Can I just say
« on: September 17, 2008, 08:08:53 AM »

well done to the 128 people who turned up to watch the game last night.

I have just read Heathcote's comments that were printed in last nights programme. From those comments I was just wandering who exactly had been signed on contracts in close season?

I know that Colin Little and Greg Young were two of them but can anyone shed any light on the others?

Thanks

I'm gonna hazard a guess and say Dale Johnson and Chris Denham for starters

And by reading the message from GH i'm also gonna guess that the 'some people haven't lived up to expectations' is aimed at Johnson. He does look very laid back and may give the impression he doesn't give a buggar, then again i don't know the lad personally...

Anyone else think the 'extra' training sessions could be a good idea ?

I think that's just Johnson's style. He looks laid back, but it's not like he doesn't challenge for high balls or ever break into a run. He kind of glides around whereas Denham sprints around like a man possessed, I don't think it means he cares any less though.

I think (correct me if I'm wrong) they were:

Alex Meechan
Lee Elam
Dale Johnson
Kevin Street
Anthony Danylyk
Matt Doughty
Mark McGregor

So, pretty much all the new signings as far as I'm aware. I think we upped the ante in this respect in order to try and attract higher-calibre players.
