Like others have said, I don't think it will be a top performing striker. I would love Umerah but think he will get a L1 move. Might have to chance the arm of someone like Acquah or someone who hasn't been given the opportunities at another club. We will see if Hursty can pull a rabbit out of that never ending hat.

Kieran Phillips * I think he's crocked
|
| Christ you all wanted him sacked a few months ago. 6th place finish and he's now the messiah and can do no wrong Update: I think I've got this right - He was the messiah. He then wasn't. He then was again. Then it turned out he actually wasnt. He turned into one big huge messiah again. Now he's not actually the messiah we thought he was . Now I'm hoping he rises again quickly |

There’s no doubt that Taylor can still hack it at this level, it’s just how many games are you going to get out of him next season? For what it’s worth, I think it’s ok to have Taylor here next season as an option to help see out games or play the odd game when the main man is injured or suspended. But he’d have to be 4 of 4. I’d be wanting to sign Lloyd permanently, keep Taylor as a reserve and maybe let Orsi look for a new club. Then we need to sign 2 strikers on top of that.

Nicke Kabamba? 30 years old and flattered to deceive before this season but has bagged 19 in all comps this season for Barnet. Has been at Hartlepool, Nothampton, Kilmarnock, Colchester and Portsmouth before so he's ticked the unfashionable town, Northern town and seaside town boxes before.

Kabamba could be the out of the hat signing that very few have mentioned.
Again, as with others, the right build, decent age, has played further north previously, and hopefully one of those in the Head of Recruitment's sights.
Surely we will go looking earlier this year, while the publicity of the cup run is fresh in potential signings' minds???
Time for this researching Head to come to the fore and earn his crust, so that we do have an honest chance of going higher, and more consistent, next season.
Physicality and raw pace, combined with better passing. Ok, it's Div 2, so there will be mistakes made by those who would be playing higher if perfect players.
Reality - improve shots on target, don't dawdle at the back making silly mistakes, improve the passing accuracy - too many soft passes that are not reaching players, or not in front to run on at pace.
There's a lot that a full pre season could correct for next year.
We're still here in Div 2 this year, so let's aim for the play offs or above next year.
Thank you, Jason and Andrew, for putting pride back in the team for the town.

I suspect that National League goals really shouldn't be considered as being on a par with League goals. The majority of the top goalscorers in the National League don't get anywhere near the same numbers when making the step up. Obviously, there are always the odd exceptions, but you don't get many Jamie Vardys around! Or Andre Grays.
Alan Connell scored more goals in that one season with us than the remainder of his career after he departed!

Non Starter I reckon - if he was homesick at Exeter he'd be positively bed-ridden up here.
The term would be "positively Butlered" up here 😂

I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised to see Vernham back with us next season
