Revolving door

Post by AwayDayYeltz » 12 Sep 2018, 13:37

Thought I'd start a new thread for this;

I make it, that we've so far signed 26 players this season. It's September 12th!

Agbor
Agustien
Ali
Asa
Baker
Bragoli
Dunkley
Ebanks-Blake
Ekongo
Ezewele
Gilpin
Goddard
Haworth
Hughes
Hurst
Kelly
Lawton
Lewis
MacPherson
Morris
Platty
Rea
Roberts
Suaune
Tonks
Warmer

No comment really. Just an observation, but it does seem an unusually large amount, even for non-league.

When you take into account last season, where we must've signed 60-70 players, we're not far off the 100 mark in just over 12 months!

Which, even being conservative, suggests 50+ 'mistakes' were bought in. I hope my boss is so forgiving.

Which begs a question, how many are still with the club?

We seem to hear about all these new signings, but not those that have left.

I would, at an educated guess, suggest at any one time we'd have a squad of around 15 players. Let's be honest, any player who is willing to be on the bench week in week out isn't quality enough for this level. i.e if you're good enough, you're not going to be content warming the bench for very long.

I notice neither Agustien or Macpherson appear on the squad list on official site.

MacPherson has returned to stourport Swifts. Writing was on the wall when Eubanks Blake was signed, how many has he scored?
From my observation of this level of football the skill in wrestling(which is overlooked as custom and practice by referees) is more important than football skill level.

No disrespect to either player (Hopefully SEB will find form in time), but I would much prefer Agbor over both of them.

James Hurst has already joined and played for Welling United - I can't imagine he commutes to Kent to play his football, so perhaps he's relocated.

You don't move house over night, was this relocation known about before he signed for us?

If he has relocated!
