Let's get Messi in then.

Darikwa will easily get a contract at a decent League One club on far more money than we should be paying.

It seems the Bobs Board version of the recruitment room has a periscope, which can only see as targets, players that played for us in the last 10 years..

This is a very tough league, all of the rest of the top 7 beat us last year...

I can see us struggling to win it even with some great recruitment, but if anyone can PC, Robbo and Danny can

So, in conclusion.
We will struggle to win the championship because we couldn't get a league double over any of the top seven last season, even with good signings that could strengthen our position. The fact that we finished the closest to the two teams that run away with the league means nothing at all but if we are going to win it then we're gonna need PC, DW and GR........which we had last season anyway. Does that sound about right?

Life goes on. Whatever happens.

I saw him play a couple of times for Alfreton last season, looked a class above that level at times, but pretty raw. Definitely a player in there and not suprised he has admirers in the FL

Google has him as a midfield player. Is he a Mandeville or a Jones?

Get it on, bang the gong , get it on

Some reports have him as a striker, one of Alfreton’s leading scorers in the 21/22 season. More have him as a midfielder this season, presumably an attacking rather than a defensive one

He alternated between the wing and a number 10 role when I watched them.

Should an average of 2 pts a game be a realistic minimum target (92 pts)?

If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything.

Still no guarantee, 92 points would only have bettered the 2nd placed side in 7 of the last 12 seasons (and 2 of those were shorter seasons due to Covid)

Whatever happens, if we want to win the league it takes a monumental, record breaking effort (as it does with most teams who win the NL)
