Could be a “net” 5 in though, so 8 in and 3 out is a possibility. Do we have 3 we can shift though? (Three that we can do without that is.) Colclough? Olomola? Dales?
“Same as his number from last year isn’t it Cass?”
Can’t remember Ferrite, but if it is then I’m wrong again! Thanks for pointing that out, are you Mrs CT in disguise? Good job I included being wrong as a possibility.
MacAtee is #9 (4+5=9)
Olomola has Sharp’s #24
So all good then!
Don’t like McAtee at 45, looks suspiciously like a ‘token’ number that’s unlikely to be used. Hope I’m wrong (not unusual) and not just a cynical old b*****d.
Numbers would suggest there are ins and outs still to come.

“we would have to remember that he was never very good at coming off his line for crosses.”
Haven’t you spotted the common denominator? Every keeper coached by Mussy does the same thing, I think he must tie their legs to the goalposts during coaching sessions!!
” Mistakes are part of the learning process and should be accepted.”
Experience is learning from your mistakes, wisdom is learning from somebody else’s mistakes. (CT c1995 to his offspring)
Neil is not experienced but could have wisdom, let’s hope so.
Understand your thoughts ironking but here’s an alternative view. An experienced manager will, understandably, have several sackings on his CV along with, hopefully, some successes. Whilst sackings are regular occurances they usually involve a generous payoff. Knowing our recent record don’t we risk somebody experienced in these matters coming in with a ‘don’t care’ attitude just waiting for his big pay day? Personally I’d rather have somebody with a desire to succeed and make a career as a manager.
Look, I don’t like to see anybody lose their job but these are exceptional times and it’s happening. My point? We have 2 GK coaches for 3 GKs and our number 1 has been here over 3 years and is still not up to L2 standard.
Conclusions:-
1. We are overstaffed.
2. The coaches are ineffective.
3. Some people never learn.
Harsh? Maybe, but times are tough at the moment.
Yep, another 21 y.o. Who knows, with 4 or 5 keen to move up the league ladder and 5 or 6 keen to establish themselves as league footballers we could be dangerous. It’s a while since we fielded a team where all the players were keen.
(Still one area of concern for me though!!)
My view from an earlier thread:-
Well we seem to have signed players that may have potential but lack experience, very much as expected. But the mix is something of a surprise, if we go with 2 up front we have a choice of KVV, McAtee, Green, Olomola, Jarvis and Mooney. Seems like a bit of overkill as we still have only 1 CM, unless Beestin, Hornshaw, Pugh or Hallam are considered up to the job, haven’t seen enough of any of them to pass judgement. Maybe a little more movement in and out?
As for ” Lewis Butroid this will almost be a great season for Lewis.” have you missed a word out Brian? I fear, based on recent experience, that he might be behind Bedeau for the LB spot. Hope not.
