a lot of work to still do......................3 players in are all good additions for me
Warne says he wants a squad of 20, I think that is low in the modern game and 23 makes more sense. I wonder how much it is what he wants and what he has been told he can have...........we will never know
I think we have more than 17 Derby. Yates is on a season long loan and i believe Lewthwaite and McGinley have been released. Not sure about Forde. Has he gone or is he still thinking about it ?
I make it this
Price and Bilboe G.K
Jones , Ajayi, Robertson, Wood, Ihiekwe, Purrington, Hinds and Mattock. Defenders.
Palmer, Crooks, McDonald , Wiles and Lamy Midfield.
Proctor, Vassell, Smith Ladapo, Morris and Kayode. Strikers
Some of these might be moved on if we can get interest. People like Palmer, Purrington should be moved and i will not be surprised if offers come in for Ajayi and Smith. So that would leave us a bit thin. A goalkeeper, a wide left player and at least another central midfielder required in my opinion.
Whose gone who'll we'll miss apart from Vaulks & Williams. I'm looking at certain or possible starters for the opening game. No goalkeeper. Jones Ajayi Ihiekwe Mattock or Purrington Lamy Mcdonald Wiles Crooks Smith Ladapo Morris Vassell. Doubt if Ajayi & one of the left backs will be here so on my count 8 players required to make the 20 up with Price the keeper on the bench.
Daniel Barlaser a midfielder from Newcastle should be in tomorrow. Highly rated played 40 odd times for Accrington last year. Grant Ward and the goalkeeper Iversen down to join soon as well so that should flesh things out a bit more.
Be nice to maybe see another wide player come in as well as an added option.
Palmer may yet get another chance would have thought he’d have gone by now. Personally don’t rate him just hasn’t had any influence on any of the games I’ve seen him play.
latest from Warne is
Southend lad we won't go above £200k
Ross County lad we really like him but we may not go above the £150k
Semi may leave
we want to sign blackpool lad as replacement
sorry but losing out on our targets over a few £100k isn't good
and another star about to leave, TS needs to fund this fringe deals and get them players in, we have already slashed the wage bill and are £1.6m up on transfers
We know Ajayi he's going to go. Get it done ASAP get Tilt in to replace him. Another thing I can't understand Mattock turned down a longer contract, we the club took the option for the years extension to his contract. Purrington he's got a year left on his contract, have we the club got the option to extend his contract by a year? If we have it makes sense to Keep Purrington 5 years younger & sell Mattock. Or is that too simple.
I bow to your superior knowledge I bet they drìnk typhoo tea at QPR. Looks as if Purrington might be going back to Charlton tipping £300 000 I would be happy with that more money in the budget.
Mattock refusing a longer contract means the sale of purrington makes no footballing sense. We are not in a good position the outs compared to ins is huge as for the £300k going into the transfer pot mmmmmmm we will wait and see. The lack of signings is a need to be concerned
I've already said if Mattock doesn't want to sign a contract get shut keep Purrington. We the club took the option to extend Mattock's contract by a year. A lot of things don't make sense to me under Warney. JCH, Dom Ball & Williams released without any money coming back to the club while we f*ck about with 3 wingers next to useless namely Forde, Taylor & Newell. Contracts to players ready for retirement like Wood & injured like Proctor. Still say Williams left cause Warney wouldn't play him then we are f*cking about with Grant Ward who won't be fit this side of Xmas if ever.

No point living in the past we have to move on it's swings and roundabouts we got Ajahi for nowt if he goes we will get decent money for him. If Mattoch goes at the end of the season so be it.
Are you spelling our player's names wrong for effect TH? I'm starting to wish exetermiller had let the site die as it's been taken over by two knuckledragging neanderthals
I see the No1 speller has crawled out from under his rock. This is a football site more interested in what the millers do next season. Anyway it's party time Season Cards ready to collect 2 friendly tickets to get. I'm getting ready for the new season.
Brad if this site was left to a narrow minded neanderthal like you it would be dead. You just want your own way. Moaning about paying for friendly's ect... pathetic.
