Will be called a moaner and who are we expecting to sign but for me so far and despite me being delighted with the Rico signing, I feel we improved the squad with the 4 signings so far but if I'm being honest, none of those would be starting over what we had here last year, just my opinion.  As mentioned before, league 1 will be really tough next year, far tougher than last time and while we are better prepared, I still like to see a minimum of 4 players brought in who will be going straight into that first 11.

My mate who's a cov season ticket holder reckons Shirley's a good goal scoring midfielder with a good left foot,  lacks pace for the championship, but good for league one. 

Don't call him Shirley!

Do you think Shipley can put in a good word with his old team mate Viktor as I heard he was looking for a move and we need a striker.....

Right! I've been on Wiki! Not much! What do we know? What kind of a midfielder have we got?

More detailed now. Expect the ocassional worldie

4 solid signings so far. Definitely improves our squad depth in terms of quality. Expect a centre back (probably a marquee signing), a keeper and a striker then 2-3 loans as extra squad players. Happy so far with the business we’ve done!

I think a lot of Chelsea youngsters will be loaned out to lower league clubs this summer,this lad wont be for us though as he plays RB/LB but he is the type I think the new head of recruitment will be tasked with finding.

I dont think any of our signings so far will be his finds,he will be more for the January and next summer windows I would guess although he might know of a couple of loans this window with his contacts in the game

He can definitely play CB as well.Very quick, decent aerial presence and good on the ball

 

Cheltenham Town are looking to sell George Miller so that they can afford a budget this summer.

Would you like to see him at Vale ?

Averages a goal every 4.2 games. could be the experience that we are looking for to back up Stockley. 
 

Could easily chip in with 8 - 10

goals per season for us

I think you mean Cheltenham. Not really backup for Stockley,  he's a different type of player.

They are both centre forwards and Big D is looking for a striker with League One experience that’s a bit different to what we currently have.

He will do for me 

Any of these signings spotted by Gareth before they put pen to paper?

Not since they put the big fence up.

I can see him buying a drone

Even if he is ahead of croasdale (and if he is then it’s a cracking signing), i cant see him plying ahead of Byers, Walter’s and Garrity. I think Walters is going to be a beast this season. 

Agree on Walters, that’s if we can keep him though.
