Would prefer Alfie May who was head and shoulders quality wise above the rest of the Cheltenham team…. He looked like he said his good byes today….maybe heading to the championship Alfie May isn't even the best striker on Cheltenham books. |

Scored 20 last season which is 14 more than his co-striker so a bit of a silly comment really. |

Woops Chesterfield. Well both begin with Che!!! But Kabo a much more potent striker.
Alfie has all the attributes of Ajose. Barely troubled keeper's prior to last two seasons.

Already snapped up by Posh. Agreed,this is the sort of signing we should've been looking at. Too logical for TS....go for a free ex player instead FFS! |

Benzema’s a Charlton fan - has he timed his departure to coincide with the takeover and be our first signing?

Not sure of his contract situation now. Ahh right you are,I didn't realise he had joined on loan with an obligation to buy this summer. Seems strange on Chesterfield's part,if you want the player which Posh clearly did,why not make them pay upfront? |

The way deals are financed these days a loan fee might just be first installment of a transfer fee. I don't think he's been that successful (0 league goals and 0 starts - 8 sub apps) implies if deal is going ahead Peterborough have paid something substantial up front. if they hadn't paid anything for him they'd just return him and say no thanks |

Do people think the first recruit of the new era will be a striker? Will today's developments help us land May? |

Does anyone know why clubs are signing players already? Rob Dickie just signed for Bristol City for a fee. Cracking player. But back to my point.. thought the window opened on the 14th June?!

They don’t officially sign till 14th June they agreed to sign . Yep... they can sign a contract but cannot transfer their registration until the window opens... unless a free agent. All top targets will want to resolve their futures soon and then piss off on holiday before pre-season starts. |

Storrie said: “From day one of this process, Thomas looking to bring a new owner into the club, what we did agree from day one, from everybody who was in the discussions at that time, was a budget for next season – which included increasing the players’ payroll within the club and the targets and type of squad Dean wanted to put forward for next season. That has not changed through any of these discussions, through anyone. “The budget that has already been approved by all parties, you have a top-class manager in Dean Holden who I think will do so well in taking the club forward. “The budget is there. It won’t change, as far as I understand, it has been approved by everybody. We know our targets and we’ve been working on them and hopefully in the course of the next week or two you will see some faces coming through. Bear in mind the transfer window doesn’t open until June 14. And obviously all the out of contract players are not (free agents) until the end of June." “Although we’re in discussions a lot of things will happen in the next few weeks.” www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p0fncfjt |

I would like to see us be bold during the window and bring in a bit of quality on loan, players like Krystian Bielik again and striker Jay Stansfield. Scott Banks is another one and then look at tthe likes of Sam Hoskins and Owen Moxon on permanent deals.

Were we not close to getting him on loan in Jan but the Blackburn manager shut it down due to injuries in his squad…. Might be wrong though |

Might be wrong though I understand we are want to make Steven Sessegnon a permanent move , he undergoing surgery on his knee during the summer which hopefully will solve the concerns about is fitness |

Not a rumour but I watched the L2 play-off fist legt earlier between Bradford and Carlisle. Bradford won 1-0 amd have a player on loan called Scott Banks. Given the success of Jesrun last season, Banks would thrive in our side. He's a very good young player. Carlisle had Owen Moxon who must be one of the best crossers of a ball in the whole EFL. Pin point accuracy and a good palyer too. I think we#'ll see a few young dynamic players come in with a hunger and an energy that we haven't ween for some time. Nice to see another admirer of Owen Moxon! Him or Callum Guy from Carlisle id love in our midfield next season. Both are more box to box and defensively sound, something Morgan never was. My current wish list Sam Smith - Cambridge - Free Transfer Alfie May - Cheltenham - Fee (Unlikely, hot property) Jay Stansfield - Fulham - Loan (May go Championship) Owen Moxon - Carlisle - Fee (Budget dependant) Elliot Watt - Salford - Free Transfer Steven Sess - Free Transfer (Still not sure on his fitness levels but would be nice for squad depth) Josh Key - Exeter - Free transfer (May go Championship) Thought I'd add to my list of realistic players I think we should target: No Dack talk here! Callum Elder - Hull - Free Transfer (Finally gives us an out and out & proven left back) Harlee Dean - Birmingham - Free Transfer - (I expect competition for Hector so an ideal replacement) Tyler Walker - Coventry - Free Transfer - (Proven at this level, electric for Lincoln back in 19/20) |

Scott Banks is another one and then look at tgr likes of Sam Hoskins and Owen Moxon on permanent deals. Sam Hoskins is an interesting one,could or would Northampton part with him? Glad to hear we've actually bid for Alfie May,hopefully not a derisory low ball offer,but one with intent. Sam Smith would be the way to go if we get priced out of May,younger and on a free. Hopefully exciting times ahead on all fronts including recruitment. |

I used to watch Brentford when Harlee Dean was a slower version of Carl Tiler. No. Alfie May. No.
Palace guy, Banks. Yes. Moxon. Yes. But we need younger guys on the up rather than mediocre players at our, or a lower level. Bielik, if only. Also need to sign Kone, Casey and Labeqereta.
Strikers are the key. If we go 4-3-3 all need to be quick. If we go 2 up top, assuming Miles is here, his partner needs to be able to hold the ball up.
Tyler Walker, Kabo Tsimanga or both. Agyei could be decent also. We need to look in Roland's territory of minor North European leagues. Brentford not done bad there.
Sam's Hoskins and Smith, one in four at best for a lower level. Please!!!
Get real.
Can see Mitchell alongside Dobbo to free Fraser forwards and see if he is worth paying him almost 50% more than last year's contracted strikers.

Hoskins is more of an attacking midfielder and a regular goalscorer. Don't think you are that well equipped to write of players given that you thought the Chesterfoeld lad played for Cheltenham and you don't rate Alfie May. 😄 |

I reckon Alfie May, would work great alongside Miles Leaburn.

Can see Mitchell alongside Dobbo to free Fraser forwards and see if he is worth paying him almost 50% more than last year's contracted strikers. Some valid points there Vaangard but I will have to disagree ie Sam Smith. He is among one of the best forwards in the league that we could attract. He is versatile for a start, a left footed player who can play on the right or as a No9. Giving us good cover should we need it. He is still only 25 so not even hit his prime yet. He has hit double figures in his last two seasons. Specifically this season in a underwhelming Cambridge team! He is a real poacher and a bag of energy, a perfect match up for Leaburn in my opinion. Just take a look at the kind of goals he has scored over the last two years will tell you this! Don't be fooled by the Cambridge tag..! Exciting summer ahead! |
