If their recessions are that bad, maybe we could poach a few of the top players very cheaply from Portugal, Spain or Italy. And Olivia Newton Abbot as a striker, but no John Travoltas please..

I am very worried about the way the recession is building into a monster that no one has an answer too. and if Grease goes belly up then we are all in big trouble Becaue i can see Portugal.Spain.Italy causing us Major problems after, it has widely been reported that we are heading for real trouble but can't see the wood for the trees. If this happens I wonder if attendances may dip even lower.
Politicians. Who'd have em.

How this will happen in the current recession, I don't know.

Danny ???? He'll be constantly standing on it and tripping over - you have a wicked sense of humour Bix !!

Weren't you saying something similar about Danny Stevens last year..? :~D

I agree with this, particularly in the light of the performances of Mohamed and McGlashan against us.

On the two names mentioned, although I wasn't at Vale Park to see Myrie-Williams in action, the commentary that night made it clear he was causing us problems. Marcus Marshall played very well in the entertaining 3-3 draw at Plainmoor, and I remember being delighted when he was substituted. It was also a surprise to me when he was loaned to Macclesfield.

I'm sure Nicho would give a glowing reference to both, and possibly a few others now available!

I too would like to see a real pacy winger (or two!) added to our squad next season. The likes of Marshall at Rotherham or Myrie-Williams at Stevenage (but played against us for Port Vale) have both been released by their respective clubs and would fit the bill.

McLeod has been released by Barnet. I'm sure he'll have lots of suitors though.

Richard Logan has been released, maybe worth a shout? Proven at this level and but has obvious Grecian connections and probably wouldn't come cheap. Thoughts?

tai needs to be shipped out asap and we need more pace upfront

McLeod barely scored a goal post Xmas, I am also led to believe he's a massive belmont. My gut feeling is telling me we'll lose Ellis and O'Kane along with the standard few released (won't be many as for some ludicrous reason we gave 2 years to a few players who had LOADS to prove) so obviously we'll need 2 centre backs as Aberdeen Angus will be heading back to Ding u18s. Easton may well be one they've lined up to replace Eunan, i wouldn't be too disappointed to see Morris move inside and play central midfield, actually allowing us to sign at least 1 but 2 ideally proper wingers. Then of course we need another striker, my gut feeling is they'll offer Tai another year but even so we are 1 short up there.

I would personally like a new right back but I don't think that will happen nor do I think they believe it to be a priority. Fair enough.

would love to see us spend all the eunan money on mcleod, but i guess a lot will need to offset the cost of the stand. a proper 20 a season goalscorer is the most important element for me
