    I might have to add him to my list of previous lost causes which included Jordi Hiwula and Adam Chicksen, who incidentally went on to glittering careers with Coventry and Bolton respectively :grinning:

    One of the national league players we have shown a interest in (again) is callum (cal) roberts (according to his dad) of Notts county who we would have to pay a nominal fee for as he is under contract.
    We invited him to train with us last pre-season but chose to sign part time terms with Blyth Spartans subsequently moving to Notts county on a free transfer.

    I actually hope this is true, he looks a real prospect. Is there any truth to this?

    I had never heard of him until yesterday. He was the only Notts County player to impress against Harrogate though, goalscoring winger, interesting that we are been linked by his dad

    Well according to his dad that I am sat in the pub with tonight,
    Bradford, hartlepool United And Mansfield have shown interest in him, so the only two viable teams are us and the stags I would say. But under boreyer we showed interest now McCall is interested, I have only seen the lad play for the Newcastle u23's and yesterday play for Notts County but he looks like the real deal.
    ##my honest opinion he looks like a similar player to Shaun Murray those old enough to remember lol)

    He's a player who looked good in the playoff games and his stats since joining notts are impressive. Where has his dad said this?

    So now you are throwing others into the mix. If Mansfield want him then they will get him.

    We can't complete with Mansfield now.

    I liked what I saw of the lad in the two game over the play offs, I can't see us being able to afford the kid as he scored 3 goals in 8 games since he signed for Nott's County they quoted "We have completed the signing of Blyth Spartans' top scorer Cal Roberts on a deal until the end of the 2021-22 season", but as you say watch this space.

    Contracted until 2022 though, so Notts Co will play hardball over keeping him though, surely?

    Of course we can. Mansfield had to sell one of their best players this summer before they started recruiting

    Haha well the TSSB can have a word in his dad's ear, not that it may make much difference but I am only passing on what I have heard from his dad.
    Callum Roberts agent is also from South Shields and ex Rochdale winger Adam Rundle so make of th

    Make of that what you will, I work with callums dad, and obviously he knows who I support, I honestly believe there is some truth to our interest

    So let me get this right.

    He was offered to train with us but decided to joing bloody Blyth Spartans instead.

    Now McCall is interested.

    His stats are impressive but hes contracted to Notts County and only joined them in Jan.

    Not having this sorry. His dad is having you on!

    Well at the time of his release from Newcastle United both bradford and his home town club South Shields were both interested.
    The kid spent less than 6 months at conference north before moving to conference Notts County so surely he has some talent but I bow down to your superior knowledge
