Absolutely! They signed Kristian Dennis and Enzio Boldewijn too among others too. On paper, 3 weeks to go, they're up there with Mansfield.
Boldewijn also only scored 15 goals in his last 90 games in L2 but Dennis isn't a bad signing, although both cost a combined fee of around £300k with Hemmings costing around £80k too, thats a fair amount for this league. Can't say I was overly impressed with Boldewijn in the away game at Crawley either.

TBF to Power (unusual I know for most Town fans) but not that many teams have made what could be classed as "good L2 quality" signings, MKD have signed a few Exeter players when you would have thought they would be big hitters in this league.
Exeter have signed a couple of proven players but nothing that could be classed as good, Cheltenham have signed 9 players, all jobbing L2 players, FGR also signed a few but none would be classed as very good for this level.
Of the other big spending teams, only Lincoln signing an unfit 29 year old Akinde for silly money and silly wages which mostly came from 2 trips to Wembley last season, and a Mansfield team who are hell bent on going bust if the wages offered to their new signings is to be believed (Preston apparently almost doubled his wage offer from Swindon and Tyler Walker said to be on £5k per week loan with Mansfield covering all of that, Khan more than doubled his Yeovil wage to sign for them) craig Davies who was Oldhams highest earner last season also joining them.
Only Mansfield can be said to have made several good signings for this league, so far, and my God how I would love it if they royally fucked up under Flitcroft again this term.
I can't believe he chose to sign for Mansfield for the £££, surely it was because the Town fans were a tad grumpy.

Haven't seen them announced yet (very late this year) but the OS piece on Nelson says he will wear No 5.

Website hasn't been remotely updated.... https://www.swindontownfc.co.uk/teams/first-team/Seems to be a sign of the times that they don't do the team pic or the player pics until a few games into the season, I assume after the window has 'slammed shut'!

Players taking obviously wrong numbers for their positions really annoys me, why the he'll does Doughty take 3!? Should have taken 18 instead.
