Yes looks a good signing and actually involved an undisclosed fee!

It might have just been a box of kippers, as for Malcolm Poskett (showing my age here!), but nonetheless seems a good prospect and got regular runouts, albeit largely as a sub, for runaway NL champions Barnet.

Pleased with this.

Grayson seems to be going about his business of building a team. Bit still to go but recruiting steadily now.
I have no idea what his opinion of using the loan market but it is pretty certain he'll have his contacts.
A Cleary, Kemp and Armstrong would be nice. :wink:

Well he's putting bums on seats. No sign of anything that stands out different to previous summers though.

People have to get some perspective. These are boggo NL signings. Steady away. They need to reread their cringey excited comments from summers gone by about signings that turned out to be bang average.

Agree 100%. The incoming signings to date willl definitely be a cut above the absolute dross that Hartley introduced and possibly better than many of those recruited over the last couple of seasons. However we still await the introduction of players (permanent or loanees) who are capable of regularly opening up the opposition and thus make the difference between yet another season of mid table mediocrity and a genuine promotion push. The likes of Mani, Clear and Mancini were all capable of such - if not always as consistently as we would like. Grayson is no mug and will surely appreciate this but will Singh's wallet match his latest appointment's requirements?

Some are going on like we have signed a world beater, he has come from the mighty barnet who loaned him out to Braintree, granted he did ok at Braintree. Pools fans don't seem to learn the lesson they bull these players up expecting great things and like you say they are just bog standard national league players.

Well for a start we've cleared out anybody who has spent a good chunk of time on the treatment table, which can't be a bad thing.

Just got to hope that we can keep our better players fit and available for the majority of the season. Whilst also avoiding needless yellow/red cards - as it cost us dearly during Uncle Darren's short ill-fated reign.
