Incoming.

So first one in is Josh March. 28, a striker. So-so tally in recent years and a couple of injuries. Was given a contract by Stevenage in March 23. He was then signed by Harrogate in September of the same year. So was it a short contract or....
Anyway, he seems to fit the bill of not outstanding but possibly generally fit as per another post.
Views?

I don’t think we would have had much competition for his signature, the signing of a club without a pot to piss in, desperate. More signings like this and we we will be favourites to follow Carlisle Utd.

What a wonderful, positive outlook on a player we haven't seen yet. As I have said elsewhere, why anyone would want to sign for us is beyond me. For the record, we have a record of taking players in and regardless of age and previous "form" and improving them. Let's give the guy a chance before condemning him.

Going by the clips of his goals, he can make his own chances. He doesn't seem to score tap-ins.
The most important thing is he appears to be mobile and with a little pace. Thing is, the team will have to be set up to make the most of him.
Of course, one of the goals was against us.

Death and taxes.

Death and taxes.

Yes Death and Taxes we can depend on, getting the right player is not so certain, but I think this is a good signing for us, he did well for Harrogate, he can score goals and he is a handful for defenders and can create goals for others, I can understand why LB wanted to get him signed up. We needed a couple of forwards and this is a good start.

I know that, it was just a way into the conversation, next time I will be more careful.

[gazan]

Any gossip anyone?

[gazan]

I mean, 1 signing and 2 signings of new contracts isn't really enough to get the heart racing is it. I am also aware that the media people at CAFC set a low priority on the OS. Therefore, more 'news' appears on socials, I assume (which of course I don't read)

So Hodkin signs. Another out of the way. Only 4 to determine now. Interestingly they have only offered Hodkin a 1 year contract with no further options. He scored 35 goals last season but that doesn't seem to count. I realise that some will point out that scoring at youth level is different from senior level and that Riley and the son of the Welsh international (his name has slipped from my mind!!!) scored a lot but couldn't translate that at senior level, but others have been offered options.
I take it we won't see much of him this year anyway and he'll be on loan most of the time (hopefully at a higher level than Hanley Town!)

I usually get fed tit bits of info. from in house at Reaseheath at this time of year. Nothing has come my way so far. Either nothing is happening or they have tightened up a lot on staff leaking sensitive business goings on. We'll wait and see.

Thanks! Strangely enough, his name came into my mind 2 minutes ago!

Where did all the rumours about Afford come from? Why would he move back here? I think we were all disappointed when he moved to MKD instead of upwards. According to Opta his defensive stats were very good and I believe his wages are way above what he was getting here. Can't see why he wants to return. There must be better alternatives for him.
