Quoted from Lincspoacher
Our playing budget for this season (both capital for fees and revenue for playing budget) is completly gone.

Hurst has nothing left and we only have loans available if parent club pay wages. So we are looking at L1 / Champs sides loaning young players again like last year.

I can say with 100% certainty this is the case &
recent unfoseen costs re roof and stands not helped but not the cause.

Jason, Andrew & Debbie running it like a
business & its spent re transfer kitty & wage bill as a % of revenue at the limit.

Squad is ok tho, so UTM 👊


Hurst likes a squad filler loan or two, usually as a wide man or forward so I expect that is what we'll see. Also expect that if the conditions we are working under (parent club meets 100% or 90%+ at least of wages) are what you say, so we're in the bargain bucket, then these players will be the same level as usual too I.e. not quite good enough like pepple/symonds/oneill/revan etc. But you never know.

I believe the money from the cup run has been spread over three years, so Conteh's wages for instance has been covered for the whole of his contract.

Good job we got that million pounds from the cup run then which we were told was going entirely into the playing budget or we would only be fielding half a team this season

Don't think Conteh will be here all his contract .I think town could end up selling him ,mullarkey and couple of others for decent money next year or the one after

Quoted from Poojah
No chance Armstrong will be coming here. George Lloyd didn’t make the Cheltenham squad yesterday; he would seem a more realistic target and while not quite a like-for-like comparison did play that number 9 role well last season.


Lloyd is injured. Out for about a month.

Or a slightly smaller squad, a few loans and a touch less quality

Hurst loves a loan or two at the end of a transfer window, don't expect this month to be any different.

Other clubs have yet to decide who is in there plans and who isn't.  That trickles down from the very top, eventually reaching us with players becoming available.

I thought Gnahoua looked what he is, a player who hasn't really had a pre-season and only trained with his new team-mates for the last week.

Was moments when he got on the ball where he looked set to do something but was just a bit rusty.  Morecambe fans seemed quite complimentary and Hurst clearly knows what he'll be getting from him.  I think it's a decent signing to be honest.

Like Rodgers ,Rose,Pyke and Mularkey a good number of Morecambe fans wanted him to stay and rated him .

That will do me ,Iv imagine he will challenge Vernam on the left when he's up to speed - looks a very good player going off the highlights of Morecambe .
