Shrinking playing squad

Quoted from oldun

I can understand some of the concern about the shrinking squad, rest assured S & H will have all bases covered. Using their network of contacts, internet intelligence and from watching many games themselves they have built up a comprehensive database of potential new players to bring to GTFC based on the allocated playing budget and the style of play they believe will achieve success. Tha database covers all positions in the team based on a squad of 20 or so players. This will be made up of first choice first team squad (16 players) plus 4 or 5 players for cover and who have potential to develop further. For each position they have identified their top preferred target together with a second choice if they are unable to sign the first choice. There is also a back up list to be considered if neither of the first 2 are available/want to come here. If not needed the back up list will be watched further as the season develops with a view to possible loan signings and/or attempts to sign in January depending upon which positions they feel need to be strenthened. They have already identified targets should any of the existing contracted players be transferred out of the club, for example if the club accepts an offer for Liam Hearn and he agrees to move. So you can see with careful planning and an oversupply of players looking for clubs we have no need to have concerns about the shrinking squad. A clear strategy, forward planning and skillful negotiating skills are all in place to ensure 2012/13 is THE season. UTM
