I'd like to see Jodi Jones here, although will attract a decent fee as under contract until 2027.

I wonder who Graham Alexander was watching when he was at the wombles v county second leg, wouldn't surprise me if it was Jones.

Hasn’t looked fit all year and a dicey injury record.

Sparkes, Metcalfe, Pepple & Markanday all on perms. A top keeper, RB, CB to play alongside Fadz, and a Sami Morsy style CM commander… if Carlsberg did transfer markets.

I think PC and the Kirk’s will be ruthless with the old guard and look to build a L1 squad this summer. Very excited to see what happens over the coming months.

I'd like to think we can sign someone better than Pepple, who's ok

Just a thought, though, MacFadzean turned us down last summer!!!

However, I think we should be looking for better if we truly need a new No1.

Personally, I do not think GK is our most pressing of requirements. Top of my list is a RB, 2 CBs, DCM, CF.


And has said he regrets doing it.

I like Pepple, but he's got a lot to learn. If we could get him for free, he's a player we could improve and eventually sell on.

Think the majority on here would pay to see you hit by both...... there's a charity challenge.

Tbf that’d raise more than my Play offs or not fund raiser.


I think Sparkes, Markanday and Metcalfe will sign and the CB from Canada. Not Pepple.

You think Sparkes, Markandy and Metcalfe will sign? I’ll have some of that! Sadly don’t think we’d get all three

Not quick enough for this level. Friday night proved that. A few times he was played in or rolled the defender only to have insufficient pace to get away. He’s a trier but we need better.

People is a battering ram and I’m not sure he will ever develop the subtlety to become anything more than a journeyman. I think there are better young strikers out there, the difficulty is in finding them before someone else does.

Any rumours or gossip anyone?

I reckon we might see our first big signing in the next fortnight and I reckon it will be a big statement of intent, just like Will Grigg two years ago.

7 in 20 isn't a bad return for a young striker.

Pepple has been fine. He’s certainly tried his best. I personally think there is a lot to work with in him but he doesn’t strike me as someone who will ever be prolific. Cheap and on a free I would take him as backup and one to develop. We would still need another better forward to go with Grigg.

I’d deffo take Pepple. Obviously lots more work to do with him but the raw ingredients are there. Strong as an ox.

Definitely. He’s got all the attributes but needs time to put them all together. I think Luton will have plans for him around their first team squad next year

Only if they're looking for back-to-back-to-back relegations. The lad's a trier, but we need better - even as back up - if we're to threaten the automatic spots next time around.

Pepple wouldn’t be a bad one to take on. Needs refining but that’s what cook does. Caused them issues on friday night.

I can’t see cook getting rid of loads leaving him having to sign a load of plays to replace them, massive overhaul of players doenst seem the Cook way to me.

I think he’ll end up here.
