Thought we had plenty of cover at right back so hopefully a significant upgrade on what we have.
Left back feel essential.

Jack Hunt has just been released by Stockport. Were we going to sign him before Hunt was sacked?

He's 35, so would be pretty impressive if we managed to make our back four even slower.

I've been thinking that Richardson might want to play Marriott and Keane up front together, but our full back positions are possibly too weak to play it confidently. Whether that's 442 or 352, Dorsett isn't a full back and Yiadom is getting on a bit now. Good positions to sign for me and means Dorsett can provide cover for CB too.

Fingers crossed the players are League 1 ready.

That Dan weirdo who demands a signing every hour of the day will be pleased.

It does make me laugh that after every defeat the Twitter crowd just demand signings or start suggesting all sorts of shite players and tag in that Todd bloke

We’d end up with about 100 players if they had their way

Brogue not sure of names yet


The club is already in double figures of those that can play in these positions (list below) so reckon on this being BS

Ryan
Clarke
Garcia
R Williams
Abrefa
Yiadom
Dorsett
Ahmed
Beacroft
Rushesha

Ryan - Injured for next 6-9 months
Clarke - Injured and likely to be released in summer
Garcia - Winger / Out of favour
R Williams - Winger
Abrefa - Out of favour
Yiadom - Old and OOC at end of season
Dorsett - Centre Back
Ahmed - 17 Y/O and needs a loan
Beacroft - Out of loan
Rushesha - Midfielder and will be released in the summer

Think it definitely shows we need both RB and LB

The club is already in double figures of those that can play in these positions but unfortunately from that list they fall into one or more of the following categories:

- they are perma-crocked
- they are too old
- they are too young and need a loan spell
- they are not very good or don't suit Richardson's game plan
- they are likely to be released in the summer

If someone better than those listed has become available then it makes sense to pursue it

Alternatively it could be BS

He's no better than Earnshaw was, probably worse in fact. About as useful as a chocolate teapot.

I hope Brogue is right as we urgently need some pace at the back. However, I have no faith in JJ’s ability to get deals done.
