Phil Jevons when motivated got us 18 goals last season.

We need 3 more signed-up midfielders. I'd like Flemo in the middle plus (speculating) Bencherif, Hackney and Hurst? Drummy and Gaz plus a first-year pro as back-up.

reuben reid and calvin zola both free agents, both good signings! Bencherif + Hackney would be also great signings, am i the only one that thinks hurst was terrible when he was here? change Hurst to McConville and you have got yourself a fantastic team :D

No thanks.

Much prefer Hurst playing in the middle.

Don't forget Flemmo, the lad showed great potential at different stages during the season. I still think he has a great future here given time, and still has plenty of time to improve.

This is where Jimbo is going to have to make some tough decisions. Does he go with what he knows & re-sign players he thinks can do a job, or does he say "no", I'm going to get this player or that player because I can. I think it will be an interesting summer & I hope JB has a few players in mind that have maybe previously gone under the radar.

Definitely a strong figure needed in the midfield like Bencherif. Drummie perhaps has another season in him to pass on his experience and play a supporting role. Then we have Hunter and Fleming and Hurst - who would be great in the middle IMO. Let's get some pace in the wing position he would then vacate.

Keeper - class

Defence - class

Midfield - Not a fan of hurst, think we need a fast winger bencherif - yes fleming - yes hackney - yes

Strike- zola- yes please jevons - maybe but i would prefer a young pacey striker

If we did sign calvin zola we could play 4-5-1 if we could add stanley in the midfield, please please stanners !

Really???

I'm a strong believer that the midfield this year weren't good enough, but I thought the back 4 made too many mistakes even for League 2.I think we need a new right-back if I'm honest and possibly a new left-back as Wilson didn't look like he wanted to stay come the end of the season. That might be different with Jimbo at the helm, but I wouldn't call our defence 'class'!!!
HOWAY THE SHRIMPS!!!!!

On topic(ish) and proud!

Think you're all forgetting about a back-up goalkeeper.
