    You say 'Riley' and 'leak' in the same sentence and all I can think is 'Rachel'....

    @Park bantam@Park bantam

    They're talking about Callum Woods, not Connor Wood.

    I'd release both, myself.

    Callum is gone.

    Yes mixed them up think Nixon must have as well. Connor is decent and good cover

    Definitely acceptable cover at L2.

    Nothing like good enough to be starting at L1 last season, however, but hopefully we've learned our lesson and/or have a more realistic manager.

    The problem with releasing Connor Wood might be that we would still need cover there and anyone we bring in may eat further into the budget.

    Wood is a young lad with time on his side to improve and I think we'd possibly see a big improvement from him when playing in a more organised and functional defence.

    Let's be fair, playing in that back 4 last season and with NKP and A O'Connor covering you can't have been easy for a complete rookie and as such I think it's far too early to form a proper opinion of his value to the squad.

    Maybe the romanticism of living by the sea is clouding my judgement. See this as a good thing then when competing

    These ITK people are quite tedious, they've been around since I visited the first City forums around 1998.
    However, 0.01% of them are genuine, and can make the summer marmite season interesting, TCA's seems to have their finger on the pulse, therefore I occasionally visit on twitter to see latest rumour.

    Yes Bowyer said we need pace and power out wide and down the middle, I can't remember Donaldson being pacey but he definatly has power and presence, if we can keep Vaughan fit I think he will suprise a few.
    The season he played at Bury he had a few chances against us where he made space for himself, I hear what your saying but I'm delighted with those two signings.

    To be honest it’s great I think we have some people on here and TCA who seem to know what’s going on.

    It’s been much more exciting this pre season than any other and that’s thanks to the leaks and people seem genuinely excited about going to watch city again.

    I think it helps how quick we have been to nail down our targets and there doesn’t seem as much crying in the paper about being gazumped like previous seasons.

    Long may it continue and I hope they keep sharing the info. Makes it a lot more interesting site to visit. Felt a bit dead before

    Agree, I think what has thrown most fans is not who broke the news but the quality of the two signings so far.
    After the season weve just had and the comments from Rupp about covering the money side many expected we would have had to sell before we could make signings but at the moment that doesn't seem to be the case, and long may it continue.
    Edit: obviously I'm responding to the Donaldson and Vaughan signings but I'm also delighted with the others :thumbup:.

    I'm quite pleased with the summers recruitment so far, probably as good as we could have hoped for.
    There seems to be far more strategy to what type of player brought is in, certainly on the back of last summers transfer window.

    Our new Strikers are definitely in the experienced 30 something camp, however if they can add the sort of quality Stead and Thorne did in their tenure, then they will be great additions to the squad.

    It's well discussed and documented about all the failings of last season, and no way can all the problems be solely attributed to the players, but, I'm very unforgiving on many of them.
    I will be happy if we managed to move them on, don't wish to see any player out of work, good luck to them, however please waste a shirt elsewhere.

    I agree. He could end up better as a left midfielder. Think he/Gary needs to work out his best position lest he becomes the next Danny Devine midfield/right back oddity.
