I see Martin thought Quigley did quite well this morning. Is it worth keeping an eye on him longer?

I’m not saying this should affect anything but for what it’s worth I’ve had fans in the conference from various teams suggesting he is absolutely abysmal.

Players can turn though, and going on loan after loan isn’t ideal.

The "big" signing that disappointed you the most? For me Daryl Clare.

Don’t be surprised if our story with Nixon is a bid for one of our players. CJ would be the obvious one...

Decent player on a free. Thought we were finished with strikers though, unless we’re considering cashing in on somebody with Ball being the replacement, or maybe Davies won’t be back fit for a long time?

Thought Dempster said no more strikers.

If we get him, Rose will be off or Davies will be offered a contract release.

He doesn't look prolific but has consistently played higher than L2 so clearly offers something up front.

May be a clue re someone moving out or there again could be pure rubbish?

Let's wait and see.

Would be a good signing, but likely would see one of either rose or Davies moved on. Also seems unlikely if he fancies a move to the opposite end of the world that a league 2 offer in sunny Mansfield will stop him?

Eight pages and we still haven't got a clue. I think it was Luke O'Neill, and we lost out last minute. Only a guess, but CR indicated a signing was imminent and nothing has happened.

If true then it’s embarrassing from CR and she needs to pipe down until players have actually signed.

Didn't we have the same comments when Maynard signed for Plymouth at the last minute?

David ball is a really good player, he is a bit different to what we have, more of a link up man. Clever player.

A strike force of Cook, Maynard, Ball & Rose would be excellent at this level, arguably the best in the league and they all offer something different. Add to that CJ can also play there we’d have every base covered, would be a great position to be in at the end of the window.

Don’t know what to make of the Davies situation. He may well be capable but we’ve seen very little of him and he’s now been out for a very long time. Will take him weeks/months to get up to full speed and then I’m not sure you can trust him stay fit. If we could move him on and Ball could come in i’d be all for it personally.
