Part of the deal means we cannot sign any Barrow players under contract for two seasons quite ok with that. Quigley the best player has no goals in twenty games with Blackpool and Port Vale. Rooney 3 goals in 40odd lge games. Faal plays like Quigley and I would not swap either politic or darcy for Rooney. They have Lewis Hardcastle Atherton lad who is a box to box player ex Blackburn u23 captain. One year contract who we can pick up next summer. Two other players they had on loan from Blackburn and one from West Brom who he may go for.

could be a perfect day !!

Looked at some Barrow highlights on youtube. That pitch was dire looked like new house farm. Also they mix it up and play direct especially defending corners

I actually think you are serious !! Now that's funny

This idea that Brentford have some sort of unique system is good publicity for the Brentford chairman.....In reality he has a good scout in France picking up players like Maupay Benrahama and Mbeumo. We had the same 25 years ago but getting our players from Scandanavia .

We need to go up this season if we are to keep the likes of Politic and Darcy and grow as a team.....Next season the embargo is lifted and with that expectations will grow. I expect us to get promotion two seasons running and be back in the championship in two years time. We will only get there if FV are bold and get this appointment right and back him for the following season. The new manager will have a crop of good young players and the pick of players who are willing to drop to lge 2.

He does not hide the fact he tries to copy quardiola way of playing. Ball playing keeper ball playing centre backs. Every player wanting the ball. High pressing when not in possession. I wonder why more coaches do not play this way. Arteta I thought would copy this style He watched everything quardiola does to set a team up then totally goes against that style at Arsenal

Do the maths if the salary cap comes in...May need a couple on pay as they play contracts and maybe get a couple of loan players with the parent club picking up most of the wages

20 man squad roughly £1500 a week ...25 man squad 1200 a week As I stated in a earlier post we need each squad member to play 30+ games this coming season. No room for passengers !

Everything about Evatt team selection revolves around a ball playing keeper. If he came in I would expect him to either go back to Barrow for there keeper or bring in a Ball playing keeper as his first signing.

Much better I can and do see your point when you put it like that. The simple facts are we cannot afford a 25 man squad.If only two are deemed good enough the rest should have been released. Except the four that had contracts for the coming season....Liam Edwards, Harry Brockbank,Sonny Graham..And Adam Senior along with Delaney and Joe Bunney will all be part of the first team squad. Faal and Thomason I have no clue about...Darcy and Politic are shoo ins. Like it or lump it they are the ones with contracts. Put five or experienced hungry pros and they will learn and grow as a team.

Really ? It is my opinion...One I can defend. If you want to join in carry on it is a football forum if not go and do the washing up....good lad

All 12 are ready for first team football we have no under 23 teams any more. So they are signed up for the first team squad. That is the brutal answer to life in div 2 Hence the need to add six experienced players who will play week in week out. Most people can name Liverpool Premier league first team. This is also there Champions lge team...It does not vary from week to week and they proberbly get by on under 20 players....They use the other cups including the fa cup to blood kids....It seems to work for them

Times have changed and we need to change with them. Gone are the days when we paid 3/6 grand plus on a player who made two appearances a season. We can split the season into two pre and after January...As for the cups this season they are irrelevant. Play the kids.

We do not need a squad of 24/5. Wait until the retained list is out. I think off the top of my head we have maybe about a Dozen already signed for next season all be it youngsters. We only need about six quality signings to add to that. Revisit it in January. To many teams have players who get no further than the bench and are happy just picking wages up. We dont want or can afford those players next season.

Speculate to accumulate....We no longer have a under 23 team so I would rather us go for about six good quality players out of contract than 12 average ones. Not quite madness as we proberbly paid Robbie Blake more than any player will earn this coming season. six players on that type of contract will still add up to 12 on basic wages. Stipulate in the contracts that the bonus and second season depends on promotion. Maybe they will walk away but the will be plenty who will be hungry and confident enough to go for it.

If we bring in Evatt and Doyle in the same week what a statement of intent that would send to the rest of div2. We would then have the pick of uncontracted players wanting to come here. Yes it might mean us going to the edge of FV limits of what they want to spend but they need to be bold. This is where Tobias Phoenix will have to earn his money.

Maybe he has found his leval

why?? Was strongly linked with Mansfield last week. Salford Plymouth and us this week . If you dont buy a ticket you will never win the raffle.

Nixon saying us and Salford interested in Eoin Doyle.....No Brainer if we can attract him

Rather have Dom Jolley

Perhaps if they are interviewing for a corporate management position yes, but if Evatt walked in and said he likes a ball playing goalkeeper and I like to play with wingbacks with three in the centre. And I want all teams from under 11s through to the first team to play the same way I am sure it would go over most of there heads. If he came in and said I am only interested in the first team and signing players on short term contracts with no fees or Agent fees maybe it would sound better to the money men...but would be suicidal for the club.

Interviews this week...Serious question who the fucks doing the interviews. Yes I know it will be Tobias Phoenix Andy Gartside and Sharon Brittain, with perhaps Michael James and Peter Kenyon. I am sure if they approached Big Sam perhaps Peter Reid and asked them would they sit in on the interviews for a small consultancy fee I am sure they could get a better feel for the candidates.

Pre season friendly ffs its a Mersey side derby....utter shite Shocking..
