If he's as bad as Willis god help us.
This is exactly how we continue in this ever decreasing circle of the team getting weaker season on season. How can this lad be called an ideal replacement for Willis?
Nothing against the lad untill i've seen him play a few games but nobody can tell me this is positive and will strengthen the team.
We have a habit of letting are better players go and replacing them with inferior ones. If we do that during this close season we will be in the Conference this time next year.
The question is do we think our current team is good enough to get promotion in league two?
I don't even rate Beavon, what's he actually done since he's been here? All the games I've seen him play this season he's been poor and lacking pace or skill.well no as we have released most of them lol
if we keep willis,bigi,g thomas,jones and beavon i think thats a good start to life in league 2 though.
Is this where the CET link us to every single player posible and everyone gets excited? Then By September 2nd everyone is crying that we signed a few loans and made most of the u18's senior players?

If true it shows that MR is getting on with recruiting a squad early enough, so he can mould them pre-season.
Secondly, I presume he'll be cheap....otherwise we won;t sign him.
but then jordan would have to make wayCant we also sign someone called Cagney to play alongside this bloke.
To have Cagney and Lacey as our centre backs would be fantastic
Did you know Robert is from Yorkshire originally? Mugabe spelt backwards is e-ba-gum.Or Robert Mugabe
Not sure what level of player some people are expecting us to sign.
Give me a player like Lacey who's played 100 senior games at 23 at L2 or lower level knows the style, will have played on Tuesday nights in the winter on big heaps in front of 2000, yet I get the impression people would rather us sign 20 year old CB from bottom end Champ club on loan with 2 senior appearances and has played 99% of his career at academy level.

Isn't Kyle walker looking for a move too, I reckon he could do a job for us!To be fair it's disgraceful the club haven't gone for Gary Cahill & Jan Vertonghen!
The latter probably counts more as a left-winger IMOThe last Zimbabwean 'right-winger' we signed was Peter Ndlovu so I'm up for Robert Mugabe
whats given you that impression? i mean specific posts. curious
In a general sense, I'd rather managers signed players I didn't really know about - it shows they're actually scouting, rather than lazily going for a 'name'.Few negative posts on this thread plus anytime we sign a player from a club that's seen as a 'lower league' side he must be useless.
Stokes being an example.
There will be a few out there who'd prefer Rawson back than this lad.
Not saying I'd prefer this Lacey lad, but I thought Rawson did better under Robins than under Slade, so I wouldn't be adverse to haviing him back.Few negative posts on this thread plus anytime we sign a player from a club that's seen as a 'lower league' side he must be useless.

Why are people righting him off before we have even signed him. We've tried signing household names and players who are 'experienced' and it hasn't worked. A young player with experience in the league we find ourselves in, and a player who is likely to improve. I'm quite excited by him to be honest, exactly the type of player we should be looking at.

Yup. Great if it works. Less great if you sign Gary Deegan.sisu model when they first joined.
Deegan was a regular for Shrewsbury Town this season, he as a contract for the league one side next season.Yup. Great if it works. Less great if you sign Gary Deegan.
Best thing to do would be to invest in the infrastructure, really, to maximise our chances of getting it right...
Shame we signed him to drag us down to that level, eh. And all for a mere £6,000pw (or was it £8,000? It was a matter of public record at the time, although I can't find it now alas!)Deegan was a regular for Shrewsbury Town this season, he as a contract for the league one side next season.

Could be a great signing. Certainly experienced at this level.
My only very slight reservation considering his age and career so far is is he the sort of player you sign to consolidate in league 2 or progress from league 2? Probably depends on who else we sign I guess. Can't really judge that on one player alone.
