Whiskey Drinker Posts: 3,548 Posts Per Day: 1.10 Reputation: 63.94% Rep Score: +19 / -13 Approval: +1,192 Gold Stars: 55	So let me just quantify this We currently have 13 players contracted: McKeown Mills Boyce Clements Summerfield McAllister Berrett Bolarinwa Browne Jones Asante Yussuf Vernon We want to keep 4 more: Andrew Pearson Davies Collins Plus 1 youth Clifton That leaves us needing 5 or 6 new players unless some can be shipped out for free transfers. These targets presumably include (assuming everyone signs, which they won't) at least one winger, another striker, another centre half and a utility defender. I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

If the other 4 sign, then we will have 19 contracted players including Clifton. Slade said he wants 22 plus one or two youth players, so that leaves room for four more senior players in that scenario. I think some of those contracted will be surplus to requirements and eased out to free up some more slots.

Just thought he never lived up to the billing he got from Bignot to be honest Bignot didn't live up to the billing he got from Bignot either!

Guest User	Still haven't worked the lad out. He could have been a legend, then again he could have been proper shite! A loony we haven't seen for many a year. Never ever a defensive midfielder and I would challenge Marcus Bignot and indeed Russell Slade to explain why they thought he had any attributes at all to play there (vision, acceleration, range of passes, discipline, tackling). I think he is more of a hatchet man centre back, the type that slices clearances over the upper Findus. Good luck Gav, you absolute mad man.

Who can remember who that was? I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

They all said we'd signed a class act (when playing centre half, might I add). I know we can always argue about the relative qualities of the Scottish second tier against L2, but I don't remember how many times we actually played him at centre back. I think he was a victim of MB's recruitment regime. He was signed because we were able to get him, not because we needed him. It was an unnecessary signing, on reflection, but it's always easy to say these things in hindsight. Good luck, Gav. Make sure your next club wants you, needs you, and promises to play you week in, week out, in your favoured position, if you want to re-establish yourself in the FL.
