Errr yeah - which is why I said an organised team would serve you well in League Two but probably not higher up the pyramid. Hurst did what he thought he needed to do at the end of the promotion season in order to make us stronger for L2 which for the following season (16/17) was probably proven correct althoug) there appears to be another anomaly in my arguments tonight and the released players all seem to be playing a level above us now?

I will too because I meant to say that an organised team will only get you so far further up. It’s been a long three-and-a-half day week!

Correct me if I'm wrong

but

Wasn't it this window that Newport chucked a lot of money at it last season to get them out of the mire.

Looks like FGR are trying to do the same this window.

Really? Is Gavin Gunning a 'marquee' signing? Whatever that means (apart from 'a big tent').


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The sort of signing to make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck

I think Gunning will strengthen their defence, which is what they need. Port Vale have flourished under Aspin and moved up the league. He wanted Gunning to stay and the fans did too, so i think he's a better player than some on here give him credit for. I liked him myself.

thought Gunning was shocking myself, had one good game IMO...rest of the time just got in the way of the back four he was supposed to be helping...awful distribution .....always a danger of giving free kicks or penalties away and woefully slow........mirrors my own Sunday League career
