Zak Goodson from Basford United is one I'd like us to sign. We've got Moore and Kavanagh, plus Warwick coming through. We need a starter who WILL get 10 goals partnering JCH, somebody like Matt Godden, Ladapo, Madden or Akins. Maybe there's someone in L1 or 2 we can tempt for little or no fee !?

I quite like Moore, but both him and Kavanagh failed to shine out on loan in non-league. Goodson is a different type to both of them and looks a very good prospect. Within a year or so I reckon he would be pushing for a place in the first team matchday squad. Jonathan Afolabi and Josh Bohui are a couple of good strikers released by Southampton and Manchester United respectively. I'd be prepared to offer David Nugent a 2 year deal and reckon he could have a Wally Walters type of impact, whether he would be interested or affordable is another matter. Bassala Sambou from Everton wants to play first-team football next season and is attracting interest from Championship and League One clubs apparently.

We signed Matt Taylor in the Conference. I wonder if we would have signed him had we been in League 1 or even League 2 at the time. I don’t know but whereas we used to sign a lot of non league players now we don’t. I’d like to think we’ve got a transfer policy but I suspect it’s a bit more random although GC does seem to be going for more established players. I’m sure some will say our policy is sign Coventry City players and it must seem like it at the moment. And so long as they are good players who improve us I don’t really mind. UTG!

I wonder whether he would have developed the same way, in any case. He didn't start that great with us. However sad it was that we went to the Conference, starting there and working their way up, seemed like a great way for that squad to develop and grow together.

Exactly. We may have been in for him as well, anyone confirm that?
Just before anyone gets upset about us 'never signing non-league talent'
His name sounds quite "piratey", he would've fitted in well at the Gas 😁 Ha ha! can't wait to sign Roger Jollie.
