    Higher up the pyramid that is definitely true but in league 2? Look at the 4 teams that got promoted last season, other than Bolton, who threw money at a promotion push? And Exeter and Newport can hardly be described as money bags teams yet they've been there or there abouts the past few seasons.

    Lets hope the lad Songo'o is one to come in this coming week, sooner rather than later.

    The clubs commercial income is the best for 10 years season tickets are going well under the circumstances and improvements are being made all over the club. We aren’t flush but I believe we are in a reasonable financial position

    I hear Valley Parade resembles a building site at the moment, as you say Davide Longo is doing a sterling job.

    Will Songo'o require international clearance? Maybe thats the delay. A backlog.

    It may be as simple as he hasnt had his photos done yet.

    Yet on football matters and everything else inc, revenue through retail sales / transfers etc they are stony broke, so are Colchester and and and and.

    In that respect they are EXACTLY like the rest of the division except , far worse because of the big salaries they pay out.

    I’m not sure he would need international clearance as we wouldn’t be signing him from a different country?

    Sparks has been very open from the start that we aren’t going to be among the top payers in the league so we may have missed out on one or two good players. However Adams has been employed because he has a history of getting the best out of players in his charge and as well as any new signings I think we already have players signed up who have more in the in them in the likes of Paudie Watt Sutton Cooke Vernham and Crankshaw.

    Songo’o was quoted on the Morecambe boards as missing his family so he may have decided to stay with them as long as possible he may also have decided to sign for a club nearer to them

    Those mentioned above certainly have potential and under Adams I believe we will see just what they can offer to the squad this coming season.

    I dont think that matters. He a foreign national and has previously been registered abroad for other clubs. Thats the criteria.

    Are his family in France maybe he's in quarantine and he hasn't signed a contract yet.
    Reading up on him I believe he's still under contract at Morecambe until September.
