In retrospect including cup games may be a bit ambitious given how many we played last year, although I'd be happy to take that bet for just the league

Because those two will struggle to get 10 goals between them this season, and that's including cup games!

Nine players makes us sound like we've strengthened more than we have. Of those nine, one is an unproven attacker from Dulwich Hamlet (7th tier), one is an unproven centre midfielder from Lewes (7th tier), one is an 18 year old centre back from Mickelover Sports (7th tier), one is a kid from...

Reid and Stockley would both be awful signings.

We need two strikers, a goalkeeper, a winger or two, maybe another creative centre midfielder and probably another centre back as most of ours are League Two standard.

We scraped promotion from League Two this season and have hardly strengthened on top of losing 40% of our goals, so yeah, some way off

Nope, me too. We are nowhere near ready and our squad is some way off. I have a feeling we're in for a long, hard season battling it out towards the bottom of the table.

Is anyone actually surprised that our owners have sold our top scorer as well as getting £3-4m in windfall but aren't willing to spend to bring in a replacement? It's the same old story as it always has been under SISU. I'm sure we'll pick up a couple of loans before the end of the window and be...

At least Bayliss will be back ready for the start of the season

We'd have to have been deluded if we thought we could get Wilson

He said we’re not close and there has been no progress

My mistake, was under the impression Eisa was 21. Especially poor business on our part in that case.

Two reasons, 1. Eisa is 4 years younger and more clubs were in for him and 2. We’re awful at holding out for a decent fee and tend to value our players way too low.

You're not allowed to say anything remotely "negative" on here mate. Pre-season is going great and we're set for top 6. Who needs McNulty when this mythical replacement striker is coming in any day now. We were actually super smart to sell McNulty before we had a replacement lined up. Trust in...

Eisa going to a Championship club

This is hardly a positive. Half of our first team not being fit or not being available for the start of the season isn't a good thing.

So you just play them in unfamiliar roles and hope it works out? And we have plenty of centre backs but McDonald is the only left sided one and he was abysmal in the second half of last season and none of them can bring it out from the back or pass the ball, both crucial in this system.

We don’t have the centre backs to play it or the strikers. Plus how do you accommodate Jones and Allasani?

Good to see we’re wasting our pre-season playing a formation we don’t have the players for. Great work.

It's been two weeks. There are only two weeks of pre-season left/the transfer window left and three friendlies. We all saw how long it took McNulty to get going and that was with a full pre-season behind him. Whoever we bring in isn't going to have that, at least not with our squad, and we'll be...
