I heard Matty Dolan is signing, maybe just a rumour we'll see. For me we need, 2 centre Half's, another versitle full back, another centre midfielder, a wide player and a different option up front. Oh and a keeper! Not asking for much!.

Matty Dylan Brad walker and a new keeper supposedly done deals. I'm hoping it's wrong but we do need a keeper.

Not sure about Brad Walker but I still think a new keeper is a must, he does not command his box and a couple of spectacular saves now and then is easily cancelled out by howlers at the other end of the scale.

It ties in with the HUST record of what Raj said about having experienced players currently at League 1 and League 2 clubs lined up. Walker isn't getting much of a look in at Port Vale since they were promoted. He's had a pretty mixed time of it with injuries and motivational issues since he left Pools 6 seasons ago, so I'm struggling to see how he's a better bet than the players we've already got?

Dolan isn't a regular starter this season for Newport. On the other hand he's played centre back more often than not in the last 3 seasons and is a quality footballer. Hope this one happens.

Dolan centre half? He's not big enough, as is Ferguson and Shelton.

He played centre back for Newport over 30 times two seasons ago and was voted their player of the season. They did alright with him there - got to the League 2 play off final at Wembley

Alex Cairns is the goalkeeper from league one signing.

Right good luck Bluestreak. Won't enter the fray this time. Interesting and it would have been a bit better if The Stags had been de-rutted.

I can hear the chant now from the NWC ......."Youll never beat Brad Walker"
Matty Dolans mum works in the Health Centre a reliable source in "Eskimo Joes" told me.
