they'll be tough to beat, Clarke-Harris will score goals and i'd be amazed if they're not in the promotion mix.

Rotherham will be up there , no real wow signings but you just know Evans will have them hard to break down and well versed in the dark arts , if they can get JCH firing they'll be right in the promotion mix. They'll be far from pretty to watch but Evans sides have never played good football.

Like he did last season?
Yeah, he made Stevenage tough to beat and they finished comfortably in mid table after coming up from L2. He was nominated for manager of the year and only went back to Rotherham in April after they had already been relegated from the Championship.

I presumed he was talking about Clarke-Harris, who even then still got nine goals last term
One of the problems we have had with previous manager's is that when they arrived at the club they had to make do with a coaching staff that was in place. I think it's vital that a manager has people around him that he knows and can trust. NJ seems to be bringing in the players and coaches of his own choice. This can only be a positive imo.

Would have been our second highest scorer.
Most of those came from subs appearances. He hardly played as they’d already had his replacement in before he decided to run his contract down.

Do believe Nathan Jones would give his right arm to appear in Play Off Final as would the owners.
