Interesting to find out which players would join JFH if he gets the Doncaster job (now odds on favourite). I suspect VVW would leave to join him and possibly Turnbull and Bunney. Can't see many others wanting to play for him though.

I don’t think anyone’s claiming he is messi, he is a grafter and one of our many issues last season was a lack of balance between the so called flair players and the workers. He’s also nowhere near as limited as some are making out.

He's like Gilligan. But without a goal in him. Much better players out there... Especially if people are suggesting sticking him out wide. Him, Powell and Hoskins would probably chip in with 5 goals if they all played behind a lone striker.

Fair enough, it’s all about opinions. I just feel that prior to the injury he picked up pre season he was looking decent - I think it set him back and then JED was replaced by the tactical genius that was JFH and he didn’t get much of a look in despite some players (crooks, Powell, grimes) drifting in and out of form.

Agreed. He was picking out players for fun against Sileby and The Red Lion.

Austin: 'If the first game of the season was tomorrow and I had this squad then I’d be very happy'.

Quite a claim for a team that finished on -34 goal difference, but I take his point. On paper this is a very decent squad for this level. Our problems last season were primarily down to tactics and 'character' rather than innate ability. If Austin keeps the tactics fairly simple and on the front foot and selects the right kind of characters (e.g. McWilliams, Barnett and Foley - all three of whom were unfairly neglected by JFH) then we should have a good season.

Personally, though I still feel we need a pacey attacking midielder/playmaker type:
Morais would fit the bill.

                   ROD
       Facey  Taylor  Barnett Buchanan

               McWilliams  Crooks
                        O'Toole

         Powell               New AM
                 Williams

A reasonable team but would be a lot better with Peirre instead of Barnett

Why Bowditch and vV? vV hardly played, injured and cost money! Bowditch is an established lower league player. I have seen Turnbull put in some decent performances!

Interesting view - imo Bowditch was poor first time round and even worse this time - I want players for my team that care hence I won’t even waste text on vV

I'd be happy if we could just get a few to go out on loan again so they don't take up a massive wage from us, or be sold/released if we have no intention of playing the,. As it stands at the minute I can see us like this (Reserves in brackets):

ROD (Cornell)

Facey (Phillips) Ash (Barnett) Pierre (Turnbull) Buchs (Bunney)

Powell (Whaler) JJ (Foley) McWilliams (Bridge) Crooks (Roberts)

Williams (Waters) Van Veen (Hoskins)

To go out on loan (or Sold): Iaciofano, Goff (Bowditch, Coddington, Kasim)

All could change if people want to leave and find a buyer, but I cannot see that happening at the minute. Still plenty of the window left though.

2 spells the club and I have no idea what his position is. Definitely top of my list to be sold - but strongly doubt we'd sell him. Any rich Conference clubs this season?

This just shows that wingers should be top priority. Only one first team winger in the squad (Powell). Not sure if Whaler/Roberts are getting anywhere near the first team next season and I think Crooks is wasted out wide. 2 more needed on the assumption Hoskins/Bunney can fill in there when needed.
