    IMHO we are 4-5 key signings away. Still lots of players out of contract and most clubs are in similar position to us....

    Hemings and Hourahaine both exciting young players who have potential.

    As always I have had fantasy footballer manager head on... Possible targets

    Right Backs - Darcy Blake (RB/M), Reece Wabara (RLCB), Jamie Peters (RWB x Ipswich), Jordan Spence (RB x west ham), john otsemabor
    Right Midfield - Chris Burke, Keith Treacy, jermaine Johnson, Ryan McLaughlin, hogan ephraim
    Central Mid - Michael o'connor, David fox, mark fotheringham, Brian Howard, Dickson Etuhu, jack collision, Anthony Wordsworth (Ipswich fringe player.)

    Remember at school if you had Maths first lessen you'd drag yer feet so you' miss most of it....well im sure a lot of these well-off journymen hold back signing for clubs because they just can't be @rsed doing a preseason

    David Fox! No thanks, can't see us paying enough wages to most of those for them to sign either

    Some decent players on that list but I can't see us being able to afford the majority. I wouldn't take any former players on personally (Fox and Howard) but that said, it's a different manager in a different stage of a players career.

    Spence, Wabara, Burke, Treacy, o'connor would be my favoured 5....

    Spence, promising young full back...
    Wabara another good youngster and can play across back four...
    Burke, creative wide man. X Cardiff and Birmingham City has been playing in Scotland
    Treacy, creative midfield man can play wide or central.
    O'connor, always liked this lad. Box to box midfield man. X S****horpe and Rotherham

    Howard and fox are proven quality at this level but need games and fitness...
