Wes York signed for, er, York. Always rated him highly - looks like York are going for it next season. Also signed Jordan Burrow. Anyway, on that basis, I look forwards to the arrival of James Chester at the Deva and for trivia buffs are there any other players who have lined up for teams that share their surname? To me York are signing players that have been good in the past but aren't consistent enough to stay in a team, so jurys still out. York is a good player but he's so hit and miss. I personally think we look into the past a bit too much as fans. Like others i find myself thinking Barnes would be a decent enough signing, but then i think, well i've not seen the last in years....same as probably most others saying the same as me. We don't really know in truth. Completely agree about Barnes, OK he was decent enough last time he was here but I think to get excited about his return, shows where we are at the moment.

I think if the Barnes rumour is true, it's at least an idea of the type of personality BM and AJ are looking to bring into the club. Highly determined, industrious and physically fit.
I know nothing of his whereabouts for the last few years, but I couldn't see BB being a bad option to have in the squad.

Jake Kirby, released by Tranmere yesterday. 24 year old central midfielder, just what the managers are looking for. 98 tranmere apps with 8 goals, according to wiki.

Definitely but now we have little money and are part-time, I think players like Kirby will not give us a second look unless they can't get fixed up elsewhere.

One if the most positive things about the new management duo is that they are fully aware that clubs will offer more money than us, but don't care, they still expect players to come on whether they're first choice or 5th choice in that position and be good enough to challenge at the top end. I expect we will see a lot of hard working lads signed

It's just how it is in football. You'll never have more than a few getting signed on first year contracts.

The youth team would have probably beaten the first team this season. They should be proud of their achievements.

I don't know their contract situations but James Poole and/or Jordan Hulme from Altrincham would be great signings. Both worked with the managers at Salford.

Here's one I have heard alabi to Wrexham He’s had more clubs than a Liverpool gangster. Should have stayed here last season and if he’d had a good season he’d got a move to a league club. Now the poor lad has to end up at a joke club like Wrexham who will never be a League club.

Wrexham are a strange one. Every year their performances deteriorate and their crowds increase. How can you explain that, other than there is nothing else to do in Wrexham.

Chris O'Grady released by Chesterfield. He's had better days, he doesn't score many goals. But I would imagine in the Conf North he could do a job and he's only 32. I doubt he was on much as another financial struggler in Chesterfield. Not entirely convinced but could be worth a trial to see what he's got left in the legs, was once a good player. Edit - Can't see us affording it actually. He was rumoured to be a high earner for them. COG has not been released. He's under contract for another 12 months but has been told he can leave on a free if he can agree a deal with another club. He's been absolutely garbage for us. I would drive over to Chesterfield and give him a lift to wherever a new club may be. His contract has come under a lot of debate but it was announced when he signed that he would be our highest paid player ever (Great PR ). Upwards of £4k a week with add ons is the alleged figure.
