What's going on is there a natational shortage of left backs or something, perhaps Dixon will sign in the next few days, otherwise it's a case of get anyone in that we can which is disappointing.

Didn't exactly bomb on too much but looked comfortable on the ball, reasonable in the air and wasn't slow. Very similar to Dixon in that respect so I'd be happy enough for us to sign him. He certainly looked more confident than I'd expect from a player who hasn't played too often at this stage of his career.

I got to be honest and say I was expecting more from big Russ , that we are playing Vernon upfront on his own a week before the season starts is proof In itself . GTFC

Karleigh Osbourne has signed already but looks fast and physical so offers something different to Clarke and Collins Roberts - Unfortunately in the 2 appearances i've seen him doesnt look good enough and is too lightweight. Any news on Brandon Robinson, looked quite promising but seems the management weren't as impressed

Still  weak up front with Vernon seemingly the main striker. Thought we would have concentrated more in this department. The other strikers seem to be still learning their trade. Would prefer Sommerfield to be given more of a chance instead of Berrett-rest of team seem O.K. but agree with jonnyboy that signings haven't set the world on fire-although several have been signed with the future in mind.

Very jittery in possession and gave the ball away no end of times. I don't think he'll play too much of a part this season, injuries permitting.

Cocktail Drinker Posts: 1,795 Posts Per Day: 0.33 Reputation: 83.91% Rep Score: +18 / -3 Approval: +5,476 Gold Stars: 55	We’re a league 2 team…how could any of our signings ‘set the world on fire’? Wouldn’t exactly class Vernon as a striker, more of a forward, who brings a fair amount to the team with his experience up top. Obviously he’s expected to chip in with goals but that’s not the primary reason he’s selected. We’ve had loads of them: Livvo, Rees, Nogan, Woods…..none of these players were prolific goalscorers.

Agree, Vernon ran and chased all night till he was subbed, but its no good playing one up front if there's no support for him. he holds the ball up well, but he cant hold it up forever, especially when there's no town player within twenty yards.
