WTGR that would be jumping from one shit show to another wouldn't it? Didn't ID say on the season ticket thread you only had 7 players?

Pretty much. We have offered contracts to Nathan Thompson, Obika and Kasim who would be amazing at this level but let's be honest, they are leaving. I don't know if 7 is an accurate number or not but we do definitely require i would imagine at least 10 new players before the start of the season.

Not exactly the ideal preparation for the new season, Power is really dragging his heels on appointing the new manager which isn't helping.

Ah. How good is Yaser Kasim, we were linked with him by your local rag recently?

He has been brilliant for us but last season was as useful as an inflatable dartboard. If you can get 2015 Kasim you've got a really good player but if you get 2017 Kasim then I wouldn't bother.

word on the street is that our shirt sponsors, Imagine Cruising's parent company Dnata Travel who are based in the UAE and a $3.3 billion company, are bringing in substantial investment along with joining the board.

Whether this has more legs than getting bought by Red Bull, time will tell!

Oh Dan, do you really think POwer would let anyone else onto his gravy train, as we all know by now , that anything uttered by Power is utter bull crap!
All these fanciful names that are going to be our new manager, is Power's way of generating people into buying season tickets, and the trouble is people are falling for it.
I can see a combination of White and Hockaday being appointed 4 weeks before the season starts!

Quite happy with that appointment. Should get the players fit at least which would be a start!

Now to sign some bloody players before Mansfield get them all!

Shame, was personally hoping you'd get Sheringham.

Doh

Slightly indifferent but a better proposition than Sheringham. Probably about as good as we could realistically expect.

Will reserve judgement until after the squad build.

Players FIT
For fucks sake did you see our injury list the last 2 seasons?
Over trained and played in every position but their own = disaster.
You will set off alright and then implode, expect at least a 10 game run without a win after 2 months.

That's great, because to be honest I think us L2 lot will be glad to see you relegated out of the football league this coming season. The sooner the better eh.

Redfox is just a downgrade on Carver, although he's already had a few bites. I wouldn't bother replying.

I've not heard that Scottish one before... :gmc:
