I know an Aberdeen fan who will back up Baggy's view, "absolute shite" was his expression.

I'd love to see Sam Foley back at whaddon road in the red and white but I think there's more chance of Villa beating Man City than that!

I'd like to see us take a punt on Klukowski.

Deffo NO to signing Grimes, after he turned tail on us last summer at the last moment and headed back up to his beloved North - the glamorous Bury!

Leave him up there to freeze - after all that, he couldn't get into the Bury team anyway - what a t**t!

Made more sense for him to stay up North, it didn't work out for him like it didn't work out for Vincent here.

Reckon he'll sign a new deal - or move upto L1.

Scunthorpe release striker Connor Jennings. Scored 16 in 16 for Macclesfield last season. Worth a gamble?

If Scott Brown did move on I'd make a move for Paul Jones released by Crawley

Isaac Osbourne's contract is up at Partick. Been out injured since December, but left the Dons to try to find a club closer to his family in the midlands and couldn't find one, hence signing for Partick, last summer.
If, and it's a big IF given his history, he could get fit and remain so, he'd boss League 2. Possibly too much of a risk though.

Surely Partick are more conference standard? I wouldn't take anyone below top six in the SPL

Is he? Been No. 1 at Exeter for 4 years, so I would think he must Ok at least.

lol.

Off the top of my head...

Scott Fox

Jamie Hamill, Danny Wilson, Mark O'Hara, Aaron Taylor-Sinclair.

Isaac Osboure, Richard Brittain, Kevin Thompson, Kenny McLean.

Kris Boyd, James Collins

subs; Mark Brown, Rocco Quinn, Alexei Eremenko, Ryan Stevenson, Steven Thompson.

All bottom 6 SPL, that team would p!## L2 and probably L1.

Sorry to disagree Baggy but the only SPL team who would p!## league one is Celtic. In my eyes the SPL is on a par with top half of league two/bottom half of league one.

Scottish football is undoubtedly poor, but to suggest that you wouldn't take anybody not playing in the top six is ridiculous.

Alex Rodman leaves Grimsby after rejecting a new contract. 27 year old winger/striker. Worth a look?

Summerfield not been offered a contract by the Salop.

No substance to him being linked with us....though may just start it off!

Don't think Yates will be offering nothing to Summerfield.

We can't afford him now - reckon he'll find another L1 club, or a big budget L2 club.

My understanding of what you have written is that Yates will be offering something to Summerfield.

Joe Jacobson has been released by Shrews too, he would be a decent signing. Sam Togwell has been released by Chesterfield, I believe Keith Downing tried to sign him.

Don't remind me. Summer 2008, Downing did brilliantly to keep us up after Ward left. However, the enduring news stories coming from WR that summer were that player after player were invited down to the training ground and were apparently impressed by them, yet NONE OF THEM SIGNED! Togwell was 1 of them - Ba****d!

Was that the year we had our Q&A ready for Martin Patterson and/or Gary Hooper? :lol:

Think it was - actually, was it Summer 2008? Never before or since have I heard Chelt linked to so many strikers in 1 summer - and none of them liked us enough!

I was gutted that summer - some great players linked with us.

Grant McCann just about to come on for Peterborough by the way.

Sunmerfield was great. All apart from one little match at Wembley where he had the mother of all stinkers and managed to prevent Mo from receiving the Worst Player on the Pitch award.
