Was Josh Wheatley the midfielder who had his goal disallowed.?

From what I seen tonight then I imagine he will be a decent signing, however one game doesn't guarantee anything. I can see why Gray has gone for him, long term one of Beck, Cartman, Caton or Saunders will surely leave as they won't be getting enough game time up front.
When we have 3 strikers we are too light up top. The moment we get a fourth then someone will leave.

Personally I think Beck, Cartman and Caton will rotate / cover each other for suspensions and injuries. Saunders as the back up.
I agree 4 strikers is required to ensure you can rotate a little and cover injuries/suspensions. It's not that I want one to leave it's more it just seems to natural thing.

However from a personal striker point of view being choice number 4 generally means they will last part of the season and then leave. Hence Dowson, Amar etc. leaving when they did.

Most strikers will do it for a while and then move on, I think Beck will be main man again, with rotation of Caton/Cartman hopefully that suits them, however I don't think we can hold Saunders back too much this season.

Or looking at his next transfer targets.

If we're still trialling forwards and defenders then either the trialists won't be deemed better than we have already (in which case they're ready made for Spennymoor), or we'll need to offload players to accommodate them - and players in that scenario often go to Spennymoor.

Quakerz - if you actually attended games and spoke to people you might actually find our facts, rather than spreading s*** on this board.

I have to say that a lot of credit should go to the board/volunteers/players/management for last night. I wasn't particularly looking forward to it, but really enjoyed the spectacle.

Enjoyable game, arena wasn't actually too bad (I'm not saying I want to move there), the price of the car park wasn't over inflated, decent crowd, relationship established with DMP. Well done to all involved

Fingers crossed that is the last time we'll ever have to play there again. Been a real shame the last 2 pre-seasons we haven't been able to play home games due to the pitch being redone.

IMO Saunders would benefit from going on loan to an Evostik club where he can get regular starts rather than sit on the bench and get on the pitch for 15-20 mins at the end of the match.

Same for me! Brought two friends who had a great time, been on about how they want to attend more games this season.

20 minutes at the end of a game is exactly what Saunders does want.It keeps him playing at a higher level and he can tear up tiring defenders.

Two Jordan Richards' on trial with National League North clubs.

How irritating.

Good job they didn't sign for Spennymoor or you might have beaten him to it.
