From my reading, it seems his biggest weakness is playing out from the back, which isn't something we're exactly known for, is that a fair assessment?

Both Crawley and Stockport should be as dissapointed as Salford constantly are for not getting promoted with their budgets I'd have thought.

Oh yeah, he was awful for us, but was playing in a poor team and two years younger.

Yeah, I think its very likely that Horsfall is happening, as the guy had been spot on about 100% over last two years and is the only one who has. He did say its not over the line yet. Will need to a good replacement for him but Fox, Burge and Hylton feels like a strengthening for us, Haines...

The idk poster on our forum says we've been after Lee Burge, which would feel like an adequate Roberts replacement if he passes his medical.

For context, hes rated as one of the top 10 League two players last year on whoscored. Fortunately for us, so is his partner Guthrie, but was expecting him to sign higher than league 2.

Someone on our forum thinks Horsfall to Stockport is on the cards, which would be a massive surprise if he ended up in this League next year.

McWilliams has signed a new two year contract, which is good news as he was our best midfielder last year. Might be under pressure by Fox though for his place, so interesting to see how it lies. Roberts has signed for Middlesborough. Sad loss for us, but was inevitable and have been long...

I liked Sam Foley when he was with us. Flys a little bit under the radar a bit, don't expect fireworks, but was tidy and consistent.

My Luton supporting mate say he's better with balls at feet than going long, so interesting to see how he fits in here considering our play style last year. Might make a get a good partnership with Appere, who wants to do stuff on the floor, but our midfield 3 rarely venture that far up the...

Literally 6 hours ago there were fans moaning on our forum about how our budget in the bottom 6 (and Brady supposedly told someone in the pub we had the 17th highest last year) and that the owners have pulled the plug, blah, blah blah. I think what may have happened is that we have a light squad...

And Salford, who werent likely getting out bid if they wanted him, so I'd maybe keep the rumours with a pinch of salt. Perhaps trying to drum up interest

Weird to think really. Roberts and Guthrie (along with Horsfall and Pinnock) have been players of the season and have given us one of the better point tallies we've accrued in League two. Roberts was statistically the second best goalie in the year (Murphy technially performed better, but for...

Liam Roberts is probably off to Middlesborough. Hardly unexpect tbh, the only keeper better than him statistically in the League last year whether that's goals conceded or percentage of saves made was Joe Murphy who only played half the games. Still a loss for us though we'd have been planning...

He didn't have a lot of physicality to him and struggled to hold the ball up, but the one thing he looked good at was his movement off the ball and ability to get into good positions.

Nah, he wasnt terrible, but his injury and drop from the team coincided with a huge jump in our form. Fairly standard League 2 player, but I'm not sure what his position is... was supposed to be the most forward postioned of a midfield 3 for us, but never very productive at either late runs or...

He's not a complete donkey, but his only use is coming on to defend a lead by winning free kicks and wasting time. He's not going to contribute offensively. One goal every 15 games isn't an enviable record.

Us, Salford and Barrow are all being linked with Kyle Ferguson, Altrincham Centreback

Almost exactly what is expected, apart from maybe Maxted being kept, and wanting to stay after basically playing no football.

I think Horsfall is the third highest rated centre-back in the league based on whoscored.com ratings, just below Guthrie and Turnbull (and by god, we know a good centre-back at least based on all of those playing for us in the last 3 years), so he'll definitely be off up the leagues though I...
