Have we signed Jalal ...... otherwise our oldest other keeper is 11?
I never know which is best, new signings or stability. Halifax had hardly a player on their books a couple of weeks before the season last time. I thought they'd be bottom for sure, but their last-minute signings gelled immediately and they were soon clear at the top of the table. But when Tim Flowers saved Solihull from relegation he largely stuck by the same team and almost got them into the EFL the following season. Harrogate have built around a nucleus of players and they've made it all the way to the EFL..........
I do think we missed a trick though with Kosylo released by Fylde, where he'd failed completely. Altrincham have grabbed him. He scored and created loads of goals for Halifax a couple of seasons ago. EFL clubs from the Championship down were watching him, but I think the smaller clubs didn't move, because they thought they'd lose out to bigger names, and in the end no one moved, and so he ended up at Fylde and I think he's been a bit disappointed. He's class and he'd have been FREE!
I hope I'm proved wrong, but I think we have one squad place taken up a by a real waste of time in McKay. If he can't make the team we may as well loan him straight out and get someone in who can genuinely challenge for a place.
