What about Ricky Miller - Dover - 30 goals this season, only the division below league 2, but looks class

Paddy Madden has never played in League Two and is in Scunthorpe's first team.

pastythegreat · Mar 18, 2017

Would love to have Paddy Madden play for us but it's a non starter! Never gonna happen. IF Scunny get promoted, he'll be playing Championship football next season! If scunny don't get promoted, he'll be playing league 1 football next season. Why on earth would he want to leave that behind to play League 2 football for us???

He has played League 2 for Scunny but even so there would be many better options for him than Cov if he was after a move which it seems he isn't.

Ruben Reids' contract is up at the end of this season! We'd be better off going for somebody like him!

Not sure about specific individuals, but a ball winining midfielder, a huge lump of a centre half and a target man. Set up as a 4-4-2 with Haynes left mid

higgs · Mar 19, 2017

Reda johnson and akenfenwa

We can only sign players who are good in league 2. So as present team is only good enough for L2. Not that tough. Drop their wages, as L2 wages are lower. If they don't like it, Jog on. Ability levels, another issue altogether. I'd keep maybe 3 or 4. Then completely rebuild, early. So get to know each other. Give them an idea that owners are mental but fans desperate to see a winning team. Winning is good. So we need a team that can put their foots in. Not a bunch of pus....
That's a few starting points.

Dover said in January that they'd listen to offers this summer for him and want upwards of 250k with a few clubs likely interested which may spark a minor bidding war that should ko any potential interest from ccfc.
Personally I don't think he's worth the punt. A very late developer it seems at nearly 29, having done the non league circuit and released from Luton in the summer 2015. It's clicked for him at Dover last season and this but at 29 you can get players for free who've done it at league two on a free.
Chris Dagnal is available on a free and has scored 9 league goals so far in a poor Crewe side 12 in all competitions, averaging 1 in 3. A proven league two striker.
Marc Richards at Northampton Town's captain a target man at 6ft. Out of contract too, ok he's 34 but doing it weekly still and scored 8 in the league and 11 in all competitions. Career stats are 1 in 4 at league one and better than 1 in 3 at league two.
As previously mentioned Reuben Reid, a big powerful versatile player at Exeter City. Should he want to relocate to the midlands he's available for free. Scored 9 league goals so far and averaging 1 in 3 and a league two career tally of 1 in 3 also.
There's players out there available come the summer that are proven in the league, you just gotta look.
Over to you Mark Robins.....

stevefloyd · Mar 19, 2017

We also need someone to actually provide chances for our strikers. I know its not feasible but I would happily wave goodbye to our entire squad... clear the fucking lot out and really really give us a fresh start next season but to do that we need to be able to identify potential in players coming here and as yet we dont have that scouting network to be able to do that

Whilst we're on unrealistic targets that Messi fella might be useful at getting away from League 2 defences.

Paddy Madden!

Garryb80 · Mar 19, 2017

Realistic signing could be akinfenwa. We wanted someone like him so why not him!

AFCCOVENTRY · Mar 19, 2017

Let's not make the mistake bloody mowbray did with wanting championship players to play in L1!!

We need to snap up the best out of contract L2 players.

And not dither either. Waited far too long trying to assemble a squad last time.

Let's line them up, get them in, bang, bang, bang!!

Then, once we have shot all them, let's get some real players in.

If the players are getting shot then the squad is already here...

AFCCOVENTRY · Mar 19, 2017

Here's the complete list of out of contract L2 players. Some decent players there.

We could do a reunion party. Scott Shearer, James Bailey, Michael Doyle, Chris Dagnell, Jon Stead, Jermaine Grandison

He needs to crack on sharpish with a new keeper for next season. That along with 2 good striker, should be his priority.

Didn't he go to jail for something? I can't remember

AFCCOVENTRY · Mar 19, 2017

If Portsmouth go up from L2 we will be the biggest club in that league. That in itself should attract the best L2 players. Issue is what is the playing budget really going to be like next season?

We will have one chance to get out of L2 and we have to do it next season. If we don't it will be L1 scenario again and we will stay there a few more years and fall out of the league football.

What worries me is all the background noise that will pipe up in the summer again. Academy situation and we have one more season at the Ricoh.

trevelfarandwide · Mar 19, 2017

Are we expecting quality signings?!

Come on lads, we're gonna have either the same useless jobbers or a new influx of absolute dross. Let's be fucking realistic.

We are gonna STRUGGLE in L2.
