One possibly for the future
One looking for a home
Alan said hopefully 2 more announced soon so hopefully a striker and centre half
If we lose Grant the remainder of the season will be interesting with Luton Cov Stags Lincoln and maybe Exeter Accy and the usual late runner all looking to make the top three or seven.
Personally I don’t think Grant staying or going will make the 2nd half of our season any less interesting. We have a cushion that allows for the inevitable blip (hopefully we have had it when we drew several games recently) so I am not overly concerned.
Grants goals have helped but his all round performances have been inconsistent and plenty of other players have performed better without getting any glory.
That said I would obviously want us to keep a player that has lots of ability and even when not playing well can pop up with a decisive goal. After all Grant is the only player in black and white this season who could pass the 20 goal threshold.
As for January transfers, we could definitely do with a minimum of a new forward, a centre half is not as important IMO, obviously a couple of injuries would change my thoughts.
He was asked on twitter this morning how many more signings and replied "Only one if we get our man! Will know Tuesday"Quote:

That would definitely leave us short, not in terms of overall squad numbers, but for balance. We need a proper alternative to Shola as a centre-forward, and a good quality centre half who can genuinely challenge Brisley and Duffy for their places. Otherwise, long-term injuries to any of these three players would be disruptive.Quote:

Again, this is an ambiguous Tweet. He wasn't asked if there would be any more signings, just if there was any more signing news.Quote:

Trouble is people take these things at face value and a face value it says one more signing, possibly.Quote:
