League one forever Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 A lot of the rumours seem to be for #englishlads. I don’t think AL will be able to help himself with some signings, but there does seem to be a shift in policy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Mills and Woods aren’t bench warmers, neither are some of the names bandied about. If he signs six homegrown lads and they all start, that is a big shift from last year.

I agree but I'd also say they are not going to be any better than those they've replaced so whilst it appears the policy may have changed we are still in desperate need of both numbers and quality particularly in forward positions. Names being bandied about means sod all until they've signed on the dotted line so I'd prefer to keep my powder dry on that one before getting too excited.

But the reported opinion on here, a month ago, that anyone brought in was going to be significantly worse because of "peanuts" level wages offered (Apologies to Peanuts).

Granted Mills might be a steady fullback but you've lost two of out top 3 players from last season out of that defence with no sign so far of suitable replacements. Surridge, Lang, Iverson, Edmondson and Clarke where the best five players consistently last season, all gone and without them last season we'd of been relegated or close to it, like I say the two signings are promising but on paper not in the same category as what we've lost.

We were told that a couple of clubs were after Mills...so we would, supposedly, have to make the offer attractive.

Fair comment, I've heard one or two have been put off moving to the club but there will still be others happy to make the move, I'm not trying to crab the signings I think they are positive but the lad from Morecambe will see it as a step up to a bigger club for sure and he probably enjoyed the atmosphere we generated at their place last season, Woods I don't know too much about but I've heard mainly good reports so in hopeful, Iverson will be some keeper to replace though.

Good points. Regarding Mills, I would like to think the Lemsagem brothers made notes on opposition players last season should they become available.

Not sure any player in this day and age genuinely considers whether the fans create an atmosphere. They just say it cos its media friendly.

JTM Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 Some of these rumours, bullshit as most of them will most likely be, are pretty exciting to be fair. Maybe Mo is actually willing to throw some cash about. Danny Mayor and Zach Clough should be way out of our league but even Nixon on twitter reporting we are after Clough but going to be difficult to actually get the deal done. Pretty excited to see who we actually sign Edit: I just remembered we were paying Menig £10k a week actually Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
