Considering we're probably still looking for 4 or 5 players it's all gone very quiet. JB said he wanted 6 signings but that was before the unexpected departure of Thomas, so that would presumably make 7. Less than a week to go and there hasn't been a sniff of a rumour since Balcombe and Quansah signed last week. I’m not overly worried as don’t think we’re good enough to go up this season regardless, two or three signings won’t make a difference. Just hope we aren’t being awkward in the market for the sake of it, will haunt us if we go on a poor run and are left the with the squad we have, it is quality but lacks depth. I was thinking that which was brought on by seeing clubs below us strengthening. I see Cambridge have made some decent signings too

I agree with regards to promotion. Other than Collins & Coburn I don't think any of our squad are top 6 L1 standard. Recent performances have been either patchy or poor. I think you have to go back some time to find a game where we were excellent for the full 90+ minutes. We're also far too easy to score against. That might improve with the arrival of Balcombe and Quansah, time will tell. Hopefully our strike force is good enough to keep us out of trouble but we'll need a few more quality additions to stay in the top half.

Things starting to heat up in L1, rumours of Tom Eaves to Bolton, Ronan Curtis to Blackpool, Sullay Kaikai to MK Dons…. Wonder if Pompey might come to us for a replacement for Curtis? Azza, H Anderson maybe? Why on earth would Pompey be interested in signing H Anderson? You'd also have to hope that A Collins is way outside their transfer budget.

Think there were previous links due to the Cowleys who had him at Lincoln previously, but with them gone I guess their interest did as well

QPR left back Niko Hamalainen attracting interest in EFL. We are desperate a player in this position. Could be us?

Ryan Loft just started following Barrow chairman on Social Media. Could he be off up there?

Ryan Loft just started following Barrow chairman on Social Media. Could he be off up there? He could do with some game time so he can improve his game . He’s a useful battering ram though for the last 10 mins of games , so would still quite like to keep him as an option off the bench .

Loft has a poor first touch not particularly good in the air little goal threat much prefer the sill set of Marquis. League Two standard at best.

Has been a liability when coming on as a sub lately .... giving away needless free kicks and adding very little threat. Will happily drive him to Barrow if its a permanent.

Surely we have to hear some news today? I assume Joey will be on presser duties with Sam Frost this afternoon. No way we get more than 3 incomings now though.

Sean Maguire of PNE available for transfer. Wide Forward, could be of interest…
