Summer transfer targets/rumours, retained list etc

Signings today look very good. I think the strengthening in midfield is shifting us above the relegation zone to a top half team. In defence we have also got a good collection and with some flexibility in positions. I do wonder if we will bridge the budget gap to the top teams by a smaller first team squad. That is what Solihull Moors tried to get out of the National League including signing players that can play in multiple positions. It's a legitimate strategy and can provide opportunity for young players.

tommy mc, plant, agyakwa, robinson, maybe brad the trialist gk are the development squad lads this season.

To play full training games there must be at least 22 players available and preferably 30 plus. There is an ethical issue with academies where many are in reality collecting a group of players to allow practice games and there is little chance any of those players will breakthrough to the first team squad. The higher up the leagues we climb the more challenging to breakthrough. But we have owners of high moral standing and so I hope that issue is addressed.

Its a VERY old story AND they've got the wrong player........they're getting mixed up with Peter Swan's transfer there for £300K 28 years ago!

I was looking to see what "Smith" had tweeted about Will Forrester and that came up in the search.

I never said it was an issue? I said it's interesting he would leave his boyhood club to sign for their rivals in search of first team football. It's admirable.

Smith and Gibbo are Stoke fans aren't they? Never questioned their commitment once!

I reckon most would if the situations were reversed. Vale in the Championship, you as a player told that sorry, you won't be getting game time next season but Stoke (in L1) are interested, as much as it'd hurt you'd have to think about your career.
