Vadaine Oliver would be a disappointing signing to say the least. Released by Morecambe last season and never done very much for anyone. Regarding pace - Adams covers that off on the right hand side ( Hoskins for his frailties also has pace ) . Bunney has pace on the left and it’s incorrect to say that he doesn’t but we have none if he goes on that side of the pitch .

There's rumours on Facebook that the other one is Vadaine Oliver from Morecambe. Goes with the under whelming clue.
And the wanting more clue.

out of those mentioned - only hoskins has out and out pace - but he has no idea how to use it.

I'd assume Oliver would just be the nasty/nuisance back up for if Smith gets injured or suspended...
He's never been prolific but could be a decent foil for others...
Can't be any worse than Sordell...He's still only 27 too & a better option than the rumoured Dagnall!
Hopefully this also means Waters off rather than Morias/Williams leaving

any clues?
A Center back and a forward?
Definitely one forward. Could be replacement for Williams.

The only link to the wanting more clue is Morecambe. Just a rumour from Facebook that also mentioned Goode.

This would be my biggest fear - replacing Williams with Oliver would massively weaken us even if we are looking to go with Smith as a lone forward.

Just guess work on Williams because the player we are potentially signing is similar.

I think the only similarity between Oliver and Williams is that they both have 2 legs - we’re talking a guy who has been released by morecambe and York in recent years and when he came on as a sub last season his own fans booed him (he also scored 5 in 54 for them). The only reason he would come in is that he is cheap and presumably the more expensive Williams would make way.

Oliver is not the same sort of player as Smith and would not be a back up. I would also much rather keep Waters than have Oliver but he is probably very cheap. It’s this type of player that makes me doubt our credentials and at the moment I have us as play off hopefuls only .

not saying he is any good, but if we signed him he would currently be 4th choice behind smith, morais and williams
so he should be a cheap option.
if any of morais / williams left then we would hope they are then replaced!

That forward line worries me . Only Williams has proven to score regularly . The others could come good but it would be the first time they did so .

I think we need to have a defence in place before we can assign ourselves play-off contenders at this stage. They can't all by Nicky Adams caliber, but I would think we need a very good centre back at the very least.
And who knows, I've never seen him play, maybe Olivier has a renaissance under us and transforms into a good player. Worse players have done it. If he comes in and Williams leaves though, it does feel a little Bayo/Platt again.

Goode would be a solid signing but the kind of player I expected even if we had kept Pierre. The next signing (after Goode if the rumour is true) will be the guide to how well we replace Pierre.

How do you know he would not be back up?
