So what else do we need?

I believe Hursty has said he wants a 25 man squad (including the likes  of  Clifton and Venney) so 6 maybe 7 more to come in.

a 2nd keeper?

We have 7 defenders with a couple who can cover more than one position.  I think PH may bring in another one.

We clearly need some reinforcements up front so at least 2 out and out strikers.

2 or 3 midfielders with  at least one a wide man and versatility to play up top.

Any other players who have been strongly linked with the Mariners?

I think you're about right. I'd be surprised if we didn't bring in a young understudy keeper, seeing as 7 subs are allowed in League 2. I think ideally PH would love to find a left full back who can cover on the right, freeing Davies to be central midfield cover. Think he'll look to bring in 2 more midfielders, probably attacking wide players rather than central (we now have six central midfielders if you include Davies, so not sure we need an extra one there). And then 2 front men- one burley hold-up type and one nippy one perhaps.

It's starting to look pretty good, but we still need two forwards and a second goalkeeper. Minimum. And we need forwards of different but complimentary types who can all score goals at league level. That's still the big missing piece of the puzzle for me. I just hope we're saying "Padraig who?" in a couple of months.

Mani Dieseruwe, 21. Just been released from Chesterfield, big burly player who can play both and would fit the bill. I can't wait for the friendlies now!
