    Interesting to see us go in for Clark , would of been a very good addition from what i've seen of him in the Cup games and a few brief league appearances.
    With that in mind does that then mean we are after another midfielder (Creative?) as well as a Striker. 
    Think it will be an interesting night with a few surprises on the way.

    I think it is a new name, medical pencilled in today. Defiantly NOT Lee Gregory though

    Sorry mate I would disagree here.
    Forsyth was our only left back on the books in the summer. He signed a one year deal and most agreed he would have been a good squad player to have. We then signed Elder, who pretty much we all agreed on that it was a really good signing. 28 years old, won league one previously, had 10 assists from left back. Unfortunately for him he was injured in pre season and missed most of it. Missing pre season is massive for any player as they are playing catch up.
    How do we know that he wouldn't get infront of Forsyth of he'd been fit and firing all season? We don't. He's clearly plenty good enough.
    His other signings.
    Wilson - Has potential to be really good. 
    Bradley - Everyone was absolutely buzzing when we signed him. Didn't start great. Made a couple of mistakes (which is all you need to do in our fans cases before we write someone off) and he's unfortunate that Cashin and Nelson have been so good. We probably signed him expecting Cashin to go.
    Fornah - Definitely has potential. Still young. Hardly any experience. But there's definitely a player in there. Sometimes to laid back but he'll learn.
    Washington - A player Warne trusts. Just starting to see glimpses (the go against Northampton) of what he could do at this level, getting up to speed. Then he's injured on international duty.
    Ward - Obviously with 352 in mind. But now he just looks like he's surplus to requirements. I might be wrong. But I just don't see him getting a game or even on the bench soon.
    Waghorn - Steady played. No world beater. Cheap, convenient and will still contribute when he's back fit.
    Nyambe - Brilliant signing. Really good defender. 
    Vickers - A keeper. Not really don't anything wrong.
    TJJ - Massive risk we felt we could take. Obviously looked at his ability and thought we couldn't get much better if we can get him fit. It's not worked out. 
    Embleton - Can barely judge this. He did his thigh taking a corner in training.
    Some signings don't work out as you hope. It's the way it goes. 
    But we don't seem to give anyone a chance before we want them gone or say they are s****. I've seen some having a go at CBT already after playing 80 minutes of football for us.
    I've just seen Brighton are letting Dahoud go. A midfielder they signed from Dortmund in the summer. Clearly not worked out it happens.
    We're a league one club, with hardly any money, working to restrictions. We can only do what we can do.

    BLB got a reaction from Eoghan1884 in v Blackpool (H) Match Thread   
    It wouldn’t surprise me if a few left after those comments tonight and that may well be Warne. It’s extremely harsh on Max as apart from Ward been our most creative player throughout pre season and the first 2 competitive games. If the other is Cashin then I wouldn’t be disheartened if he went, he isn’t yet good enough for me especially in a back 3. He makes the odd good slide tackle and the odd cross field pass but for me if his head is turning I would cash in while we can. It’s clear emotion and pressure has got to Warne tonight which I personally never thought that would happen with how he comes across. The only positive about this is that we are only 2 games in to the season and we still have 3 weeks of the marker left to bolster the squad. Clowes only gave LR a handful of games and we was 6/7th then. The next few weeks will be very interesting and could some what picture what this season is going to bring.   

    For all we know this has been smoothed over in the dressing room after the interview who knows. But we need to strengthen and strengthen fast before we end up like a Charlton and Pompey which have become before this season stale league 1 clubs.

    Would say ITK haha. Blackpool offered more money and didn’t train today. This has come from a youth player at the club.

    Derby beat Huddersfield 4-2 on Tuesday. This has come from somebody who is lodging Darren Robinson. Unsure about scorers & players but a great result against another Championship side.

    Just seen that Jay Stanfield's move to Reading has been put on hold for obvious reasons. Could be one to nip in and try to steal from under there noses. 
    9 Goals & 7 Assists last season in a average Exeter team. Would be worth a punt
