Scott Golbourne was the rumour at the open day. Guessing Clarke has been having a look at Kelly in pre season and decided he is not quite good enough to challenge for a place in the first team this season so has decided to bring in two left backs to provide competition to each other. Getting both Holmes-Dennis and Golbourne would be excellent business.

How much do people think Holmes-Dennis will set us back? If we’re signing SG. I’d expect TH-D to be a loan.

Are we sure we're signing TH-D? I know we were linked with him but why are people convinced he's signing?
Don't know much about Golbourne. What type of full back is he? Any good?

I think Tareiq Holmes-Dennis is a done deal - the hold up was with paperwork at the other end. Our manager always said he wanted two left backs so not surprised if Scott also comes in. Tareiq I suspect if his fitness holds will end up being first choice, but of course he was injured for virtually the whole of last season so bringing in Scott (a very experienced pro) would be smart.

Love it if we got those 2 left backs in. It seems too high a standard to have one of the 2 as back up though based on their CVS.

Did Golbourne used to play for city ?

If these two come in tomorrow, all we’ll need is two strikers and we’ll be there !!! You make it sound so easy lol! One thing I've realised with strikers in particular is not to make too much of a snap judgement. Matty Taylor looked a cheap signing but straight away impressed me. Jamie White looked a good signing but was a disappointment. Gaffney looked a crap signing but turned out to be a very good one. Nichols looked a great signing on paper but has ended up being a great disappointment.

Did he not have a long term injury recently ? Played 27 times on loan for MK Dons last season after joining them in January. Think most of those appearances were during the first half of the season though and he missed a lot of the 2nd half of the season, due to a hip injury. If true, hopefully he is over it now.
