He scored 6 goals in 16 games for Forest Green Rovers in League One last season which proves at League One he’s still capable. How he ever disguised himself as a premier league player is a different question 😂

As mentioned by numerous people we are lacking in the forward areas so as I did last year I thought I’d put a couple of options below that hadn’t been mentioned incase anyones curious who is still available: Alex Jakubiak - I think he’s the most interesting out of the lot as he’s only 26 and...

Thanks mate! That’s exactly why I wrote it, I thought it’s better to show we could actually have some decent solutions out there so everyone just needs to be patient and moan on deadline day if they aren’t happy Haha my thinking there was we clearly have a million sat around to buy a player...

Haha as I said I’d be happy to put that together if anyone is interested 🤷🏻‍♂️😂 Thanks mate, it’ll definitely be interesting to see if any of those players sign; I guess if they do I can consider my self a championship scout haha

Ok cool so I guess you’d potentially register 19/20 players and then leave 5/6 spaces open for new signings/any of the injured players you’d like to register once they are back fit and then offload the rest of them whether on permanent or loan deals

Thanks mate! That’s a different question that needs to be considered, I just had a look at Matt Scrafton’s latest spreadsheet and I’d say we’ve got 19 that’ll definitely be registered. I’ve forgotten how it works with registering injured players but the ones I’d say aren’t definite inclusions...

I’d say that players have become a lot more mercenary like over the last 10/15 years, Matt Le Tissier recently spoke about when he was at Southampton he was offered 8 times the money to go to Chelsea I think it was but he turned it down as he loved the club. You don’t/won’t get many of players...

I’ve written another thread called “Free Agents” in case anyone is interested to see what’s still around in positions we need players 👍🏻

Oh nice well I think either of them would be good additions in the middle of the park, they are at complete opposite ends of the experience spectrum so I guess it depends what route the club want to go down. My head would say probably Stephens as we need that experience in there but let’s see

I think so mate, let’s see what happens in the coming weeks

Haha I’m waiting in the wings for the call, I’ll have to balance it with running my business but I think I can do both jobs based on what I’ve seen so far from the team 😬😂

He’s been a free agent since last summer so I’d probably say his playing days are past him

Thanks mate! Yes I think so, it’s definitely not as gloomy shopping in the free agent market as some would think! Haha I’ll get back to it tomorrow, weather app said it felt like 51 degrees yesterday; it was scorching 😅

Thanks mate! I’ve looked at a couple of their instagrams and a few of them seem to have been putting themselves through pre season, of course they won’t be match fit as they’ve not been amongst a group of players but as long as the base fitness is there then hopefully it won’t take them to long...

I’d definitely be pleased with that, let’s see what the next few weeks hold. If he signs consider me ITK 😂

Thanks mate!

That does seem odd! I’d imagine he’s picked up a good few quid in his career so he’s probably waiting around making sure his next move is the right one for him. Hopefully his ankle injury isn’t too serious if we are interested

Leading on from Appleton’s article in LancsLive I thought I’d do a little bit of transfermarkt free agent scouting. Resorting to free agents sounds rather depressing after being in talks for a lot of highly regarded players who would have cost money from clubs but as we’ve seen with the likes of...

These are a few suggestions if anyone from the club is reading this: https://www.transfermarkt.com/george-hirst/profil/spieler/420808 - good variation of goals from his highlights last season and we could potentially get him included on a permanent deal as part of the bowler sale...
