📝 Nick Tsaroulla Signs

[matt_magpie]

There’s an argument for JJ to play as a No 10 and also on the right cutting in, he played there most before signing for us and most memorably when he ripped us apart playing on the right and got his hatrick.

[Jampie]

Wikipedia says he's a wing back. Not a winger, not a full back, a wing back. That's good news!

Also, he's 25 but he was out of action for over a year after a car crash at 18. So firstly, glad he's made a full recovery, and secondly, he seems to be still on an upward trajectory and he might peak in a year or two rather than being in his prime now.

So, great signing all up.

Another fantastic signing, I don't think anyone is leaving who we want to stay and we're building a great squad. I like Chicksen but he's not a starter at LWB for a team wanting to win the league. SM likes Jones on the right as well.

I'm very excited about next season and that's due to the transfers done already, well done everyone at the club.

I’m sure there will be some (you know who you are ) who will say this is a cynical move to sell more season tickets.

[Jampie]

I don't want to get too optimistic here, but with the squad we have on paper right now, we really should be aiming for one of the auto promotion spots, which is kind of incredible after a only a year in this league.

The big wild card of course is Stuart Maynard. So far he... his stats remain kinda terrible, and the only reason I have to be optimistic about him is that the brothers' other two manager signings have ended well. Both reliably got us into playoffs and both were poached by higher leagues. So they're definitely better judges of managers than I am so far!

Happy with this signing, for me now just offload Rawlinson, Randall and 1 excess keeper bring in 1 more CB and 2 midfielders and job done

If Matty Palmer takes time to come back ,Dan Crowley can play that role,i am still not ruling out Didsy next season ,some will,but i think he could still be a factor

He seemed to be more a squad player at Crawley

I thought that looking at Wikipedia but they haven't listed all his games.

This is what Crawley have to say: 'Tsaroulla made 49 appearances during the 2023/24 season'

I think the club were fairly clear about Rawlo, Randall and Stone being available to leave. Other than cancelling contracts we are hoping that a club wants them and the player themselves are happy to leave. My feeling is that all 3 will need to take a pay cut to move on. Our best bet is loan moves for all 3… at least the club will recoup a decent chunk of the wages and that way the player isn’t out of pocket.
In terms of the new lad… listened to his interview and it’s telling with all 4 signings that they have a bit about them. All seem intelligent (by footballers standards).

Looking at his stats, the last 21 games that Crawley played last season (league and play offs) he made 8 starts which is why I said he was a squad player.
