    But we haven't replaced the amount of players who have left or not re signed so the squad depth is much weaker hence the numbers I said.

    We will still have players who won't get sniff this season smith Oduor Wilson to name 3. We are still lightweight in numbers and quality.

    Correct, they aren't. Which also means we aren't.

    Lots of work to do in terms of quality and quantity but plenty of time to get it right. I am not writing off Richards and Kelly until I hear otherwise, they are still our players and don't need replacing at the time of press.

    Nuefville > Johnson/Benn
    Tilt > Crichlow
    Wright > Shepherd
    Power > Smallwood

    In terms of numbers and I guess positions, we now need to replace Adaramola, Khela, Walker and Mellon.

    Smith and Wilson are probably done and will be told to find new clubs. Oduor may have a part to play - he wasnt used as he was injured from February-May I believe GA said.

    Why does it mean we aren’t?

    Because we are a promoted side and our squad at this moment in time isn't ready - bookies have us at 25/1.

    Although I don’t think we’re gonna be more than midtable, it’s unfair for some (not all) to downplay the signing of Neufville who despite coming from likely relegation fodder is far too good for league two in my opinion, not sure if you personally were putting down the signing but some have and it doesn’t make sense.

    Wimbledon not being challengers doesn’t make signing their players a bad move nor does it impact our prospects

    If you’re just saying we won’t be getting promoted again then fair enough I agree

    Dan Agyei from Leyton Orient
    Marcus Browne from Wimbledon
    Something Wallace from Millwall

    rumours but not sure if there’s anything to them
    Think most credible is Wallace I’ve seen some actual journalists mention we’re interested but seen some saying there’s Blackpool and Hudds in for him so no clue

    edit: no clue where the post I replied to has gone now

    No, just saying if Wimbledon aren't classed as challengers then neither are we so we shouldn't get upset about signing their players.

    No I think Nuefville is a cracking signing. If we could sign the best players from Notts C, Walsall, Wimbledon and Chesterfield then we would definitely be up there.

    Agyei just being thrown around on social media
    Browne somebody put on here
    Wallace (think that’s his name) has been mentioned by a couple of EFL journos on Twitter but a couple also saying recently that we’ve pulled out as Town and someone else are wanting him.

    That post was replying to someone asking who we’re linked with but I can’t seem to find it now.

    Not saying we’re signing any of them either just mentioning names that have been thrown around
