Ridiculous decision- we haven't had a defender to put on the bench last 2 games !

We can't afford Raglan and Anderson who we've signed for the season - not a surprise when you consider Seb will be back whether in the squad or not.

God I hate this league.

A Staglet I know suggests their small band of followers' excitement at Radford somehow 'going for it' may be premature.

Apparently it's simply a case of four out, four in thus far.

For what it's worth former Town loanee Gobern is one of those leaving Field Mill having failed to make any kind of impact.

We have Maguire in any event, a better prospect than, and currently equal to (in my view) Raglan. Plus we receive a small bonus from the EFL futures scheme whenever he starts for us.

I've never rated Jake Kean much but surely he's better than Fulton....?

These go to eleven.

Any players coming in will be of good League 2 standard.

That's good as it means anyone coming in will be much better than what we currently have, with the exceptions of Hird and Lee, possibly Nolan and Dennis.

These go to eleven.

Hardly a surprise with Evans in charge...he's like a kid playing football manager at times with signings. He'll be distraught at the lack of emergency loans now!

Evans for Sharpe - from what I've seen that would be madness on the part of the Blunt ones

Lol, that Billy Sharp swap comment is one of the best bits of trolling I've ever seen on bobs board. How anyone could seriously think that United's captain, leading goalscorer and die hard club supporter would swap Bramall lane for the proact is beyond me. And just as incredulous is the idea that the United hierarchy would want rid of him for a striker who's hardly been banging the goals in for fun.

If you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything!
