As cheap back up on a one year deal to come on late in matches and ‘disrupt’ when protecting leads etc I wouldn’t be too against it. How many times last season did we bemoan a lack of nous etc when throwing away points.
If he’s a regular starter then that will speak volumes re. budget…a very limited footballer.
Pretty much this. Fans have been screaming out for a nasty/Anthony Grant type midfielder for ages. As a squad option he'll do, but clearly the spine of new players have to be a cut above him in general if we are looking to compete. |

Tbh, I was expecting a more experienced keeper to fulfil that ‘spine of the team’ comment from Flynn. Seems another punt to me.

Feeling similar. Would hope there’s an experienced option (Ward or another) coming in as well. |

Not sure we have room to fill out squad players when we have what 5 midfielders on the books already. Imo they need 2 new first teasers there already, so we need to move on at least 2. Probably Aguiar and Darcy. |

Flynn did say he was looking to move players on so hopefully that will be sooner rather than later. I'm probably in agreement that one or both of Aguiar and Darcy may be on the exit wish list. |

Cant see there being many suitors for either. |

Really? Reliable source or speculation? |

Would be quite specific speculation that.

Oh don't, imagine the meltdown! Ideally the four out are Aguiar, Adeloye, Darcy and maybe a loan move for Minturn, or a decent size sale for Hutton wouldn't be too bad. But I rather feel like there is a surprise coming. Definitely about to get busy though - we signed 12 players by the 15th of July last summer, and only seven more after, five of which were on deadline day. |

If its 4 I think one has to be a surprise. Adeloye, aguiar, darcy and the three I think most fans would move on. The 4th if not a youngster on loan, then will be a surprise right. Unless it's Hutton I guess. |

Yeah to be clear I'd like to keep Hutton, but he's one you'd not be shocked to see get a move to a higher level for a decent fee. Better that than a fall out already! We also have a decent replacement already in the squad.

Yes, but I think there has been speculation about Adeloye, Hutton and Aguilar. Also that Minturn needs game time. Plus Clayton not settled and Darcy too lightweight. So, perm 4 from that. As for incoming, there has been speculation about Labadie, Kinsella, Firth and Donervan. So, easy to perm 3 from that. |
