Must say I'm impressed that Jolley is signing players on 2 year plus contracts.
Shows he's forward thinking and giving continuity into the following seasons and building a squad for the future.
Plus he seems to have realised what we need to push up this league and has been proactive rather than reactive whilst ensuring he gets the player he wants rather than years gone by when it's been bargain basement, squad filling journeymen.
Loving the mix of experience, youth, quality and team togetherness that he's building which in turn relates back to the title of this thread as players given longer contracts who also live within a commutable distance breeds a happier and more content squad.
Long may it last, UTM and a mariner til I'm 6' under👍

Dare I say it, the board also have to sanction all this so fair play to them  


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

If you're Waterfall, you're not likely to move from League 1 to League 2 for anything less, are you?

Can you see us making anymore signings before the window closes in a few weeks?

Am thinking just maybe a young midfielder on loan who has a creative side to them looking to prove there self and work hard to break into the team, basically like another embo.

Apart from that am happy with that going into next year providing no injuries within the next few weeks. Gives us good depth l.

2 year contracts are only impressive if the signing is a good one, they are a risk.
If Welsh hadn't booted some woman (the toe rag) thus allowing the club to kick him out would we be thinking how great it was to still have him signed up as probably the highest paid player at the club for another season? No, that 2 year contract was a big mistake, jolley and the club got lucky there.
This seems a decent signing and worth the 2 year deal but only time will tell.
