Who remembers the days when we hadn’t signed any players, silent Sixfields wasn’t it?
Anyway, does anyone think our squad is weaker on paper this season?

Let me make one thing absolutely clear, the Trust “advisor” is not god. Are you going to tell him or shall I?

Absolutely not! L1 is far stronger this season too & now so is our squad imo Staying up still the first objective though

Wow, great signing, wasn't expecting that. If Fosu and Roberts stay fit and firing then we should cause teams problems... On paper we are punching with those 2!
The squad looks decent and nicely balanced now. There is definitely more strength and depth across all departments.
In terms of a first choice XI, It's a much stronger attacking lineup compared to last season and the defence is no weaker at worst. Not sure on the midfield yet, depends on if Chouchane and/or MDD can step up to fill at least one of Leonard's boots. Overall though I'm optimistic about survival which would be an achievement given the strength and spending power in the division.
Burge/Tzanev
Odimayo/McGowan Mbete/Koiki Willis/Baldwin Guthrie/Magloire
Sowerby/Hondermarck Chouchane/Fox McGeehan/Pinnock
Fosu/Hoskins Roberts/McCarron Eaves/Morton
Others: Dadge, Brough, Lintott, Dibley-Dias, Wilson

That signing was worth waiting for. I watched him play for Birmingham v Fulham on Sky the other night so he will at least be ready to go. I can't actually remember how he played as my focus was on Leonard but he should be a cut above L1 level I would have thought. Has played plenty of games for Wales as well.
I wonder if he's able to play tomorrow?

No, had to be registered by 12pm to play... Hopefully, he'll be available along with Eves v Wycombe

Well the manager has been backed in the transfer window. He would have probably liked more, and the powers that be might have liked to commit to less, so probably about right given our circumstances.

Just woke up and seen the great signing of Tyler Roberts.
Well done this season to the management team in the quality and quantity of the signings. Now to mould them into a team.

An unbelievable signing. Well done Kelvin etc.
We now have a number of great attacking and creative options, still need someone to put the chances away. I assume that will fall into place via a free transfer next week.
All being well we will have the fire power to nullify the repeated defensive cock ups!

Definitely seems like a long while since people were moaning about the lack of signings, lack of budget and having to pick from dregs left over.

Im off to bed. Its my birthday today, and the current Mrs T has that look in her eye. It would be such a shame to have to turn her down.
Happy birthday for yesterday Tabby, I hope you are not feeling any older, but perhaps a little wiser. Can your celebratory birthday pint from me wait until Huddersfield? Did the current Mrs T manage to wash the grit out of her eye OK?

Will be interesting to see how Brady handles this big squad, there will be a lot of players expecting decent minutes not even making the match day squad.

With his career to date you have to wonder how he finds himself here but with 2 late big money signings Birmingham obviously thought his game time would be limited and we benefited from the few minutes they had to arrange a club for him. He has an extensive injury record and has only played just over 200 games at age 25 so l hope we can keep him fit as he should be a major asset.

He'll miss at least two of our games (three including today), hopefully not too many more.

You never know, Birmingham might let him play against them, like we did when JJOT was on loan at Southend!
