Mike Hickman & John Dunclffe spring to mind from Brighton, but that was a few years ago! 😂😂😂
Of course, forgot about them...

More seriously though, the SE is stacked with tinpot clubs that we now can't compete with thanks to what has happened over the last 20 years. How much more dosh would Kabongo Tshimanga want to play for Grimsby rather than Stevenage. If he's that good wouldn't Cambridge take a punt on him, what about Wimbledon? We need to find the next Liam Hearn.

EVERY player that has scored 4 or more goals this season is a possible option compared to the hotshots we had this season.

Having delved into lower leagues last year and signed 2 of the most prolific goalscorers, look where that got us. Both scored not even a handful of goals and played in next to no games.

I reckon this coming season Hurst will pick up an out of contract league forward who will be lured by the atmosphere of the New Grimsby Town


There's lower league and then there is where they came from, which was steps 3 and 4, or level 7 and 8. They weren't up for that big a jump to League 2.

Just realised what I was saying about the SE above also applies to Lancashire - Fleetwood, Morecambe and Accrington Stanley although at least the latter have a long history...

Hopefully Hurst can find some sort of Bogle type player from the non-league, if a league club comes in for him then I doubt we have no chance anyway, with no disrepect even if it's the likes of Barrow or Harrogate, just for being in League Two.  Then again when we signed Amond, it was kinda a bolt out the blue and look how that turned out. Looking forward to the transfer window.

I'm always one for positivity, I wouldn't be surprised at all if Jackson Jr scores a lot more goals now we've dropped down a division, he might even shine, fingers crossed.

I agree about Jackson Jr, I think he is going to turn out to be the goal scorer we all crave for, especially in the National League.

Shouldn't we look in the midlands and north first - not had great success with recent signings based feckin miles away - south east and south west. In fact, when was the last time we signed a player from miles away down south on a permanent deal that was any good and stayed with us for more than a season? Only Hendrie immediately springs to mind and he's from Leeds and played all his football up north until Shrews.

If he was so good why didn't we bother offering him a new deal? Oh...

Would be interesting to see what the wage difference was between Danny Rose and Hessenthaler, I can't imagine there would be much in it.

I think people could be getting a little too optimistic about Jackson Jr...If Hurst was of the opinion that he's good enough to fire us to promotion from the NL, then he would've given him more game time in our LG2 scrap.

He's scored a few tap ins (which is a quality in itself, of course), but his all round play has flattered to deceive, especially when he's started.

Aside from being good goal scorers, Bogle and Amond were/are bloody good players too.

Trying not to be too negative, i sincerely hope he comes good, but as yet i'm not convinced, going from what i've seen so far. But would love to be proved wrong, and i love his attitude!
