Would love Omar Bogle but don't think there is anyway we could afford him.

I read somewhere this week that Barnet were looking to make a £250k bid for Bogle to team him up with akinde - ludicrous on 2 counts, firstly why would bogle want to go there and secondly where would they get quarter of a million from.

I have a sneaking suspicion that monies set aside for striker/Ricky Holmes replacement was spent on Matty Taylor. Whether over the season that's a good decision or not time will tell. So if more budget could be freed up for a striker especially with Revell out of form that would be my choice.

Interesting. Found the article and it seems like Grimsby are looking at Kemar Roofe type money, which certainly rules us out.

I agree, I think our defending will get better, but we do need a forward who can score goals.

I see that armson at brackey got man of the match yesterday in their cup game at Blackpool - I'd love to see him here but there was an interview with him before the match where he said that he has had interest from a number of league clubs but as he has a good job outside of football it would take a very good offer for him to make the move.

I agree, made a few good runs in the 2nd half, got pace and not a bad final ball either

Not sure that adds up considering we almost signed Dean Cox?

I know I probably sound like a broken record but I'm still gutted that we didn't sign cox - he is exactly what we are crying out for and it was never properly explained why it all fell through at the eleventh hour. I've been thinking about January and how people are saying that page needs to be given the window but surely the question should by why he put together such an unbalanced squad in the first place. In fact if results continue how they are kelvin is going to have to make a decision whether to give him funds to strengthen or to sack him and pay him off giving a new man the opportunity to bring his signings in.

According to KT, Cox pulled out (oooerrr). Said even his agent couldn't work out why.

Remember we have to entice people to what is considered a football backwater.
Not nice but maybe good to target clubs in trouble like Chesterfield, Coventry etc.
Akinde and Gambin from Barnet. Sordell and Jodi Jones from Cov make sense. Luke Berry Cambridge. Have always liked Billy Kee and O'Sullivan from Accrington. Toney?

We can dream about akinde but I would imagine he is way out of our price range - gambin is a more realistic shout but again I'm sure he will be in demand with his contract expiring in the summer. It's all gone quiet on Enoch andoh - I presume that his recovery from injury is taking longer than expected. I've said before that Luke berry from Cambridge would be a cracking signing but again I suspect that he's now out of our range.

Always perplexes me why we don't more players on loan from the London and Birmingham clubs. Were bang in the middle. Even Norwich or what about Watford where Page played?
KT should be banging down their doors no?

There is no guarantee that these players are any better than what we already have. You might get the odd gem but Premier League academy players are not good enough as we've seen for ourselves over the years.

He probably would be banging those club doors down if the transfer/loan window allowed?

I wouldn't have thought there would be any point banging watfords door down re loans/signings due to their ownership by the pozzo family and their links with various foreign teams. To be honest I don't think short term youngsters on loan are going to be the answer - just look at gorre for proof
