Re: Transfer targets
151Imo think we need central defender / right /wing back / 2 midfielders / 2 strikers perhaps awide man
So, seven players needed then? That'll be interesting. In all my years watching County, we've never recruited anywhere near that number.owlsabout wrote:Imo think we need central defender / right /wing back / 2 midfielders / 2 strikers perhaps awide man

Edit: Other than the reformation of Newport AFC.
In very recent past seasons, at this stage, we had only about 8 players on the books. We're much more prepared now, even if it means another mid -table finish.Exile 1976 wrote:excessbee wrote:So, seven players needed then? That'll be interesting.

Really? 2015/16 Butcher brought in a minimum 11 players. As did Feeney the following season.

Midfield / Striker not many out there.
Luke Coulson of Ebbsfleet is a winger who can score and assist has provided many goals for prolific Danny Kedwell a potential striker ? Do not judge a striker by his age ask Akinfenwa and Ellison !
When you put it like that we probably have a fair bit to thank Butcher for; 2 of them sold for big fees and 1 on the cusp of the first team. No manager in the last 10 years before or since has really given youth any sort of chance - makes you wonder where our priorities should be.excessbee wrote:I'm wrong on that one. However, Butcher was a different scenario as so many of the previous squad had departed. We certainly won't be bringing in seven who would get a starting place. Previous experience says that two or three 'first teamers' and a chance on a couple of inexperienced loanees would be par for the course. TOE and Reynolds would also come into consideration.
Edit: Butcher plugged the gaps (numerically) by putting four(?) academy lads into the starting eleven, Collins, Owen-Evans, Parcelle and Poole.
I disagree Jolly was not good enough at L2 level both us and Wimbledon found that. I accept he may have lost confidence at County but he has done nothing since his NL days for us were the peak is his ability / career.pembsexile wrote:I don't think Christian Jolly became a crap player in L2. I think what happened was that he had a complete crisis of confidence for some reason. You don't lose talent or skills but once the confidence has gone, sometimes it is very difficult to get it back. I would have loved to see him continue with us. Sadly it wasn't to be.
