I think this will turn out to be very good signing i was hopoing for, well done managers and chairman. Squad shaping up nicely now, not many spots to fill if any, Simon, Michael, Billy & Greg will cause opposition all sorts of probs think. Again with Lewis and Luke now club have done well COYS.

2 bits of great news, Luke Allen looked impressive against Barnet on Tuesday and should be a good signing, and Charlie Gorman has left the club! Not sure what he bought to the team. Oh yes I am, nothing! Danny Green a far better player, What about the v quick black lad who played up front against Watford first half and in second half against Barnet, he looked v strong and quick? Would be a great signing IMO

Kieran Bishop? 32 in 53 games for Ware in the 2013/14 and 2014/15 seasons before he moved to AFC Hornchurch last January. Nothing like as prolific there, for whatever reason. Very quick, though.

Ben Martin?? Would be a good addition at free kicks and corners but that's about it. If we wanted to be a Charles Hughes 'percentage' team then sign him up but if Jimmy was thinking that way he let a better much younger player go in James K. I am not on the inside and will back Jimmy's judgement but cant help feeling we have dropped a bollock with James K.

I imagine Martin is only with us to gain fitness, and with Jimmy helping him out after his release from Wood. Centre-half wise, we have Lampe, Locke, Coms (Who it seems is set to play there now) and also Longe-King between the first and reserve teams... No room for Martin in that IMO.
James K fell into the trap of believing his own hype, and let down the club off the pitch, which possibly put the managers off. However, if he gets his head down at Dunstable, hopefully he will live up to his ability, as he does have bags of potential.

Is squad finished now?

Jimmy has said he wants a squad of 17/18 (plus, I would've thought the likes of Longe-King, considering he'll probably be loaned out or go between reserves and first team), so I would've thought there is maybe room for two or three more players? One of those will probably be a striker, either Ngoyi or Bishop?

He won't play for Dunstable, he'll sign for Concord Rangers, you heard it here first....

Kaloczi actually captained a very strong Dunstable Town side in their El Creaseyco game against AFC Dunstable yesterday. Perhaps they can't afford his transfer fee?

Well I know Concord are looking at him because I know one of their commitee and he's been asking me about him, he's not on a contract at Dunstable, just forms so could leave on a 7 day approach

Post by Boomer on Jul 19, 2015 20:06:41 GMT
I don't think so. He was on contract with us and, I understand it, was offered terms of re-engagement, which he clearly turned down. Whoever wants to sign him from us, I would think would/will have pay for the privilege. 7 day notices don't come into the equation.
All a bit reminiscent if the Inih Effiong/Boreham Wood fiasco at end of the 2010/11 season.

Is Greg Ngoyi a definite for the coming season? I thought he was still hoping for a contract, but nothing's yet been agreed?

Correct, he hasn't signed, and looks to be fighting with Bishop for a space in the squad at the moment. Greg has disappointed so far this pre-season, in my opinion, looks off the pace.

Backward step. We need balance on the left, a left winger/wing back (or play Chappell there, where he wants to play, and bring in a left back) and we need a proven goal scorer . I don't think we need Ben Martin.

No idea if he'll be signing... He played for Wealdstone on the weekend.

Post by jj123 on Jul 22, 2015 15:43:42 GMT
Why are we even considering re-signing this guy?
The same player who left to join one of our biggest rivals?
He doesnt really offer an improvement on what we have?
Cannot understand it - would rather see a more commited 18 year old instead of him

Post by giloboy on Jul 22, 2015 15:57:02 GMT
I agree he won't bring any improvement to our defence, we already have James Comley, Darren Locke, Jack Lampe and Longe-King.. Who now will probably be forced out on loan.

Post by Saint on Jul 22, 2015 16:08:31 GMT
I agree also.
Jimmy post match did reveal that Lampe wont be fit for the start of the season, however, and seemed to possibly suggest that part of the thinking is get Martin in to help out while Lampe is absent... Whether that's the full story, who knows.

What a ridiculous thread. How can anyone possibly pass judgement or otherwise, unless they are in full possession of the situation and facts? I know one thing - James Gray and Graham Golds are. I very much doubt that anyone else on here will be.

I very much doubt that anyone else on here will be. Just to clarify that this post was in response to the original 'Ben Martin' post/thread only, started by jj123 about an hour ago (which has since been moved on to this 'Playing squad 2015/16' thread), otherwise it is going to make little sense. No qualms about anything at all posted previously on this thread.
