Title: Help me find players says Martin Allen Post by: bigbobjoylove on Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 19:22:48 http://www.thisisgloucestershire.co.uk/sport/news/Help-players-8211-Allen-s-appeal-fans/article-964725-detail/article.html
BOSS Martin Allen has invited Cheltenham Town supporters to tell him which players he should sign this summer. Robins followers who enjoy playing football management computer games, or those who have always thought themselves capable of unearthing gems, will now be given a chance to prove their talent-spotting abilities. Allen has said he would like to add at least four new faces to his squad and plans to work with a group of 18 professionals next season, with the addition of one or two long-term loans. One of the new arrivals is likely to be winger David Hutton, who has impressed during a loan spell from Tottenham Hotspur during the final weeks of the season. Allen has been out watching matches in a bid to find new players, with a striker, a central midfielder and a full-back likely to be top of his priorities. He was forced to dispense with chief scout Alan Fettis when the club faced a cash flow crisis in February and he is open to suggestions from fans, as long as the player in question is available on a free transfer. "Due to a lack of scouting, I would be more than happy to receive any ideas and names of players for me to follow up," Allen said. "Unfortunately I will not be able to reply to every letter or email, but the players must be out of contract for me to consider them."

Organise a trial match like King (and Sturrock?) used to do. Title: Re: Help me find players says Martin Allen Post by: Lumps on Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 19:34:25 I can think of about 15 he can have.

Title: Re: Help me find players says Martin Allen Post by: reeves4england on Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 22:35:39 Brez, Pook, Smith, Sturrock and Vincent could all do a job in League 2 I reckon. I could do Allen's job :D
Title: Re: Help me find players says Martin Allen Post by: Doore on Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 22:58:07 Corr on a pay as you play deal would be a good shout for them.
Title: Re: Help me find players says Martin Allen Post by: Power to people on Thursday, May 7, 2009, 07:40:55 Brez, Pook, Smith, Sturrock and Vincent could all do a job in League 2 I reckon. I could do Allen's job :D But surely Brez will be wanting to move to a championship club as his agent has told him he is good enough. Some of our players released wil lbe good enough for L1 or L2, bnut with so many players being released this summer their will be a lot that will not find clubs, only the best survive.
