Paul Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I think the signings of the likes of Woods, Mills and Wilson are fine, British players who know the leagues but the latest foreign recruits Im sorry, do absolutely nothing for me other than make me worry about the season ahead. Throw in Vera, Sefil etc I am seriously worried. There is absolutely no chance of us getting promoted with this squad, no chance at all, the only thing to hope for is staying up, plain and simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I've read today they're only 100 or so sales short of last season's total. Should be some big signings in soon with the budget increase.

GlossopLatic Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I remember when I used to think Andy Ritchies class off 99 which was dragged to safety by John Sheridan was the worst Oldham Athletic team of all time. I honestly reckon they would wipe the floor with the current side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My match going pals and I used to often shake our heads in disbelief at the likes of Allott, Tipton and the McNivens et all, but looking back most of those were world beaters compared to what we have now. I predict a difficult season ahead, just as well I’m still boycotting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First one was going to be Carlisle, but Mrs V beat me to it last week and booked that day out, so Newport I think will be my first match of the season. I’m a stubborn bastard and neither you or anyone else will see me inside BP until the ’s have gone for good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the squad right now a season ticket doesnt look good value for money I'll be happy to be proved wrong and if I do people will come back. But at the moment any money going towards the club right now will be badly spent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought twice for over £150k. Not sure Ashton United would send a young Garnett back early from a loan. Not a centre half in the club anywhere near him.
