Just in case these two targets are not a success has anyone got a theory as to who we might go for ? Maybe Bonne or stick with Pigott . I think the Simpson saga has ruled him out but never say never i suppose but with his agent in his ear and looking for a pay day himself i guess it looks unlikely . Any idea's who we might go for or maybe who you would realistically try for .
I think it's trickier than it has been for many years to tell who we might be aiming at. There's a bit more money in the coffers, thus broadening the possibilities. The wide connections of McKenna, Ashton and the backroom team increase the range of players who may be on the radar - even in directions which may not be obvious to us as general observers.
Controversial opinion, but if we can’t secure those two, I’d personally like to see us push some of the youngsters into the fold and develop our own talent, something we were once very good at!
I think we might have to be patient and wait till the end of August, a month after the season starts. The team that finishes a season is rarely the team that starts it

Well all very true but i was kinda hoping that someone might throw a name or two into the pot even if just for fun !

If they're good enough of course... It would be lovely to have a team of academy graduates, but just because they they came from our academy doesn't mean they're good.
I think a lot of people see our academy players as better than they are purely because they're "ours".

Basing this solely on watching the U23’s on Friday night, there are a few amongst that squad who, I believe could do a job and be a core part of the first team this season…

If they were good enough we wouldn’t be looking elsewhere……….
Ryan Hardie looks a great bet to me. Not sure if he's on Championship clubs' radars or not?
Seems to be very calm on the ball, works a chance well and finishes with his head up, and holds defenders off well too. Not too sure how quick he is or what stamina he has, but he looks decent in the air.

That's a good shout, not sure how much we'd have to pay Argyle tho'.

We're still OK at developing our own talent, it's just that it mainly happens at Swindon now :)
