Wouldn't be suprised if jack redshaw and josh askew end up here next season Chester couldn't afford the likes of Redshaw and Askew Hmm

I see we may be playing Farsley Celtic next season. They've gone bump twice before and likely win Evo Stik Prem on crowds of 275. Don't they ever learn?

You seemed well informed on Anthony Dudleys contract as well if I remember correctly. Do you know if we will be having Chatwins pies at the kiosks next season?

I'd like Dudley to stay but I don't think it's a disaster if he goes.
Clever player, but gone well of the boil and does tend to go missing in games.

Think we also need to be mindful of the budget we will have. I believe it is being set against 1350 average home gate, so approx £240/250k. Any donations from SM to playing budget will then be added when pledged.
Can't buy steak on corned beef money.

I’d welcome some fringe players from a team challenging for the title in the league above! We would be lucky to get any Salford cast offs given we aren’t full time and they’d be taking a big wage drop.

The day Chester becomes little more than a Salford subsidiary is the day I’ll give up on them. I found last year’s excessive reliance on Salford and Ramsbottom somewhat embarrassing, and suggested a lack of scouting ability in the Managers. If winning at all costs was a prerequisite of following a football club then I doubt anyone would ever have followed Chester. Chester is a lovely city, in a lovely part of the world, and any dependence on another town or city is not acceptable to me. I can’t speak for others.

I hoped that was more to do with where the club was at, they signed lads they knew they could trust to avoid second relegation with a view to making additions during season

The Managers said last night that they are just waiting for the go ahead with the buget so we will know if we are able to adopt the Hybrid model , I think they said if we get the go ahead they would be taking up to ten youth players into the squad with the 6 or 7 retained and new players they bring in. I think I got that bit right they are very keen to work with the young lads full time.

I suggest that relegation avoidance was your target, not theirs.

The fans would have turned away. Would you have the same problem if we get players from Fleetwood or Forest Green? Like it or not, teams like Salford and these are the short term future. They are well funded and have more players than they need . It's similar to taking youth players released from other clubs. Which is precisely what we do every year.

The opinion of a couple of the players last night was they all wanted to go up but if we had it would have been a struggle next season, if we change our playing model next year and have a real big push at going up we will be much better equipped to do well the season after.

I used the words “excessive reliance”, and specifically identified Salford and Ramsbottom because of the managers’ former employment with those two clubs. As such, your referenced clubs of Fleetwood or Forest Green make no sense. Whilst I have stuck to facts in respect of the managers quote, your second word “if” is mere supposition or fantasy. As regards your use of the word budget, it takes me back to the days of Burr.

Personally I wouldn’t have had issue if they signed the entire XI from Salford if it won us the league, it’s National League North and having players you know can achieve, that just won the league so of significant quality is a massive bonus. However I am sure they will sign some players who haven’t won the league before just to keep RCB happy.

No issue with managers buying several players they’ve worked with before provided they improve the squad. Harry McNally brought a number of his former Wigan players to Chester and the success of Mark Wright’s team in the 2002-04 period was boosted by him bringing in Bolland and Guyett who he had managed previously. I get the concerns about being reliant on players from Salford etc, but to the best of my knowledge signings like Asante and Jackson had never played for B&J before.

Indeed the likes of a fit Asante and Jackson have outperformed the Burtons and the Shentons.

Bring the age profile of the team down.
