Not sure of either of their contractual situations, but I'd have James Collins off Luton if deemed not good enough for L1, and I also really like Shay McCartan who has been at Bradford, and previously at Accy and Burnley.

Quoted from MuddyWaters
Don't know if he's a Chesterfield player but Kellett looked OK but would rather have Charles Vernam.


I think Kellet is on loan from Wigan. Had a good game against us.

My theory is that most of who Jolley signs may be unknown to us, after all the time he spent at Burnley and do not forget Crystal Palace along with that means he will probably have a very good knowledge of players that are being released as not good enough for Premiership clubs.
Bare in mind that these may turn out to be gambles as soem may well never have played any league football.

Half the problem now at these top end clubs is they can have players upto the age of 24/25 that never go anywhere. Must be some right Gems there for the finding and hopefully he knows of a few.

I can see us having a very young squad ext year with the likes of Collins keot on for there experience to help the young uns.

It won't happen but I think Jolley & Pearson are a match made in heaven. Would love him back.

He's most likely enjoying Wrexham . Doubt he would come back after the diabolical way we treat him-and I for one wouldn't blame him.Anyway he still has a year left on his contract.

We need signings that make the hairs on the back of the neck stand up

Think we just need to be clever with our selections rather than chucking loads of money at players. Accrington and Wycombe are proof that this works. What we do need though is to put our main attention on 2/3 proven goalscoring strikers.

Would love someone like Mohamed Eisa from Cheltenham but would guess he would move up the leagues rather than join us

We’ve got to be realistic in the sense some other teams will just simply pay more than us and have better things going for them such as location. Our facilities are borderline dogshit and the only good thing going for us is a great set of fans with what seems to be a very good young manager in Jolley. More realistic signings will probably be those who are younger from Premier League clubs and have just been released or the likes of up and coming non league startlets. We might just pick up the odd star who’s considered too old like a Disley sort of character. There still is a lot of football to be played in the playoffs which some clubs might choose to retain or release players. Whatever happens we will be the next season like we always are giving the team everything and maybe just maybe we might taste a little bit of football league success.

Don't forget MJ spent some time managing in Sweden and will have contacts there and some knowledge of players.  I wouldn't be surprised if one or two new signings are from there.  Plus, I think he's the type of coach managers like Sean Dyche would trust good y
oung players with for a season long loan.
