We can sign free agents whenever though.


As good an idea as that is, it more than likely wouldn't be a quick fix if we needed someone in a hurry, due to the fitness levels of the free agent. I doubt there are many free agents who are keeping their fitness levels high enough to go straight into the starting XI of any league team. Look how long it has taken for our full time professionals to get their fitness up to a suitable standard.

If Windsor scores a few more in the next few games, and Jackson Jnr can put the ball in the net in reserve games, Sisay makes agood account of  himself at Clee Town, and Edwards can add to his tally, then still having Hanson and Green and a couple of others loitering in the background, do we really need another striker? If Ollie plays 3 up front like on Tuesday then yes, having that many on standby is worth it, but if he only plays 1 or 2 up front then having multiples on the side line cant be good for the players,

Keeping hold of Pollock or getting silly money for him would be my transfer window wish.

I can't see us getting silly money. Only the premier league clubs would spend that, and I'd expect he's too slow for them to be really interested. Championship clubs might have taken a gamble, but their financial situation probably rules out a gamble on a young lad.

Ollie said at the recent GTFC golf day that Leicester were very keen on young Pollock, but he was happy to stay and develop with us.
