lot of new defenders signed building from the back looks like at least 2 centre halves

could this mean players going ?? could the skipper be off ??

Yeah definitely, I guess you'd have to say it was a problem area last season with the amount of goals conceded. Knight Percival signed now too.

Obviously hoping Lavelle stays!

Understandable signings. Lavelle was our only senior centre back to two new players signed there makes sense. Left back has been a week position even though we have two players there already, so Hendrie makes sense. Three seems too many though, so perhaps one will be shipped out?

Still due at least one right back, a central midfielder and another couple of forwards/attackers.

ok but that's 2 centre halves and a full back we have signed by my reckoning

so we need right back,,, central midfielder,, centre forward ,, and a keeper we need at least

Derek obviously not fancying a relegation battle, season after season and everything starts with a good defensive unit.
Don't think Sam will leave just yet but who knows?

Managers seem to be keen on having specialist left/right sided central defenders these days.

Keeper must be high on the list for me.

5 to come from what Derek has said.

Keeper , right back , 2 midfielders , 1 striker.

One of the twitter sites said we are after David Perkins. Another said we are still interested in Adam May from Portsmouth and a striker Reilly.

We seem to announce 1 every day at the moment to build anticipation so lets see what tomorrow brings.

I hope we bring in a RB from a big club again. They seem to be developed with a bit more attacking ability as we saw with both Tanner and Cooney.

The momentum's building and Derek's just getting started.

He must have a good agent to keep getting a second (/third/fourth ) chance

Played against us in DA's first game as our manager but was taken off in the second half after conceding a penalty.
