Why waste more money on reeves,everyone could see he adds nowt to the team anymore.

Based on that list, doesn't look like our finances are in as bad a state as made out

Options exercised Jake Reeves Myles Hippolyte Aron Sasu Kai Jennings Offered New Contract Steve Seddon Callum Maycock Harry Sidwell Discussions ongoing Omar Bugiel Patrick Bauer Joe Lewis

Looks like Reeves and Hippo could be staying

Jamie Stuart wasn’t big but great in the air, also Chris Perry and Paul Parker

So much more to be being good in the air than height (and jump height) though. Best header of a ball I ever saw was a bloke who was 5’2” but he could read the flight of the ball perfectly and time his jumps accordingly.

I think we need to do standing jump measurements as part of the signing process.

I think the 2 lessons we learned this season, as shown by goals conceded are. 1 league one is way better than league two. 2 losing all 3 specialist centre backs at the same/similar times (i.e. playing unfit as well) = sucks to be us.

Keefy, as per yesterday, just buy the entire Boreham Wood team & their manager. Will give me an excuse to do something else on Saturdays ;-)

New signings must not be under 6ft. Whatever that is in metric.

Just looked up about clean sheets. We were joint 3rd worse in terms of games not scored in (19 games) Port Vale were the worst and Rotherham second. [Link]

Ok point taken about Johnson - I’d still say we not a particularly big team so not surprise about set pieces

Mark I agree generally but one thing. Johnson is massive. When you see him alongside the likes of Bishop and Smith. Who are taller and obviously in good shape. He’s huge. Him and Bauer have bullied attackers regularly. Pace has been an obvious issue though.

Bush - I would also say that our physicality isn’t that big and slightly disagree there ie I can see why we have not scored many from free kicks

A very wise choice on Saturday Trigger, I wish I had joined you.

Bush Womble - interesting stats. Someone was talking about number of teams who kept clean sheets against us was particularly high this season. I’d like to know if this is true - where we stood in relation to other teams. Ie was it easier to keep a clean sheet against us than elsewhere

Trigger - at 12.14 - it would help most of our players get an extra weeks rest if only they made the cup final the showpiece last game of the season (as it should be) and the premiershit can finish earlier.

Well I stayed in the fan zone at half time on Saturday and watched Soccer Saturday on the big screen. Missed three goals but not ones I’d had wanted to see…

Trigger - at 10.01 - you could always do what you did at Curzon Ashton, you know, turn up just before kick off time and then walk away. 👍 😉

Also thinking a flop at the World Cup for England. Our key players are likely to be very tired after a long and intense season of multiple concurrent competitions.

I actually went to Glasgow last time the CW games were there and saw Australia beat Wales in the hockey there 9-0 before going on to Inverness where I saw them play a friendly against Foeetwood. Now that they have dropped hockey and rugby sevens it doesn’t really interest me any more

Bugger, us plebs won't be able to watch the Commonwealth Games as it's on TNT.

CW, Commonwealth Games as well. Hash, I have a nasty feeling that the World Cup is going to be a bit of a car crash due to where it's being held. I'm only planning to watch the England and Scotland matches if the scheduling allows.
