Obviously they think it will be third time lucky for a strategy of buying players in top form and sticking them in the same side whatever the cost. If it doesn't work for a third time (let's hope so), I wonder what they'll do next. My guess is the same thing!

Unless Stone and Hurst count as under 21, we already have too many including the 3 transfer listed players. 

I don't think they will be included in our squad?

[Rampant Zebra]

At least 2 of them can't be.

At least 2 of them can't be. 

Like I said all 3 transfer listed players will not be included in our 22 man squad , they are training with the youth team that says it all

goalkeepers are not included so that makes 17 players signed so far

[Rampant Zebra]

Where did this idea that goalkeepers aren't included come from?

That's a surprisingly good question?

The EFL.

But they haven't updated their website?

Jacko told you the other night

That letter was dated 8th April. I’ve asked Colin Garlick and he says the squad size is 22 over 21s plus goalkeepers so no panic!

Jacko says here that she spoke to Colin garlick and he confirmed 22 plus over 21 players and keepers

The EFL website is silent on this issue (well, nothing in the Player Registration Section, Section 43.9) and so, if Garlick is right (and I don't doubt it), the EFL must have notified clubs separately.

I wonder if the FA has rules about regulations being published in a timely and accurate manner?

Slight typo,  should read 22 over 21 players plus keepers.

So room for 5 more yet.

Just about to write that point myself. They’re signing players like this, hoping third time’s lucky, but they end up with a good squad, not a good team. Just like France at the Euros. Anyway, there are 24 teams in the league, and someone has to be up there with us. Like someone already stated; we can’t sign every good out of contract player out there, so some of them are going to end up elsewhere. All focus on ourselfs, make them fear us, instead of us fearing them! 😊

I wouldn't worry about Salford. We have a few rejects in our side very very motivated to stick it to em to give us an edge.
