    Surprised he's moved to Burton of all teams, one of the favourites for relegation next season. Personally had him a bit higher up than that.

    I think what alot of people dont understand is that at this level very few players will have a main motivation of achieving something, their main motivation will be money and what best secures their families future. None of this is to say they dont care about if they win or lose but more that it will be secondary to the money, if a player has a choice of going to team A who is tipped for promotion or team B who are paying £500 more a week it will more than likely be team B because thats an extra £26000 over a year or £52000 over two years.

    The idea of achieving greater things is a privilege to the very young (in football) or higher level players.

    Cambridge have made their first signing, Defender Kelland Watts on a free from Newcastle.

    They are the 12th team to sign a player, so half the league now has at least 1 new signing.
    Ex Newcastle left footed defender.

    I thought he was effective for Peterborough when they played at the Valley a couple of years ago.

    Seems to be quite injury prone.

    That also shows Salford's place in the football pecking order...

    I completely get that it’s a short career and for the majority it’s about the money now. I just thought he would go to a better club than Burton Albion in this league, and it’s not like they’re going to be paying him loads for a League One club.

    Wigan have signed Winger Dion Rankine on a free from Chelsea.

    Rumours that former Charlton player Deji Oshilaja is about to join Mansfield. He's a free agent after being released by Burton.

    And speaking of Burton. They have signed their second player in 2 days. Defender Geraldo Bajrami has joined on a free from Notts County.

    But someone (mention no names) keeps telling us that the window does not open until tomorrow, so no one can be signed until then 🤔

    Burton could be an interesting one to watch , new manager in Mark Robinson (ex AFC Wimbledon and Chelsea Academy) and ambitious new Scandinavian owners with sports backgrounds.

    I remember many saying similar last year when they purchased Cole Stockton and Rakeem Harper.

    But they ended up being worse than us!

    I would hope this year we are competing at the other end of the table to them.

    Yeah I don't expect them to suddenly be competing for playoffs out of nowhere just because they've got a bit more financial muscle than they did in the past and takeovers are never a guarantee that they'll work out for the better after having the same owner for 20 odd years. 

    Definitely want to be at the other end of the table , as congested as I expect that to be!

    They’ll need to fix their pitch though as imagine he’ll want to play more of a passing game

    Oh absolutely, that pitch would be the first thing I'd get fixed as the owners because he'll definitely want to get the ball down and play.

    Their fans were minding their own business, and Den Bosch... three signings out of no where
    Very good FA  :D

    that one change might just have made the difference in reaching a playoff place last season if it meant we stopped some of those goals that needlessly cost us points.

    We shut the window as it's quite chilly at the moment. Berry and Edwards are stuck outside.

    A different goalkeeper wouldn't have got us an extra 24 points.

    24 points is (i m o) an exaggeration, however poor keepers cost points and make any defence uneasy .. I say AGAIN, the keeper is the most important player in the team, even more so than a great goal scorer

    Not League One, but Ben Hamer has just signed for Sheffield Wednesday on a free transfer

    Wonder who could have recommended that one
