It's likely that most 'free agent' signings will happen in the next week so managers can get as much pre-season with them as possible. Most contracts ran up to 30th June so many would still be on their old club's payroll up till yesterday.

From the squad numbers announced last week, you can infer there will be four more signings to complete a 23 man senior squad (plus Pollock, Buckley and Curran).

I’d be surprised if most of not all of those signings weren’t complete within the next 10 days. Looking back to the beginning of last season, it’s clear that a good number of players weren’t in the condition they should have been and that had a major impact on the way we started the season.

I think Jolley is conscious of this, this time around and has probably been prepared to pay a premium to get deals done early. There’s a lot to be said for having the bulk of your squad together for a full pre-season. In terms of numbers at least, we must be well ahead of where we’ve been at this stage in recent years.

Fingers crossed that you’re right about Sowunmi! A pairing of him and Ludvig would feel like having a brick wall as centre backs

Hope you're right. Someone I know at Ipswich Town reckons they made a mistake releasing him

Lets hope, if it is him, it is another Ryan Bennett style mistake again from Ipswich!

Bit far into his career for that I think, he's been at Braintree, Lowestoft and Yeovil since he left Portman Road but he was apparently regarded as a good prospect in the Ipswich academy at one time. Not thought to be Championship material at the time but very capable at Div 2 (or even Div 1) level now he's matured a bit.

Yes the comparison is not one that would work very well I suppose.

Completely different types of player as well, I think he was one of the tallest players I have seen at BP! I do remember him dominating in the air last season when we played them last season. You could not say that about Bennett (though he was obviously above L2 even when he was 18 ).
