    Glad he’s got a club, probably about his level tier 6 now. Hopefully he helps them go open, fantastic away day.

    Are you serious?

    The fact he has gone up in the middle of the park with Plymouth and Morecombe says a lot to me. The manager rates him.

    Think he could still do a job at this level with someone if he stays fit, suppose he’ll want to be close to home. Hartlepool could do worse.

    I don't really know a lot about him but you can't really argue with 2 promotions. Looks to be a great addition on paper.

    Agreed.

    I'll wait to see who else we bring in but as far as back up lone front men go Novak could have been a decent member of the squad. Hopefully we get better but it'll be difficult.

    I liked Novak but far too injury prone. Cant be paying players who spend half their time on the treatment table.

    Yeah I can't argue with that but the worry is that we end up with a young loanee that doesn't add anything to the squad so if Cook is unavailable we're toothless again.

    We are after that lad from Maidenhead. From what I gather he is 6'3 target man. Hopefully pull that one off but Burton in for him. Like Threlkeld,Parker wrote an article about him so he may have already signed.

    I think its ineviatable we end up with a young loanee as 3rd choice.

    We are still in the market for another forward so I think your concern will be addressed by Adams before the new season starts.

    He'd have said the same if we were signing N'Golo Kante

    Sparks tweeted yesterday plenty more to come over the next seven days. Id suggest plenty is at least 3 new players. He is tactfully announcing these to keep the news flow coming and give a boost to ticket sales.

    Where does Watt fit into this new look squad no mention of him, lots of talk on songo and battling midfield generals but if case where does he fit?? A lot went through him last season I admit was surprised people wanted him as I wasn’t a huge fan. Also you have Sutton who naturally is a full back but was playing as DM then there’s Evans the bad press with Adams now EisA signed so looks like full back or out interesting few weeks lots of questions to be answered

    Watt alongside sonog’o gives him a bit more freedom, think we ll see a much better player this season! Sutton at right back

    Sutton will be back up next season, it wouldn’t surprise me to see Evans move on. Watt could play alongside Songo'o if we sign him and Threlkeld possibly right back?

    It will be interesting to see how it all pans out when the squad is complete

    Yep, I'd agree with this completely. The right mental attitude and aptitude is definitely a tick in the box, especially when one considers players like Hope Akpan, who'd suffered back to back relegations before joining the club.

    Look, I am not saying he isn’t a good addition.

    I replied to the someone basically saying it would be our best signing. We need better still.

    Watt could be sold. Interest from other clubs.

    However, if he stays then he is playing. Sutton on the bench and rightly so.

    Whether it turns out to be Songo or another DM, it's a position we've all been crying out for years to be filled so whoever it turns out to be, it could well be the most important signing we make this summer.
