Marshall Willock might be worth a punt and would be cheap. 18 year old towering defender signed from Solihull last summer.

Certainly got the physical attributes at 6ft4.

It's quite amazing that in the past every player signed from a relegated club has been slated by all the Fishy contingent, and I can quote at least half a dozen, yet because M.J. is on honeymoon, the latest relegated player to be signed is now a great signing.

Amazing.

Red crosses on the way.

Having looked at the highlights of our home game against Chesterfield he didn't do much wrong and I think it was him off the pitch injured when the penno was given.

I don't buy the notion that a player from a relegated team should forever be tarnished. Especially when they're this young!

Very much depends on the player. Podge got relegated out of this league but we know he's good enough. Berrett got relegated out of this league and did nothing in two years for us. Let's wait and see how he turns out, I trust MJ's judgement.

Whitmore only played 15 games. Chesterfield were in already deep in relegation trouble when he signed.
At 22 and with Jolleys coaching could prove to be a smart acquisition especially if Collins signs and plays alongside him

Well thought of at Morecambe (he was there on loan) and they were disappointed that he didn’t go back to them last summer. Seems a decent player and more of a victim of being at clubs in difficult circumstances (Bury and Chesterfield).


Up The Mariners!
