    Wrexham's army of players from the leagues above didn't get them promoted.
    As a general rule, I’d always rather see players signed who’ve been successful at a lower level, rather than dropping down from a higher league. Excellent business so far this summer. I think the owners are showing intent that they want a crack at the title this year.

    Quote “Defenders like Geraldo and Aden may not be your stereotypical ‘giants’ compared to some of the other centre backs you see, but they have more than enough physicality, dynamism, desire and know-how to go pound-for-pound with anyone, while also giving us tremendous composure and quality in our build-up phase.

    I just hope they are big enough. And we still need some height up front.

    Are we getting to the limits of our squad size now. I'm sure someone on here knows.

    I think these signings are really positive, players who have shone in a league lower and eager to prove themselves in a higher league. I for one can't wait for the new season to start!

    Signing the best/better players from the the teams that finished 4th and 1st in the league below is pleasing. As is signing club captains, league top scorers, league player of the season, all at a good age and point in their career. They should all be hungry to either reach the EFL or return to it.

    Add in the fact that 4 come in pairs and know each other, some commanded a fee it's been a very pleasing week. They all get a full pre season at their new club to integrate into the new surroundings and build up important relationships with the rest of the squad as they get to know each others games.

    Didn't expect more incomings so soon, let alone impressive ones on paper. Hard to find a reason to moan. This is what the close and pre season are all about#PVO

    I liked the hopefully jokey comment by one of their fans, who said, "I wonder if Sammy had his Achilles operation before he left us???
    On the issue of whether we have enough height at the back, as I said about hold up players, height is no guarantee that you can get off the ground, let's hope in Bajrami and Baldwin we have two 6ft spring heeled centre backs. Plenty big enough if so, also lets hope Adebayo-Rowling at 5ft 11.5 inch is good in the air
    Something Richardson was not..

    We've had, (several), 6ft 4ins players who could only jump 4ft 6ins and we had DKE at 4ft 6ins who could jump 6ft 4ins. You couldn't make it up.

    Happy with these signings, snapping up the better players from the league below is positive for me. Players with character and maybe something to prove, also like that we are getting business done fairly early. Couple more and a couple out wouldn’t be surprised if that was it.
