Disappointed no Nathan Thompson. No idea if we were ever seriously in for him though.
I have a feeling it was fan talk, putting 2+2 together. I doubt we could realistically get near a L1 wage anyway. |

Just putting these two names in here as possible signings/rumours/realistic targets...both from/were at Eastleigh 6' 5'' CDM/CB Ousseynou Cissé - 32yrs or 6'1 RCB Christian Maghoma - 25yrs Someone like either of them would be pretty decent, especially Maghoma would really is trying to kickstart from the bottom after being a Spurs Academy lad. Good full season at NL with Eastleigh. Probably more than capable at League Two level. Cissé is older and more versatile. Probably fits the Anthony Grant mould of player and at 6' 5'' he's not a small lad...Aud would sign him up for sure. Both seem like types that Flynn might try to sign as well. Maghoma contract expires end of the month and Cissé is a free agent after being released. Strange as it looks like he had a decent season  |

Boring, but useful (as a handy number 2) |

Can’t beat a number 2, Bob.
How about Oshilaja?

As in Deji? Looks like a handy enough lower league centre back. Don't know a huge amount about him but his club history suggests he's an experienced fella. Have you heard anything about our interest or are you just naming random footballers? Edit - just checked and Burton offered him a new deal. |

Nope not released by Burton. |

Potentially boring one, but we haven't had confirmation that Brewitt signed the deal he was offered yet have we?

I was sure that Brewitt signed the extension before the season ended. I think it was mentioned on BBC Wilts pre game back in April. |

It was definitely rumoured, but the retained list just said "offered" (and that was at the same time they announced that Austin had signed his) https://www.swindontownfc.co.uk/news/2023/may/robins-confirmed-retained-and-released-list/ Nothing since either. |

Can't see the club making a song and dance about Brewitt, I rate him but it would be very meh and just wind the perpetually outraged up. ‘Burton Albion fear out-of-contract trio Mustapha Carayol, Terry Taylor and Deji Oshilaja have played their last games for the club. Rivals League One and Two clubs are in the hunt for their signature.”
Considering how long ago he left here Mustapha Carayol must be about 40 now! |

Is this all guess work about an announcement at 5pm today?
