Would the chinese consider attempting dialogue with GI. With the aim of buying them out?

Any idea what day we may hear of the striker teeboo? not holding you to it i.e if you say thursday and he signs friday i personally won't hang you out to slaughter but it does give us an idea of how close the deal is. I have heard of 1 striker who knill has apparently shown an interest in but not sure how true it is.

I and a couple other mentioned Kieffer Moore as a decent local young striker who we wanted the club to look at. Well he played for Yeovil yesterday scored and has now been signed up by them for an undisclosed fee. Will be interesting to see how he progresses there but can see him going on to bigger and better things. Always good to see a local lad do well specially and old team mate.

Im still here steve. Unfortunately weve missed the boat massively with keiffer and he is currently considering offers from multiple championship sides and atleast 1 premiership side. Saw him a few weeks ago told me torquay had never been in contract although exeter had but he wouldnt sign for them. Closest he came to signing for anybody was bristol rovers until mcghee left and it all cooled from them. He has had a weeks trial with Charlton before the end of the season and they have said they will offer him something, and he has also had contact from west ham. he told me he would like to join a big club and learn in the u21 leagues before possibly stepping down to play first team football.

Thanks for your efforts Danny! sad he didn't get another year atleast as i believe he is good enough to do damage at this level when given the chance. Realistically i don't see us going up next season so Danny would be a decent squad player. Argyle always seemed to like him so he could go there. Either that or back to London somewhere

I make no apologies for mentioning the name again but if its a goal scorer we want to replace Howe. Keiffer Moore honestly could be the man. 20 in 30 in his first season at BSS. 19 years old paignton lad. Being looked at by bristol rovers and from what ive heard southampton! His manager at Dorchester also managed Charlie Austin at non league level and has said that Keiffer has potential to go further than him. Would be massively dissapointed if we don't even offer him a trial as ive no doubt he will go on to bigger and better things and escape from right beneath our noses

I played alongside keiffer in his 3 seasons at sdl div 2 level. he is certainly a quality player. the best striker ive played with and i spent 5 seasons at youth level playing with ex england youth international michael nardiello so there's something to compare. Both quick tall good finisher but keiffer is easily the better player. I honestly do think he could make it at our level and should atleast be given a pre-season trial.

Will the new CB arrive today i wonder... also i wonder if we will see any trialists at the club this pre-season. ling seems happy with his 24 man squad once the CB signs. but surely if he could move a couple out. players like halpin, yeoman loans. mcphee possible loan then we could unearth a diamond in the rough

Any idea of a timespan for when this deal should be wrapped up the roadrunner?

Ellis now gone according to the OS however ling says an announcement could be made later today after he has tracked 3 or 4 new players

There must be some people in the know ie dave and a few other who can shed some light on this. Good signing if it is a done deal in my opinion. Would be good to see midfield options of morris, stevens, lathrope (if he signs) mansell, craig and easton. I can't see eunan being here but you never know he may stay and review things in january.

good luck ash! hope he fulfills the potential shown in the reserve and youth teams. get him on the 7 man bench few sub appearences maybe start him in the jpt

great news hope he signs that answers my last post in another thread haha

Not heard any more. waiting for some news on eunan and damon. Also wondering if any of the contracted players ie halpin macklin mcphee and co will be listed. would keep mcphee for another year cant be on high wages and does a job. Halpin again hope to develop him but if it doesn't happen this coming season get rid. and as for macklin don't be suprised to see him go and turn into another carayol. Honestly believe the talent is there and he has impressed me most times i have seen him play.

Good to see ashley yeoman has earnt himself a new deal. Really hope he makes a good fist of it this season. He looked lively when he came on at home to bradford. I presume he will be 3rd choice striker behind rene and jarvis if atieno leaves 4th if not. interesting to see he could also be used in midfield. Hopefully him and nathan craig can break through this season.
