surely Bayo would be worth an approach.  Wycombe may not fancy him in L1 and his goals and assists in L2 were excellent again last year.  Bayo and JJOT on the same pitch.....

Bayo signed a new contract. Move on.

I agree our biggest priority has to be strikers and a midfield enforcer.

I wouldn't name any individuals, what I want is the same as I did pre-January…characters, enforcers, leaders. I have no idea who those lower league warriors are but a 'John Gayle up front', a 'Jason Taylor in midfield' and a 'Sammo/Dyche type in Defence' would be where Id be prioritising.

We *may well have two of those already in McWilliams and Pierre (who was seen as that type of player at Wycombe). Neither of these players played for us much last season for different reasons. But we certainly need a character up front. Of course a winger wouldn't go amiss but I think Bunney and Powell will be just fine flanking a strong midfield next season in league2.

I said the same thing before the January window opened. Getting rid of players is far more important. And theres a good half a dozen Id be looking to ship out for different reasons before even worrying about bringing anyone new into the squad!

If you could get the likes of James Hanson even on a season long loan then i believe we have a chance to do very well.

These players i would like to see -


James Hanson
John Akinde
Clayton Donaldson
Dave Tarpey

you give these types of players decent service they will score goals

Hoskins and Foley will struggle in L2?

Yep, imo.

Let me remind you again hoskins was a squad player only in our champ season. He is bottom end lg2 /top end confrence at best and I hope we won't be playing him as a forward. Foley has spent much if his career in LG 2 with yeovil and the like. He might be alright, but if either are near out starting 11, I would suggest we won't be competing near the top 8

James Hanson has only scored once since January last year. His return of eighty something goals in 300 games for BCFC isn't that great either.

If you're playing two up front then his strength would be a good foil for a natural goalscorer

Good point. You'd think if he was put up for sale, only teams in the bottom half of League Two would have any interest.

Id Keep Hoskins.
Needs to improve his finishing but will chase everything all day and doesnt stop. He's like a terrier giving defenders no time on the ball.

Hoskin & VV could work if they both want it to

I wouldnt be surprised if we tried to resign Grimes again

A number of you keep saying this. 
Apart from a remark at the end of season thing, what is this based on because he is still under contract for another two years?
Starting with 'I think/believe' isn't the response...

Shouldn't that be preceded by "I believe"?

Based on what DA has repeatedly said about his footballing "philosophies" he'll be looking for athletic, borderline aggressive, attack minded players.

Feel free to state which of the current crop fit that billet and add any others from elsewhere - if you can think of any...
