    Like Kilgallon, Thorne? Need to stay away from one last pay day but don't underestimate experience. He will have managed Tugay

    Whalley (Shrewsbury) has always been a rather useful player, though he is getting on now.

    RCB

    Songo'o signed a two year deal -
    CITY SECURE SONGO’O SINGING | News | Bradford City (bradfordcityafc.com)

    Staunton contracted to 2024 -
    Staunton signs new contract with Bradford City until 2024 | Bradford Telegraph and Argus (thetelegraphandargus.co.uk)

    Apart from that, you're spot on.

    I was surprised how young he is. Only 33

    Eaves would have been a very good signing from Gillingham but maybe unrealistic with the clubs after him.

    I engender him being on loan at Bristol from Bolton and looking decent and that's probably when we'd have needed to make a move.

    The fact you automatically defaulted to a player who player for us 15 years ago despite signing loads of them probably tells you all you need to know.

    No it doesn't. It says more about our bad recruitment. How about someone like Caddis if want more recent. A true pro who can organise

    If he was that memorable you'd have mentioned him first time.

    Fact is that he was a fairly reliable older pro that was nothing but average yet looked better because we were so poor at the time.

    Killa, Jim O'Brien, Novak, Warnock, Nathan Clarke were old and knackered but looked ok imo. Stead and Jones probably stand outs.

    Short supply but a small number looked alright. Mostly surrounded by shite though.

    I said similar about Spearing even though hes knocking on he's usually in the engine room of the opposition dictating play and sticking the boot in when required (Bolton away every chance he got to tackle Cullen), ironically Fridays showing must have been the worst I've seen him play, Micky Mellon must have thought so too as he was hooked at half time.

    Muldoon at Harrogate would be great.

    Dieng been bagging for fun at Exeter. If we are upgrading Sutton he would do and would add goals and height from set pieces.

    Michael smith at Rotherham the target man sort we need to take pressure off Cook, given Elliott never plays.

    Aden Flint won’t drop to L2 but he’s the big unit we need at the back and scored loads for Bristol City. 32, so will get an offer higher up the pyramid.

    if Walker stays at Hearts and Cooke seeks a new challenge…..welcome back Jack Payne!

    john Marquis signed a short team deal at Lincoln. 29 so has one good contract left. Shame, as he’d be the sort of marquee signing that would shift season tickets.

    Hunter and Lund at Salford would do too.

    GK wise, I’d get a wise old safe pair of hands. Someone of David Marshall’s ilk. He’s only played nine times for QPR but he’s 37 and might retire…..but someone like him, with bags of experience. I presume Bass won’t be available.

    The problem we’re going to face, however, is that Wrexham and Stockport (or whoever else comes up), along with Salford (if they stay down) will offer better packages to players.

    Wrexham have deals signed with Tiktok and all sorts, including Netflix, and they’ll offer silly money and it will still be within whatever the % of turnover requirements are in L2.

    Some cracking names there John Marquis is a proven goal scorer at this level and league one.

    Cracking names but also completely unrealistic unless Rupp is bought out.

    I'm assuming he doesn't watch much league one football or he'd know that Smith has scored 25 goals for Rotherham this year and is probably heading up a division. Either way though he certainly won't joining the list of players in the sh1tpool that we'll be fishing in.
