...is nothing short of very impressive....long term contracts to key players, tough centre half, skillful goal scoring playmaker & a striker who catches the fans interest!

Cook certainly has a good eye for a player and it would appear he has a good range of contacts within the game too. To be honest that doesn’t surprise me as he has a likeable personality and that tends to go a long way in building good relationships.

If only....

As much as i'm happy we've signed a striker....there is that little niggle that its a gamble and our last two signings have the same agent. Hopefully its all misplaced fears but we need to see them both on the pitch and see what happens.

Could be an interesting battle between him and fellow bean pole Claude Davis who has just signed for them.

What I admire about Cook and his transfer policy is that he is getting a good balance in the squad. Cooper and O’Shea could both play at a higher level and will no doubt be at the upper end of our playing budget. The 2 new lads will most likely be at the opposite end of the spectrum and given that they are both on short term deals they are gambles worth taking IMO.

I see the new Striker as the 'plan B' in case our preferred XI aren't getting the job done. A young Striker with the required physical attributes who is eager to impress.

I assumed Cooper would be on a comparatively little wage given he's a young lad, was way down the pecking order at Hull and only played 22 first team games, including loans, before coming to us this year. What makes you think he's on a big wedge?

I don't know for certain, but based on the other opportunities he had available to him at the time of his signature, I'd be inclined to think he's on decent wedge and deservedly so.

Sgn Townsend and then the squad should be complete until the end of season,then add a few more and get rid of the deadwood and we should be in the play-offs headng towards the Championship.

Cooper is on very good money. It's been suggested to me that Richards, Lee and Cooper will be three of the best paid players in League Two, possibly the best paid three!

it is frequently said in football that to be successful the spine of your side has to be strong, So, it makes perfect sense to have the three highest players down the middle.
