Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Couple of strikers, winger, maybe a midfielder, and a defender away from a complete squad? Not bad movement. Wonder how Nelson Abbey is getting on? PO'C's pace could be an issue so Abbey, or another faster CB could be useful.

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Wareham, Wifi, and Craig all leaving is definitely ringing the alarm bells, especially as it's to similiar/worse teams & if they do leave we'll still need to sign someone to replace them. Bad miss by the recruitment/ownership. FWIW Wifi was at the ground yesterday - or someone of a similar heigh...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

In all credit to him - he said 1 senior player has accepted a contract which would be announced today, which has happened. He's made a few testable claims to keep an eye on - Wifi and Wareham to other L1 clubs (which would set off major alarm bells for me), Senga and Akande offered contracts since b...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

That should silence the critics. Especially when they find out he is ex-Reading Stevens spent his formative years based in Newbury, and enjoyed a year at the John Madejski Academy just over a decade ago, combining his studies with further football opportunities. It was at this point he caught the a...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

4 working limbs, well known to the coaches and 100+ appearances at this level. Not sure what else you could ask for.

Re: Rumour - the Yak back

Nice Lost Files photo of a former player posing with a ballboy on twitter this morning...

I can only assume we've signed the ballboy on a 1+1 deal.

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Preseason starts this week.

Would be good to be able to at least be able to put out a contracted XI by Thursday.

Re: Rumour - the Yak back

It's in a position where we have next to nothing, so perhaps worth the risk. I saw some fans on Twitter talking up Rinomhota, when I'm not convinced he'd get into our team. If I’ve understood correctly he was utterly underwhelming at CM for them, switched to RB and then won players pots. Cardiff fa...

Rumour - the Yak back

https://x.com/EdRyding/status/1936081572454711507 To be honest I can see this happening, and providing we offer very sensible money I think it's a no brainer - we know he can score, we know he'll fit in and given his torrid past few years he's probably keen to get back somewhere where he can feel so...

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Given Savage is front and centre of the kit launch I'd be very surprised if the club were involved in negotiations to sell him. I'm not sure I have any concrete examples, but I'm sure that's happened before. Maybe Long? The media people aren't going to be party to transfer discussions. To some exte...

Like that a lot - & I'm liking having a normal kit then a slightly more out there one.

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

We've got an auto promotion level midfield and goalkeeper under contract. Fascinating to see the calibre of the rest of the signings - if we are similar strength to last year with an out and out striker all year we'll go up. The other big thing is that he definitely had good championship offers - he...

Re: Pre-season 2024

Based on the results and performances we've seen in pre-season, I do wonder if we could be a bit of a dark horse this season. I'm not suggesting we're going to get promoted, but the betting odds have us thirteenth. I've not been keeping much of a tab on the rest of the division so far, so it's poss...

Re: Rival Watch

Its good there's another decent side in the league which will hopefully stop Hollywood FC going up. And stop Reading FC too. Really doesn't help us having Bolton in L1 next year. Don't think we are in serious contention anyway, unless we make some clever signings. Playoff form for most of the year,...

Re: Ex Players

Very pleased for Liam Kelly Talent wise he was good enough for the Championship. There was obviously some sort of attitude or mental health issues earlier in his career. Fair play, he looks to be moving beyond them and he has absolutely dominated the play offs. Difference maker in semi final and fi...

Fingers crossed Spurs win then. It'll be our only chance for a while to check out the new stadium.
