I'm not going to slate Evatt for getting Crellin in. We were in L2, we needed a new team and Gilks recommended him.

We nearly fell off the stepladder @ Cambridge.

What a bad un….

Well, I wasn't there, but I'd dispute that. Not match fit for about a month after they gave up on Crellin.

I wasn’t there either but can only say what I was told by someone who was.

A decent excuse to watch this again, we've had worse 2nd halves away.

I like Ollie Norburn - he's a decent midfielder with decent touch who can tackle and pass, He's not the youngest (30ish?) and he doesn't score enough from midfield but he is competitive and can battle a bit.

Would he be the midfield bastard we're crying out for?

He's Freddie Hill's grandson (in law)

He's not quite the player he was since his injjry but would be a good signing

Maybe as close as Evatt could make himself accept.

Was my Player of the Season for about 5 years in a row when I managed Macclesfield Town on Football Manager 2017, so he'll do for me.

Bit of a conundrum really. He was pretty steely in midfield but he got a nasty knee ligament injury which put him out for a year and that's always got to be a worry. That said, Posh were looking to move him on for 8 or 900k before the injury, so maybe the price would now be more affordable.

Reckon he could do a good job for us and he's been pretty decent since he came back - Posh's late run into the playoffs coincided with Norburn's return in March - but i imagine Posh are looking for silly money.

Nothing or nobody that has been mentioned will improve us on last season.

move on

And that also illustrates how much we miss Dapo down that left side!! 😖

Iles is mentioning Lee Bonis again which is all well and good but several clubs have declared an interest in him so his price is on the rise. Seems like our brief Doyler-inspired monopoly on NI players has come to an end unless Evatt can convince him to talk to Toal and Bradley on international duty and be persuaded that the BWFC experience is going to be good for him.
