When's Jimmy coming back...

Think ive saved around 40 pages of this thread right there...

Id guess with what players we already have signed up this will be one of the quietest pre seasons we will have at Walsall.

All the pre seasons at Walsall are quiet right up until 5 days before the first league game. :lol:

I think you're right though only really a goalkeeper and centre back needed at the moment. At least until the bids start to roll in for some of our players. :(

Given the way we went about our transfers last year, I'd expect us to be taking a long look at Clucas a Hereford right winger who has had a great season, Anthony Malbon and Gash at Kidderminster both out of contract (I think) and both have scored a few this year. I'd also want us to be taking a look at Morecambe striker Jack Redshaw, who had a better goals to minute ratio than Tom Pope this season. 4 young lads, playing at a lower level with potential, shouldn't be too expensive.

This summer is likely to be a bit different in that Richard O'Kelly is no longer our assistant manager. Based on that fact, I'll be very surprised if we see (m)any signings from non-league, aside from Omari Sterling-James.

Can I be the first to hysterically claim any new signings are rubbish if they're from a lower league, prior to me seeing them play.

I may as well attack the club's lack of ambition while i'm at it.

We can be a bit more picky this pre-season.

Malbon and Gash are great shouts - Don't know much about the other two but I'm sure Deano has got a decent sized list of players he wants to look at. Agree that Omari SJ is looking like being offered a contract.

Why are we talking about other clubs players? They are nothing to do with Walsall. Just don't QUOTE me on that.

I think we should sign all Wolves players, but on league one wages. Romp the league to show them how they should be managed, then do the same in the championship the season after.

Rhys Evans has been released by Exeter.......He was a very competant league one goalie. But once again there will be stacks of players out of work and maybe more wanting to be a part of the good football being played at Walsall. I think some players were put off by the prospect of a relegation battle where as now there will be more glory seeking "Febians" avalaible.

Headline of the year from the Kidderminster Harriers official website:
REDS TIE DOWN GASH.

So that's either a new contract or they've all been to the Clent Hills in the dark.

There's plenty of other gash we will end up with. Like Fishley Park.

Not sure that signing Kiddies' Gash is the sort of image we should be going for.

Has he ever played against Craig Pead? "...and now here's Kiddies' Gash being chased by Peado..."

Lee Butcher has been released as Orient's back up keeper, there fans thought he was more than decent and shouldnt have been released. According to one I've spoken to, he spent a month on loan at Orient when Smith was there. Don't be surprised to see him rock up at the Bezzlar come July.
