    All well and good but if we have gaping holes in our squad, we don’t get to wait for 10 games to pass and then realise we need to fill them. We need to act before the window shuts to give McCall a chance. Any injuries of any type and we are so low on options. A striker is a must. I don’t think it’s unfair to demand that when we were promised our main man vaughan wouldn’t go and definitely not to a rival. Well 8 weeks later we are still waiting

    Why? I read an article about Anfield secret weapon, who is a sports scientist armed with a laptop producing analysis on players, Brentford adopt a statistics approach to signing players. Agents compile clips. Scouting firms compile more honest clips and profiles. Those ridiculing are probably slightly living in the past thinking he just looks at YouTube

    if a club from the league above with a bigger salary cap want to sign him there’s not a lot we can do to be fair

    I agree, but you've read the comments with regards McCall and his Ipod, the days of going out and watching every player your thinking of signing have gone, as you say success can be gained from the likes of your above Brentford being very successful at it.

    I was being facetious, Bogle was never going to sign for any leagfue 2 side, never mind us.

    Yeah sorry. It’s sometimes tricky to determine as there will be the odd fan who thinks we should have done

    Probably way off the mark but a player Woking had on loan last season from Southampton (Tyreke Johnson) has just been recalled by the Saints from a loan in the States as he is expected to go out to a League 2 team. I recommended him to Gary Bowyer and his main scout last season (forgotten his name) as he was having a great spell at Woking but he got a bad shoulder injury which cut his loan short - reason I say unlikely is he is more of a wide man than a striker. Got a trick or two and turned a number of NL defenders inside out, all I would say is he is better than any of the wide men we currently have at the club

    Think he's on the wind up, there was an interview when he signed where he went in detail all the different positions he'd played over the years and brought him on the left of the diamond... he's probably taking the piss out of him for missing chances in training

    We have to remember we are a middling fourth division team. We will get players of that ilk such as Novak, Guthrie et al. We are in the middle of a global pandemic with reduced income, overseen by the regressive regime of Rupp.

    Realism needs to take the front seat in these threads.

    If it was this player, wouldn't he have to quarantine for two weeks?

    We don't 'file' him, he just goes on top of the pile titled 'Targets in June 2021'.

    It's pretty much the same names year in, year out!

    I think it was last week that Bogle was saying he was going to retire, or hinting at it or something, guess he was trying to hurry his suitors up.
