Can’t see Cam leaving to Peterborough. If he leaves it would surely be to an established championship team, not a team we are likely to be playing again next season!

The Branagan of 2 seasons ago would of walked in to nearly every championship club but judge him on last season solely and you would have to say league 1 is his level. I reckon he will stay and try and get back to his capable level of performances.

Let’s not forget he didn’t play as much last season, because of a freak eye problem, that luckily was caught early, and potentially saved his sight in that eye.

I think we will see the Cam from a season or two ago. Looking forward to it, and even with the lack of transfer activity I still think we are in a good place, and only need a couple of additions.

That might be true of the first 11 but we’ll very quickly be in a bad position with a couple of injuries. Plus we should be aiming to be better than last season. I think most people agree the league will be a bit stronger but also if we want to achieve the aim of promotion we have to be better than the last couple of seasons where we’ve come up short of that goal.

Of the players regularly playing at the end of last season we‘ve lost:
Ruffels at LB
Atkinson at CB
Lee at RM but signed Ryan Williams
Shodipo at LM but signed billy Bodin
Barker at LM you could say that Cooper coming back covers this area too.

It’s at the back where we’re short of cover as we were last season and that cost us. Hope we sort that out in the next few weeks

Lets see how the squad looks when the window is due to close before we ship out any of our rising stars, if so be it, then I hope we have an immediate recall clause.

I expect a few will go out on loan, Goodrham indicated as much in a recent interview.
I wouldn’t be surprised if Elechi went back to OCFC if we sign both Seddon and Tomlinson.

Again it’s a fine balance between them being around our first team squad, some of them are already running rings round their more senior counterparts in training, or developing elsewhere.

It’s important that we build a side that develops together, we already have a good nucleus that have been together for a while. Our fans and youngsters have to trust our coaches on this one.

As I have indicated before I hope we don't become over-reliant on signing too many other teams players on loan. From a personal point of view a couple of wingers would be sufficient, as for any defenders needed they can be addressed by permanent signings.

How do your comments make sense?
Of course Brannagan would be ahead of Clare.
But how can that mean Brannagan can't possibly be leaving if he has a release clause in his contract? A release clause means that if a club comes I for him and he wants to go we can't stop him.

Jeez, lighten up it was joking based on KRs quote.

Yes, but where's the pace and power coming from that Blackpool highlighted was/is so absent from our play? I agree that we're short at the back and a quality left back is top of the list but our midfield is not as robust as it needs to be. I don't see any leaders on the pitch. Maybe that's how the manager likes it.
 
So….. required: replacement left back and cover for left back. Cover (or first choice) centre back. Robust midfielder. Two wingers (KR’s words)
Still required: er ….. see above.
“We’ll get our business done early this season.”
Yup.
