I think its about having that strong spine to the team and then supplementing with loan players, next season we can't run the risk of relying so heavily (deliberately) on a loan player that like Simpson if he gets injured or recalled then it disrupts the promotion push.

I expect nothing less than a strong promotion push next season with the aim to get into L1 (lets face it its very unlikely to happen this season now).

I don't expect Clem to chuck silly money at a promotion push but would expect with the embargo lifted able to sign a slightly better class of player by paying more in wages, and if possible and required small transfer fee.

Difficult to interpret Dukes comments into hard facts regarding recruitment next season. A lot of people happily declined a refund on last seasons ST money. So to repay that next season with a lacklustre squad however that looks won’t go down well. In seven years time having redeveloped CG in L2 with hardly anyone in it is not going to work is it?

Expecting similar things next season - some good results and perhaps a decent run at some point.  Ultimately, however, the season will end with a finish between 8th to 12th place.

A bit more investment is unlikely to compete with those clubs coming down from div 3 and those coming up from the conference.

of course. but to predict our form during a season that hasn't taken place yet without any signings and when our current season season hasn't even finished is taking speculation to the highest limit

Quite surprised that Charlton went for Garner really. Still very much a work in progress. Guess he'll want to bring Reed, Williams et al. Another summer without continuity. Sigh.
