I guess more to come as he did promise some exciting news How can you still come on here and think to be taken seriously after you openly admitted to being a WUM? Btw I wouldn't necessarily say this is "exciting" but I'm still chuffed we've signed some experienced players early on. Jury will be out from me on all signings this summer though, as I've been let down too many times by supposedly decent signings.

Perhaps keeping the strikers details back just in case we're gazumped, or we're going to announce 4 more signings tomorrow! If you want established goal scorers, you’ve got to put good contract offers in and wait. I don’t want us to wait all window and end up with not what we want but equally it’s unlikely we’ll sign the ideal striker this early on in the summer. Alternatively, with a full pre-season, better coaching and decent service maybe Brandon and Jonah could be what we're looking for. Add Daly and Nicholson to the mix and maybe League 2 will be in for a nasty shock! On the other hand.......

I promise to play nicely from now on and not to be disrespectful to some of the tools on here Sorry - edited a typo, I meant disrespectful.

Looks like we have added a bit of northern tenacity to the side

Perhaps, but after being relegated in part due to a lack of goals from the aforementioned, you’d be a brave man to take that risk. Giving those players an experienced figure to play off of might actually help them in their development as footballers.

The height of the players is an interesting one. It could mean nothing and not have even been a factor but take a look. How much input do we think Tommy had in these then? No Cov connections and plenty of Everton/Fleetwood/Accy/North West from what I can see. Interesting Stimpy.

Glad to see some early business , but I’m not going to get excited by any signings until I see how they perform , I got sucked in last season with all the so called good signings and we all know how that turned out ...........

Four new names ... As a few have said I only knew of Coutts but no harm in that at all.
Very sad though that the usual suspects who bleat when there is no news cannot wait to knock the people as they come in the door. ‘Fans are saying this fans are say thing that’ ... who cares FFS.. Clean slate until they play for us.

Finley's record is almost as 'good' as Joey's

Yozzer Hughes, nearly 250 appearances at AS and all concerned sorry to see him go. Sounds exactly like the commanding centrehalf we have been missing.

I'm not going to knock these signings, nor am I lavishing praise on any of them either as I've called it wrong on signings too many times.
As far as I'm now concerned any player has to prove themselves and I'll not praise or condemn any signing until I see what they deliver on the pitch.

I agree with you, I’m pretty sure Cov fans (plus one or two Gasheads) didn’t rate JCH when he joined us either

I loved this quote:
“We want people that aren’t going to be freaked out by some of the away grounds in the division…”
…because they sure as hell are going to be freaked out by the Mem. 😂

Just wondering why the mix of 1 year and 2 year contracts?

Joey kept his word about getting some signings sorted early, so he's not full of bullsh*t then.

Just wondering why the mix of 1 year and 2 year contracts? age, two over 30 get 1 year deals. Younger get 2. Less of a risk. Sounds like good business to me

Just wondering why the mix of 1 year and 2 year contracts? Age I think. Those over say 30 get a year contract? It's a policy I've heard some clubs adopt.
