  1. I'd be surprised if we are not after a recognised right back, but I think we have sufficient resources to fill in for a few games - Sutton, Shelton- without weakening the positions they play in, which means we don't have to push the boat out cash wise. And if we can't find one we want at a price we like I would have thought young right backs available on loan from the EFL are ten a penny. Not that we need ten, that would be silly.
  2. Agreed. I watch a lot of NPL and it's a reasonable standard and a first taste of men's football for some of these youngsters. I've seen some loanees from the Championship. Workington are an organised club with a promising manager who were promoted last year. I look forward to seeing him play.
  3. I saw it reported as a 'six figure release clause '
  4. I would have said Solihull as well before their manager left. They had made some really good signings already.
  5. https://www.theoldhamtimes.co.uk/sport/23618477.midfielder-rooney-verge-oldham-athletic-exit/ Rooney and Leutweiller on the move according to Suzanne.
  6. Agreed. His starting line up is almost certainly going to have at least 5 new players. They will need time to settle.
  7. We are very old. The first time I interviewed someone born in the 2000s I knew it was time to pack in.
  8. Interesting because they have made a number of signings already. Has he got a league job lined up?
  9. Jack Stobbs has signed 12 months deal at Torquay.
  10. I thought I'd read that they are also heavily in debt after borrowing to pay off HMRC previously.
  11. I'm slightly surprised at that and thought it might be more but I suppose some existing season ticket holders are yet to renew. I wonder how many sold are full price. I've talked to people who don't intend to go every week so have bought a kids ticket so they can go, pay full price on the day but have a guaranteed seat. I turn 65 this year so have got a pensioners ticket for £175 which compares very favourably with the offer from other NL clubs.
  12. My thoughts exactly. I thought we would be left with 17 not 22. Luamba Hope and McGahey I expected to leave. I think we need 3 additions minimum. He needs to get rid of a few. Burgess McGahey Windass and maybe 2 others.
  13. Thanks for organising it again, it's been fun. Sometimes more fun than watching the actual games we were predicting.....
  14. Byron Webster, also been about a bit. I would guess they've had their moments in the past.
  15. Completely agreed with bringing him on. But play him centre half, Sutton to right back Shelton in midfield. Simple. Manager threw the game away.
  16. He has done. Bloody stupid. Formation now is all over the place.
  17. I didn't think so. If there was a touch I thought it came off a defender.
  18. Currently the football remains awful and tonight we were outpassed for 3/4 of the game. However we have now become hard to beat and carry a goal threat. The managers decision to change the formation shows some understanding of why we were being overrun and it worked. We have won 3 consecutive games without conceding. Onwards and upwards.
