    Agree he played well on the wing putting in some pin point crosses as well as tracking back late in the game Of course when Vaughan goes we would need somebody to get on the end of his crosses
    Not suguesting he could be a replacement for Vaughan

    It’s not as if we missed out on him yes he would have been a good replacement for Vaughan but as yet we don’t need one

    Its like you don't understand the club and how much it fails you in your blind support.

    Probably not
    But consider Harrogate spotted him and took him on loan
    Something we don't seem capable of doing with any bright young talent
    Watch him have a mare on Sunday now !!!!!!

    Well we certainly can’t accuse you if that. In fact I think you are an infiltrator from a big city club not far from here. I bet your on their site everyday with the mantra Bielza out

    Well that's nonsense. We have had some great young talent on loan over the last 5 years. Where have you been?

    The signings so far have been of a positive nature, young lads with a point to prove or experienced players that have resigned. But there is a lot of pressure of Cooke and Watt to make a big difference to what is essentiallythe same attack and defence as last year that struggled so badly. Some of this was due to a pathetic midfield and a terrible manager but doesn't gloss over this is largely the same team that was going backwards before lockdown. I think the key is Watt if he can do what Josh Cullen did then the others can raise their game accordingly. But its a big ask.

    We sign Elliott, Clarke, Sutton, DHM, ROD and Billy

    Clarke, ROD, DHM were here last season and part of the shocking team.

    Elliott is an improvement on paper but we will have to wait and see

    Is Billy better than McCartan I am not so sure

    Sutton is better than Danny Devine? Not convinced

    So basically we haven't even improved on the 14 players we still have contracted and the players brought in are not that great.

    How anyone can have a positive mindset about us at this moment I never know.

    @Park bantam@Park bantam is living in another world if he think we have made better signings that Salford so far.

    Maybe it's the devious cockney chancer mindset in me, but maybe Salford, Mansfield, Bolton etc are making the big signings early, then voting FOR the salary cap.

    I am not disagreeing about Salford they have people there that have money to throw away at it and should they go up it will be same again next year Bolton and Mansfield have spent a bit with the latter sacrificing their best player to finance it but most of the rest of the league have done nothing. We have resigned our better players and brought in so far a couple of well thought of younger players with more to come. It’s no use worrying about what others are doing it’s about what we do

    Doing the sensible thing.

    I would also have thought that them 3 clubs have sat in the EFL meetings and that league 2 is a joke. It's in danager of being non league..

    We need to get out of that awful league ASAP.

    Well what we have done isn't good enough! Simple really.

    We haven't improved on the rubbish we still have. Guthrie is still here! AOC still here! BRE still here.

    Our of all contracted players still here I would only keep Wood and Vaughan!

    So when you say look at ourselves then I am and we are shite!

    Guthrie, AOC and BRE are still under contract so I assume you're saying we get rid of them by paying up their contracts ?.
