    January is a difficult time to recruit if you don't bother though whilst selling half your team it makes the summer very difficult to get right.

    We can only sell them if someone still wants them.

    Yeah of course I mean it would be very difficult to buy players of that quality and get into the play-offs but if we keep searching the lower leagues like we have and will continue doing, we can undoubtedly find the players to give us 'relative' success

    I agree mate it will be a challenge as it always is but the recruitment process will already have started for next season and the club are used to signing large numbers of players (like we had to do last summer). A lot of work ahead but I'm confident we'll get it right. We saw a few new faces in May last year; hopefully the same will happen again. And if we're lucky, one of two of those 'fringe players' may impress enough to get into the first team set-up

    I think many clubs will be after Roberts, and potentially MacDonald and Yiadom. Why would clubs no longer 'want them'? Their performance levels haven't dropped off, so they're likely to be sought after. I hope it isn't the case, but it probably will be
