Wycombe have had their transfer embargo lifted and signed Matthew Spring, Sam Wood and Gary Doherty. Spring and Wood could have done a job I think, but I expect location more than anything is why they've gone to Wycombe.
Chesterfield have signed Sam Togwell. Very steady player at our level.
Exeter have signed Kevin Amankwaah and Pat Baldwin. Amankwaah has always been half decent when I've seen him, doubt whoever we sign to play right back will have his experience or know how at our level.
Southend have signed Anthony Straker and Gavin Tomlin. Straker was highly rated for an Aldershot side that did well last season, although there will be a fee involved for him which rules us out. Tomlin isn't a massive goal getter, and I'd have probably only liked him as an option from the bench for us, but I've seen him play a few times and he's got a good touch and brings others into play well. Think he scored against us on his Yeovil debut on the opening day 3 or 4 years back.
Don't really know what the point of all this has been, suppose it's just to point out that the players are out there, and most are getting snapped up.
...or, on the other hand, the players are out there, and the most desperate clubs are chewing through their budgets early, or the most desperate players are signing early, or the most desperate agents are just trying to scrape together their holiday money...
