    Looking at that, I'd say we are still a couple of quality signings away from being a top 3 side. Defensive wise, our back up options look weak and we still need a decent number 10 to keep Cooke on his toes /provide cover.
    I'm optimistic there will be more movement, someone tweeted Ryan yesterday after Lavery was announced asking if we were done now and he replied that we'll be done on the 31st August.

    Looking at the teams in this league I bet that most supporters aren’t completely happy with the strength of their teams.
    We look to have a competitive squad

    Have a great day…. Let’s hope for a great result. Opening day away was always special ….but never Exeter to my recollection. Think furthest I have been was Carlisle, moons ago.

    Agree with that but I'd also like to see Vernam start instead of Gillead. AG has flattered to deceive in pre season whereas CV looks like a man with the bit between his teeth and is unlucky not to have notched 2 or 3 times.

    Thoroughly looking forward to watching this from the sunny Canaries, cocktail in hand.

    Tough start though, will be a step up from what we've had to do in pre season. I have no idea what to expect in terms of starting XI.

    Team that started Acci - injury aside (Ridehalgh) is nailed on. Songo'o wont be fit I dont think.

    I do too, I just haven't been able to work out what he brings as yet.

    Early days though, let's hope he has a stormer on Saturday.

    Pretty much agree with that but if I am being picky I would swap Watt and Songo'o for McCall and Abbott. (80's version)

    To be fair, he'd probably be better at catching crosses than R'OD.

    But he'd want paying in craft beers or handmade Goodyear welted shoes.
