Martin Allen knows the league well too. National league won't be easy this year. Hartlepool and Leyton Orient will do a bit better this season too. Hartlepool especially as I have been impressed by their signings. Liam Noble and Andrew Davies particularly impressive and I think Niko Muir has the potential to score goals at that level and I'm interested to see how he gets on after his 40 goals last season for Hendon. |

Him and Rory at Salford could be pretty good I would think. UTG!
Says a lot about their ambition though.
Lloyd said he left Posh to play more games, he could have done that without dropping into non-league!!

I'm sure the £4k per week had nothing to do with his decision. |

I guess its nearer to his home city Liverpool but to drop down 2 leagues for someone at his age, if you have that much confidence in your ability like he seems to, is a pretty poor show imo.
I question any players hunger for the game who does do that, and that includes Gaffney. A club like Salford who are chucking money around is the easy option.

Looks like Liverpool are going to sign Allisson. Deal of about £66.8mil been agreed between the 2 sides. I'm thinking of backing Liverpool for the Prem. 5/1 is a very fair price I feel. They were strong anyway but have significantly strengthened over the summer. Man City are 8/11 favourites, I can't see the winners coming from outside of those 2 for various reasons. Man City are the strongest champions we have had in a while, but it has been 10 seasons since the title was last retained by a club, which shows it is no easy feat.

I'm sure the £4k per week had nothing to do with his decision. They’ve just Signed Adam Rooney from Aberdeen too. If they do get promoted, I’m not sure how they’ll get round FFP. |

Apparently the FL Turnover figure includes donations from the owners to the club and injections of equity. www.financialfairplay.co.uk/scmp.php |

I know it's only pre-season and results don't really matter, but...
Walsall 2-0 Ajax
Also, how did they manage to attract a side like that to visit?

I think us fans are getting well and truly raped this season as well We sure are. DC's keeping us going at the moment but one bad season and I think it could get nasty with the AQ's if we don't show ambition with these 2 numbers 9. |
