Help
Just to relieve boredom, I’m wondering whether this guy has registered on anybody’s ‘he’s a good un’ register?
Aldershot striker and Captain. Swiss U19 international who was snapped up by Brighton but did nowt. Now a ‘1 in 2’ man. 22 years old and OOC in June. From YouTube, he looks like a sturdy left footed skill full chap not blessed with lightning pace. I’ll be interested to see where he ends up.

Portsmouth and Wimbledon are two of the teams interested apparently.

Wimbledon got a few quid to spend as well after selling a striker to Ipswich for £1m+ yesterday.
Big expenditure looming as they look to expand stadium , a million ain’t going to go far especially in London.
God I hate this league.

Ground holds 9500ish and they average 7300ish....are they going to rush to expand especially when they are due to make some repayments from the original build next year?

Planning permission was granted to go to 20,000 when it was initially built but as far as i can tell there are no imminent plans to make it any bigger from its current capacity.

I don’t expect lots of signings this summer, but there are players such as Tolaj, and ones at Altrincham, Bromley, Barnet and Halifax that I’d like to see Mr Cook taking a decent look at.
Hopefully the return to the EFL sees us use this league as a decent recruiting platform for promising talent. The days of Ebanks-Blake and O’Grady are long behind us thankfully.

Who knows what offers players might receive, but I fully expect impact signings maybe goal keeper.

There’s a couple of players at Halifax, Alli and Stott, that I wouldn’t mind here for starters.
I’d like to see Boot given a chance next season, as he’s not done anything wrong once called upon, but agree we need another keeper be it backup or not.

To be fair to him, they’ve picked up recently with 2 very good away wins at Bristol rover and Barnsley meaning they’re now up to 14th.
Wouldn’t take for them to be dragged back down in to the relegation fight, though.

Planning permission expires after 3 years so if they did have plans, they would need to apply for fresh planning permission.

Planning permissions only expire after 3 years if a lawful start on the development is not made. The planning permission to increase capacity to 20k might have been part of the original permission in which case it might still be “live”.

Must be a slow news day, we've now got a thread about a player, we've very little to no chance of signing..
all we are saying, is give us ...a goal, or 2+
