My input is that I heard Paul Stretford took Madeline McCann and holds her in a basement in Salford with the rotting remains of Shergar. …… and has Lord Lucan as his aging butler.

There must be plenty out there and I’d rather have a young guy who’s full of confidence having scored a hatful of goals than a journeyman on the way down who might spend a lot of time on the treatment table. Kabongo Tshimanga - scored for fun in National League for Chesterfield last year. Scored v Chelsea in the FA cup I think.

There are some really promising non-league players out there (I watch a lot of local football!): Kabongo Tshimanga from Chesterfield being the stand-out goalscorer (assuming he can re-capture his pre-injury form). Jake Eggleton (RB/CB) at Coalville Town is promising... very quick for a defender! Bailey Hobson at Alfreton Town (AM/CF) is someone I can see playing in the EFL in the not-too-distant future. I would have suggested Harry Boyes on loan from Sheff Utd too (he looked a class above playing for Solihull at LB last season), but I see he's already gone to Forest Green. Also from Solihull, their GK, Ryan Boot, had a great game the last time I saw them. ariotofmyown 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caerphilly Ram Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 1 hour ago, Arsene Titman said: Yes, I listened to it. He was later corrected by Darren Robinson who said that actual number of players available when their contracts expire on Thursday is around 450 ( at all league levels) as 250 or so have already been snapped up or have a deal in place. DR is the expert in this field so I would take his figure. He also gave a number of players at league 1 level who would become available but I can’t remember what it was. Yep, naively I posted before I’d finished the whole episode ??♂️ Think Robinson said around 170 free agents at Championship/league one. There’s definitely a pool of players to choose from at this level and above. Plus there’s league 2, national league and prem academy cast offs. Once the takeover is done I’m excited to see a squad come together with pretty much a clean slate and opportunity to deliver positive results for the fans. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ariotofmyown Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 Do we know who is responsible for bringing in Festy/Plange/Ebiowei last year? I hope it wasn't Rooney and whoever it was is still here. Was last season our best ever for recruitment? Spent nothing and brought it some great kids and quality experienced pros. CornwallRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted June 28, 2022 Share Posted June 28, 2022 14 hours ago, Gee SCREAMER !! said: Just like all the dealings with Morris every fan clearly knew he was paying these wages and are culpable and we must be punished. We really must have a points deduction or double relegation. Boooo. take points of them, cheats booooo. Well, Derby fans have a history of being happy to have rule breakers associated with their club after all. These are the people who worshipped Morris (ha ha, EFL on strings style) and thought Kirchner, a transparently iffy character, was their saviour. Plus there was talk of Stretford being on the Board. No conflict of interest there then. I assume Quantuma were just desperate for the money so didn't think twice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
