From McKenna, Possibility of one in one out.
Also mentioned that Hayes wont be off.
So that means, Either the one in has to be under 21 permanent. Or the out has to be someone other than Humphreys or Baggot. |  |

Edwards has gone, which frees up a squad space doesn't it? |  |

It's 25 now with Edwards gone, but including Hayes.
I think a lot of us have been assuming Hayes is off so not counting him | |

Can't imagine Hayes will make the squad if we sign someone else who needs a squad place. | |

Very underwhelming. Ashton said we were looking to improve the starting 11. That hasn’t happened. |  | | |

McKenna just said in presser that he wants 3 keepers available whilst Walton is injured | |

Logical. So we're looking at one on top of Edwards, but not Baggott or Humphreys if we want to bring someone in.
Edmundson or Ladapo? | |

I'd still expect Hayes to miss out should we bring someone in and not let anyone else go. | |

For training. I thought it was clear he meant he wouldn't be in the squad but would be kept for training until Walton is back and then loaned to non league. |  |

I suspect Hayes could be added at a later date if needs be on an emergency basis |  |

Cheer up mate, you'd have only been crying about anyone coming in today as a 'panic buy' come November anyway. [Post edited 1 Sep 2023 15:35]

Sorry but I feel underwhelmed also after listening to Ashton a few weeks back we was told we was going to bring players in who would go into the 11 and improve the team I don't believe this has happened also the model portrayed was to buy young players as we did last year and if they do well sell for a profit not bring in loans to send them back oven ready for their parent club. | | | |

and if those young players aren't available, and at a price which means making a profit is tough? |  |

I think Ashton needs to engage brain before mouth. I can appreciate why dealings have gone the way they have but it doesn't feel like he's met the objective he set a month or so ago. | |

It seems fairly clear from Phil's articles and what McKenna has said that it will be Baggott heading out on loan - hopefully for the season with an option to recall a la Edwards. I presume that this depends on whether we can get a centre back in.
Who is the mystery centre back? Cathcart? Cashin? Someone else? I wonder if Derby would entertain a bid for Cashin if they could have Baggott go the other way on loan. | |

Yeh right taking what Ashton says so literally?!
I'm sure they are frustrated themselves at the obstacles to signing first choices, and possibly have had to rethink re loaning prem youngsters. Saying that, there's no doubt they are doing a decent job and we look in fairly rude health, if a little light in some areas.
Honestly not sure what some fans were expecting, but I suppose if people take Ashton so literally they are due to be disappointed. Do I think Ashton sometimes doesn't do himself any favours? Aye I do, but that's why I don't take everything he says without a punch of salt. But anyway, he brought in McKenna and tied him down to a new deal so plenty of credit in the bank. He represents a net positive to the club, for sure.
And yes, he can be criticised on a football forum... it's the internet innit... but some of the wholly negative stuff coming from certain quarters is tedious. |  |

I think it's more the comments about strengthening the first team. The squad is definitely strengthened but the first XI? More recently he said two or three signings expected and we've signed two since then (as good a signing Williams is I think it was a brilliant move by the club once interest in Leigh firmed up, rather than always planning to bring him in) with potentially one more to come, so that's fair enough. But they seem more geared towards depth than the first XI.
As I said before, fully appreciate why it's gone this way and perhaps Ashton didn't think the transfer market would move the way it has when he made the original comments. | |

I hope not, we would be just as short for experienced cover at the back as now and it would leave us with a wasted spot in the squad. | |

Very true. 4 kids signed who will only play bit parts. 2 signed we had the back end of last season anyway. Poor transfer window. No real improvements at all. |  | | |

Since that interview he's brought in Williams, who will very much improve the squad as he's got a good amount of Prem experience, and Scarlett who should also improve the squad given his pedigree. Whether either will immediately improve the starting XI is another matter, but neither play in positions where we obviously require an upgrade as Hirst, Clarke, and Davis are all very good players. What were you expecting? | |

Williams is an upgrade on Leigh. I think Slicker is an upgrade on Hayes. I can certainly argue Hutchinson is an upgrade on Harness and should have more stamina and impact than Aluko. Scarlett is wait and see but I think his style of play suits us more than Ladapo's. | |
