Should we read in to that fact that Coddington, Kasim, Waters and JI not going that they are on their way out??? I could make a case for the first 3 but JI that seems odd unless its another season long loan to the National League for expereince....

Young Joe will definitely go out on loan with us having Williams, Morais and currently Van Veen/Waters. Plus Hoskins/JJ can play in advanced striking roles. I'm surprised with Waters, thought Deano would give him a go but it seems not. Unsure if that is because of other interest. The Coddington situation is moving towards us going with Cornell/Goff as our two keepers. Unless we get another one in, which means Goff could go out on loan. Either way I'm sure Coddington will move on. Kasim who?  |

It'll be interesting how long we persevere with Joe. From what I've been told, he isn't even close to first team standard yet and will be 20 around the start of the season. Hopefully he can impress out on loan somewhere (not sure it worked too well for him at Brackley?). |

As far as Joe goes, contrast the way Austin talked about him last season with how he has talked about McWilliams, Roberts, Whaler and the young Centre Back that has gone to Spain. Also how he's used him in the friendlies so far, he's been shunted to the wing a lot, even swapped with Waters in one game after coming on up front I think.
I'm sure we'd all love Joe to come good, academy players are always rightly given a lot of goodwill, a potential Goalscorer even more so I think.
If he is going to make it with us he needs to at least spend the first half of this season on loan at a decent standard, National League North/South as an absolute minimum.
Regards the keepers I'm guessing the plan is new No.1 in, Cornell 2 and Goff no.3. Maybe a loan for Goff with a recall clause. I don't think the Transfer window applied in non-league so he could be recalled any time in an emergency. It just occurred to me that Austin has never said a word about Goff either, could be because he's a keeper and he leaves the judgement to his specialist coach I guess.

Worth noting that the transfer window for permanent signings closes earlier this season, August 9th to be precise, although the loan window will remain open until August 31st as normal.

From Sky Sports:
Sunderland have bid £1m for Cheltenham Town’s highly-rated striker Mohamed Eisa.
Peterborough and Portsmouth are also keen to sign the 24-year old who joined Cheltenham from Isthmian League side Greenwich Borough last summer.
In his first full year as a professional, Eisa 25 goals, winning the club's supporters' and players' player of the year awards.
Sky Sports News understands that Cheltenham are looking for a fee around £1.5m
Crazy money for a player who's only had one year of professional football.

When they’ve sold him maybe they’ll try to buy billy waters? |

Much like Isaac Vassell after just 1 professional season with Luton, Birmingham supposedly paid £1m+ for him. The money sloshing around in the top 2 divisions is crazy. Sunderland were paying Jack Rodwell £3.8M pa to more or less sit around on his arse for the last few years, beyond belief! https://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/jack-rodwell-finally-take-pay-14520392 |

I assume we'll see more players going on loan 'with a view to making it permanent in January' type loans happening at the end of August? |

Sam walker is on trial at Bolton and it looks very possible that he'll sign permanently for them so that puts that rumour to bed unfortunately.

Speaking to a friend of mine who now works for a local rag up in that part of the world, it seems Walker has only played a 2nd half of a behind closed doors friendly for Bolton and he reckons he would be surprised if they do sign him. - But you never know! |

There was an incident at the end of last season where certain players didn’t “check out” for the season .
I wonder if that has anything to do with those left behind because it was threatened at the time .

Sorry mate, what do you mean by “check out”? I’m struggling to understand the end game of someone like kasim - I understand completely that he is entitled to sit his contract out but he has now been completely frozen out and is just harming his own career by not playing or even training with the first team squad. |

Check out means turn up on the last day before the break and do what is expected before clearing off to Magaluf . |

Another summer of goalkeeper speculation it seems. |
