Contracts are not up until end of June so expect movement son otherwise players will be without an income.

I know you are sick of reading comments re Lincoln but they have plenty of cash to spend and to date have made no signings whatsoever this summer and many other clubs have made the odd signing.

I think we will see some movement in the next 10 days and that gives plenty of time to bed in before we go to Chesterfield.

In the meantime Pointless may be worth watching as it seems appropriate given all these threads re lack of transfer activity and Kris hits the "nail on the head"!!

Oh dear, we're already going to have a excrement season and the manager is already getting stick, despite NOBODY having a clue what our first 11 will even look like on the opening day, which is ages away.

Feel like I've said this before, but has the fishy sunk to a new low?

I agree with both sides of the argument. Whilst we have not signed many players and have a full squad complete you can look at it two ways. Slade isn't signing just any Tom, male private and Harry to make the numbers up there for the start of pre-season and has been knocked back by some players who have had better offers financially or the reverse side of the coin, you wait too long for the right players where there is excrement left and you have to pick the best of a bad bunch. I have faith in Slade and trust him to get the right squad sorted and playing to his style. Lots of work ethic, cause the opponents to choke with the ball and us getting goals from mistakes.

The fact Slades hasn't bothered to sign anyone is for me typical Fenty cheap option.


He should sign Graham Rodgers and Peter Handysides.

Danny Collins was virtually last in the door last year wasn't he? And he hasn't turned out too bad... No panic at all at the moment.

Quoted from Kris2
"I'm bored, I have no life beyond The Fishy and going to Grimsby Town games, why aren't we signing players so I can have something to do? When are we signing new players? The players we have are crap we need to sign a whole new team so I have something to talk about".

I think that covers the translation of the above.


Far from bored, enjoying the summer but also aware that we start pre-season games in a fortnight. I'm aware we're not the biggest budget club in League 2 but would have expected some bodies in the building by now.

FFS, the only thing that could make these kind of posts any more entertaining would be for those folk who only deal in death and gloom to hire BP for the day, get Leonard Cohen blasting out of the speakers, and commit mass hara kiri on the centre spot.


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.
