After the long summer break we have just four weeks to go before the season starts.
The players are back in training and we’ve just signed our first new player -

So, a 3-1 win against Swindon at Fairwood training ground. Franco watched on as he is not ready fitness wise to play yet.
We’ve got our new midfielder in the bag and the S.Korean winger Eom signing is imminent.
We still need a new goalkeeper, a striker and a centre-back - Rushworth is looking unlikely to return, Jamal Lowe has signed for Sheffield Wednesday and Jerry Yates has gone to Derby on loan, Nathan Wood has gone to Southampton.

So, with 18 goals missing from last season due to Yates and Lowe gone, it’s obvious we are blunt up front with just Cullen. Kuharevich missing from the tour, left at home injured, Ginnelly also. Cabango, a defender scored our only goal in the first proper test against quality opposition in the 2-1 defeat to FC Koln.
It seems we’ve signed a decent goalkeeper in Vigouroux, now it’s urgent we get a quality signing up front to get us the goals before the season starts. Whoever comes in will be playing catch-up for match fitness and a pre-season. The clock is ticking.
