Hopefully not.

[Get back in yer box!]

JJ and Pooley are two top players, sad to see them go from Salford now we are going full time.
Excellent signings for Alty.  Glad they found a home with you.

JJ in particular is the style of player you will love, leaves it all on the field and runs for fun, very fast.  Came back to his best form at the end of this season gone.

Pooley is cultured and intelligent striker, good team player and passer too.  Only gripe with him is gets knocked off the ball too easily by brutish defenders.  Otherwise, superb.

If he is still available, I would look at signing Craig King too, assuming he is not staying at Salford, great midfielder.

As you know I'm a firm advocate of retaining players where possible - however I hope these lot never set foot inside Moss Lane again.

Looks like we're splashing that investment cash already.

Still waiting on news of that

I think we've had some indication. Why are all these decent players dropping down leagues to play for us?

I know the manager seems like a good bloke, but it can't just be that.

English Rupees talk.

It could be new investment certainly, but Nicky, Reevesy and Goodall weren't on peanuts (so could be that). Hope it is linked to the investment though.

Not necessarily. I was discussing James' options with his uncle a couple of months ago when he told me James wouldn't be going full-time and it was soon apparent that there was a reasonable chance he could sign for us. When you weigh up his options they were probably us,  Stalybridge and Stockport. We couldn't see him being interested in travelling over to Southport or Chester and there aren't many other part-time options in the local area.

JJ is probably down to the manager as being based further south there were probably quite a few more teams to choose from.

It's really refreshing to see players coming here due to an ambitious young manager

Who cares what we are paying them as long as we perform.

This is it. For the first time in a long time it feels like we actually have a proper strategy as to the squad we are building, it's a good blend thus far of youth, experience and quality coming in. It's essential though for me, there's no mucking about next season after consecutive relegations and we still need to know where this new cash is coming from and if any strings are attached to the Chairmans position as part of it.

Stockport train 3 times during the week (unless they have a midweek game, but then obviously he'd be involved in that), which might have ruled out Stockport with his scouting commitments for City.

Having said that, I assumed he'd end up somewhere like FCUM - in the advent of Salford City they seem to have gone awfully quiet over in Moston 

[Cheadle Hulme Alty]

James and all his family are massive City fans, don't think there was any chance of him signing for FC!
