Hi all, first post. I've read posts everyday all pre season and after speaking to Carl Baker today while at a golf tourny i thought it a good time to join in. I asked him several questions you were all discussing, so here goes.
1/ Wood told him this morning the Sheff W interest had fallen through and he would almost certainly be staying. Carl said good job, he's been awesome in last two games and should be a certainty to start centre back.
2/ Two French lads at back are both good signings but at moment are defending too deep hence the goals against. Both used to sitting back and will take time to adjust. He suggested Wood/Brown at back to start with.
3/ Jennings will sign in next couple of days, he say's he is quality, a real hard man work horse which we desperately need. Delay due to the off loading of Deegan. He said Jennings is far superior and that he played against him while playing for Stockport but wished he hadnt as all he got out of him was bruises.
4/ Bruno was good but too much like Callum Ball, who he said is a beast. The new Hungarian is excellent and everyone is impressed. Should hopefully sign and then he reckons Cody will score for fun.
5/ Hussey HAS been injured, returns tomorrow and is a big part of the team, not being sold as far as the players understand.
6/ German las was skillful but was thought too light weight for this division.
7/ Told him about the inflatables, he thought it would be brilliant. He said he and the rest of the remaining squad had no intentions of going due to our magnificent support through last years bad times. They all want to repay us. Most of the signings, the players did not want to go but due to financial situation were sacrificed.
He said all the players were totally up for the season, they all believe we have whats needed. the only slight concern is that we will be bullied out of games, hence all the big new signings.
