Quoted from Roast Em Bobby


He's defintely had one bad injury not sure about two. A few of the players signed seem to fit the bill of promising young player who broke through at a higher level, got injured and then covid prevented a come back and then they were out of contract. A pretty good strategy from Hursty I think, so long as they're not serial crocks


I think any team with ambition needs to take a gamble of some description. Whether that is one or two players with pedigree but doubts over their fitness or pushing the boat out on a player or 2. If they work, you probably go up.

Being in non-league as we are, we have to take gambles. If we want quality, it probably comes with injury risks. If we want players who never get injured, they probably have limits on their ability.  

We’re unlikely to get the full package, so to speak. As we always say, if there’s nothing wrong with them, they wouldn’t be signing at this level.
