I can't tell if we are slow moving for players or everyone else is much earlier than usual. The playoffs aren't even over and there have been a LOT of deals done. Hardly fair on the teams that lose their playoff finals.

The only players that have moved so far that I would've been interested in are Beckford and Paul Anderson. It's still very early days and I'm sure DC has some deals close to completion.

Diamond was marking ellis when he scored 4 wasnt he? He was definitely in their team. I wouldn't have wanted to sign him for us, but he should prove to be a good signing for Mansfield in L2. He might be a very good player its just the one time i remember seeing him was that game!

Alex Lacey was linked to us at one point by the ever reliable (lol) HITC site. Really disappointed we did not go for Lacey ...right age and a good defender with a useful left foot...just what I thought DC was looking for. As usual we are slow out of the blocks. or he knows the big man is coming back from Stoke

For all we know Clarke made a move for him and he chose to go elsewhere. It's the reason why Clarke has multiple targets for each position.

Left footed 6'4'' Crewe CH Jon Guthrie 24yo 130 games under his belt & born in Devizes is joining a so far unnamed L1 club. Far better bet than Lacey.

I think we should start panicking 😉 I can't believe we're gonna have this again for the fourth year running! I predict the forum over the next few months will go something like this: -People moan about DC acting too slowly in the transfer market. -People moan about the signings DC makes. -People moan about us starting the season slowly. -People moan about DC rotating the squad too much. -We have a successful season and end up in the top 6. Have a little bit of patience guys. DC hasn't done too badly the last 3 years

But on that day Wilde also played for Northampton, on loan from Millwall, was taken off after half an hour yet I've seen some people suggest he would be a good player for us. Yet he always looked good for Argyle in the season before. Just as it's a good idea not to buy a player because he had a good game against us so we sometimes need not to rule out players who were not so good against us! UTG!

Mansfield have signed almost a new team within a few weeks! It's incredible isn't it that they have the money to do it. But Steve Evans likes spending other people's money and is a bit of a lower league Harry Redknapp in that respect! Will probably be at the top of League 2 next year on the basis of who they've signed. SE must be going on holiday soon and probably returning day before pre season training. But we know DC is almost the opposite of Evans, prefers a lower profile, likes to get value for money, spends money as if it were his own and the players he brings in will usually not be the big names that Evans likes. Don't like the bloke but have to admit that he often gets results. Remember being behind the dug outs in Feb 13 when he got absolute dogs abuse from our lot, including burgers being thrown at him but Rotherham did a job on us that night and won. John Ward spent the evening shaking his head at Evans' antics and those of his mate, Raynor. They were spoken to by the 4th official all evening but got the points. I'm glad we have DC thank you! UTG!

UTG! Evan is a sh**, but like you say, he gets results. 8 promotions at various levels is quite impressive. His treatment of officials is a disgrace though and the fact he criminally cheated Dagenham out of the conference title back in his Boston days can never be forgotton, and forgiven in D&R's case I would imagine. I wouldn't swap DC for him in a million years. twohundredpercent.net/steve-evans-football-manager-convicted-criminal/
