We’ve signed Mazeed Ogungbo from Arsenal - was on loan at Crawley last season and I think he was the lad that I described as a competition winner when they played at our place… hopefully that was just an off day.
Not seeing the massive improvement in Grimsby so far - Vernam looks like the only stand-out signing, and is he better than McAtee? The others just look like the same old one-year contract fodder that does the rounds in this division.
Dean Campbell from Aberdeen (via Stevenage) confirmed for us. Reports suggesting he turned down Tranmere and Colchester because he was won over by our Project™.
Comments seem to suggest it’s a cheeky way to extend your filing deadline because you get a grace period of 3 months when the reporting date changes. Either because of imminent administration or trying to prevent some information being revealed just yet.
Wouldn’t know - I’m not a Hartlepool fan, despite the monkey thing. But would’ve liked us to go for Umerah, despite the fact it sounded like he went off the boil towards the end of the season.

I saw one person make the connection and the next day two or three of those rumour accounts started reporting it. Almost certainly nothing in it, and can’t imagine Hughes wanting to pay decent money for a player that stopped playing before Christmas.
His loan spell here feels like a long time ago now, and was only til Christmas when he got recalled and sent to Rochdale (I think), so it might have been a case of a teenager who was just in a purple patch. He definitely had the right attributes though, but no idea what his attitude was like or...
