Updates! I can finally add a "wingers" section to the squad list after the announcement today that we've signed Jamie Menagh and Billy Hasler-Cregg. Two young wide players that both look promising, they go straight into the side for the purpose of the thread but do we all expect them to be starting?

I wasn't sure who to partner Jake Moult with in midfield but I went with Charlie Joyce in the end. That's who I think Neil Young will go for. Who do you all think should start in the centre of the park?

Call me an old stick in the mud, but I might wait until they've played a game for Alty before I decide...

Of course things will become a lot clearer after a few friendlies, but there's still grounds for debate even at this stage. How do people feel about Simon Richman? Should he keep his place in our eleven? Do some people maybe want to see us play five in midfield next season, three in the centre?

Just trying to keep the forum chains moving is all.

Iv no idea what the 2 new midfield players are like,but I would be disappointed if atleast one of them wasn't better than Richman

IMO, no. Energy levels very good but distribution of the ball very poor. Certainly a squad member but not a regular starter.

[andrewflynn]

I agree with both of you. It's going to be Moult and one other, like Jimmy said, you'd hope that one of Neil Young's signings is at least technically better than Richman. Maybe not physically, but that's where he'll play a part as a good squad player.

Whats the latest

[hsmith1]

looking at your pitch, have we only got 12 players,if so where are all the rest NY had lined up?

Three more have signed. I don't think the OP lives on this forum to update it though... 

[andrewflynn]

Sorry all, been busy.

Fifteen on the books now and we're barely into June. Can't argue with the way in which business has been done so far and I'm really eager for the season to start. It looks like we're building a squad of young, determined players who will give us some fight to cheer for. Hope that's the case.

Cyrus goes in alongside Hannigan at the back. Hobson goes up front alongside Reeves at the expense of Lawrie. Opens up a good debate - two up front this season? Or do we pack the midfield and go with Reeves on his own?

[taxi Phil]

Having heard what NY had to say about James Lawrie, I reckon he's a certain starter in the hole behind Reeves and Hobson. Hasler-Cregg may have to satisfied with starting from the bench, at least to begin with.

To be honest, I sincerely hope Hobson is our 'Kyle Perry option' off the bench.

[PukkaPieman]

He may be our "Hobsons choice" 

[MarpleAlty]

Michael Rose (Stephen's brother) would be a brilliant signing at left back if he hasn't got any full-time options on the table
