Think we took our Macc impression too far with a squad of 15 players againt yourselves, just 1.5 weeks before season is underway..
Ricketts has said he 'hopes' to sign a couple of players this week, so we'll see..
So our big announcement this morning is the signing of forward Mike Fondop-Talom on a two-year deal..
Finished the season with Halifax where he scored 4 in 10; and was also at Guiseley for a few months earlier this season
Thoughts Halifax/Guiseley fans?
Forget the threadbare squad - I think the count is 11 first team players as it stands with Tharme rejecting a deal?
The most alarming is that after being appointed two months ago, and a week into pre-season, that he has no assistant or GK coach...
Pretty impressive given our shite ending to last season, and that we've signed just the one player so far. Should imagine we'll tick over to something like 2100-2200 again..?
We barely played Ainge; only made the one start and the rest were apps coming off the bench.
Pretty much said in our local rag he wasn't fully fit and needed the summer break to get back on track...
Yeah I can remember the Torquay fans raving about him a couple of seasons back before this awful injury he had; can't say I've seen much mention of him this season - played 40 league apps though.. (according to Soccerbase)
Kelly started the season on the left wing where he was completely anonymous. Started playing more in the middle towards the mid-point of the season but still didn't feel he was involved enough in most matches. Thought he was playing better in the final few games I saw but have no qualms with him...

WELL SEEING AS I CANT VOTE FOR SHAUN PEARSON AND MANNY SMITH
Based on games seen - I will go for Roger Johnson (Bromley); ignoring the fact he got sent off just before half time.. he was completely dominant in the first half against us in the away game: nothing got past him, won all his...
That was a fantastic match - delighted for Williams to pick up his third title. Easy to forget how sensational he was back in the day (for a shorter period) when you have Ronnie and Higgins of his era who have been at the top for so long.
Your personal player of the season: Manny Smith. A toss up between Manny and Pearson, pretty much the sole reasons why we were able to stay up towards the top (until our collapse) given our lack of goals.
Your teams best prospect: Nobody really, all our best players are already well known and...
Curious to find out about Tamworth after Morrell had been in charge there. A few solid seasons prior to this..
Were they right in the relegation dog fight when they sacked him?
