another defender still to sign? 08:56 - Aug 25 with 4713 viewsb1079blue

iirc Cook intimated that we may not have the captaining the building a few weeks ago and Burgess gas not been given the captains arm band are we expecting any more signings?

Ah, you meant at the back. I agree. Donacien is an ample 5th choice - I think we’re a midfielder light so wouldn’t be surprised to see a CM who can operate at CB if called upon ala Crooks.


The squad rules are a little more complex

Squad Lists
43.9.1 Clubs shall be permitted to name up to a maximum number of Players in their Squad
List based on the following provisions:
(a) in respect of Championship Clubs, 25 Players of which a minimum of 8 must be a Home Grown Player; and
(b) in respect of League One and Two Clubs 22 Players of which a minimum of 8 must be a Home Grown Player.
43.9.2 The following Players do not need to be included in the Squad List to be eligible to play in League Matches:
(a) in respect of Championship Clubs, any Under 21 Player (save for any Under 21 Player who is registered with the Club on a Temporary Loan Transfer); and
(b) in respect of League One Clubs and League Two Clubs:
(i) any Under 21 Players; and
(ii) goalkeepers.

Agree, I think they'd want those three out if they can move them on.


I know Kenlock is widely regarded as surplus to requirements among fans, but he does seem to have not only been dropped, but rather thrown down hard by Cook. Do you know if there is any reason for this, or is it purely down to the fact that he's seen as not very good?

Sorry, didn't see this. I think it's just he doesn't rate him and putting a bit of pressure on him to move.

I believe this is the case (pedantically i think it's 21 and over).

We're at capacity with
VINCENT-YOUNG Donacien
COULSON Penny
BURGESS EDMUNDSON Woolfenden Nsiala
EVANS HARPER Carroll Nolan
BURNS EDWARDS FRASER Aluko Chaplin
BONNE Pigott Norwood

Barry and Dobra are "under age"

This doesn't include Jackson, Kenlock or McGavin

So if we are to bring in a defender we'll have to move someone on or leave them out of the squad but continue to pay them. Nsiala or perhaps Donacien seem the obvious contenders.


Regarding this, it seems to have moved to 22 outfield players from the 20 initially announced. This from the regulations (home grown means come through the ranks at clubs in England or Wales):

Squad Lists
43.9.1 Clubs shall be permitted to name up to a maximum number of Players in their Squad
List based on the following provisions:
