I don't think we will either now that Naylor used us as a bargaining tool.
We won't be signing wow players. Just not how he operates and in fairness it's got us nowhere the last few years.

Danny Johnson is a wow player. Pretty much scored 1 goal ever 2 games (give or take)for 4 years and scored 20 or so just last season in this league. We signed another player as a target man who spent 4 years in the league above and throughout his career has averaged 1 in 3-4 games.
Although we missed out on Naylor at the last minute that would have been a wow signing.

A guy that potted 20 goals in this league last season not wow enough for you. We could always sign Maynard yet again if you want.

I think they are but all sensible signings, there's no big names that everyone in the league will be aware of on mega bucks.

Our targets are still in the European Championships Take it you dont know how good Hawkins is
bear 73 wrote:Well thats 8 new players Bishop, Charles, Hewitt, Menayese, Ward, Quinn, Hawkins, Johnson, maybe just a few tweaks left.
2 new strikers, Midfield sorted,, Defence will Menayese fight for a place, or maybe someone new might come in, Goalkeeper sorted, just need a number 2.
Stech still with us, so we still have a few tweaks to make, but the majority of the squad sorted

Menayese has been our player for more than a year. He was given a two year contract and spent a good portion of last year on loan at Grimsby. He is not a new player and has merely returned to the club following his loan period. He is available for loan or transfer for the upcoming season.

I think Clarke is more than capable of covering right back. Clearly a GK, another defender CH /LB. Not sure we will see another forward although I agree jury is out on Reid.
Maybe we need to see some outgoing before more incoming

Johnson is quite sharp.
Not sure we will be looking for pace given the way we play.

Also I can't see Clough signing Hewitt, a right back, to play 2nd fiddle to a winger at right back.
Clough likes 3 keepers and if he can move Stech on then we would see a replacement come in.
I'm very happy with the attacking options we currently have. Same with midfield. I'd like to see a CB or left back come in. We have 3 right backs in Perch, Hewitt and Clarke, Gordon is a decent option as a backup. Don't need more in my opinion. Left back is a question mark for me. I can't see McLaughlin playing an entire season at left back. Charles is largely untested and that's it.
