Title: New Players Getting Close
Post by: Jenga on July 02, 2007, 09:17:24 AM
The Sale & Altrincham Messenger reports that "Graham Heathcote is delighted by the commitment shown by his squad after seeing a big turnout at two voluntary training sessions. The Robins' boss organised the sessions in order to ease players back before preseason officially starts on Saturday. And Thursday night's session saw 21 players turn up, including a couple of possible signings. Also among the number was Colin Potts (right), who is hoping to prove his fitness to Heathcote in order to earn a move back to Moss Lane. An announcement on the arrival of Alty's key midfield target has been delayed until Saturday at the earliest but the Alty manager will also be speaking to a winger on Sunday as he looks to add to his squad. The Alty manager said: 'We had 21 down at the second voluntary training session so I was pleased with that, it's a good start. The deal with our midfield target has not quite been completed yet but I'm still positive about it. I will be speaking to a wide man on Sunday but, to be fair, Colin Potts has also looked good in training so far. He's improved his fitness quite a bit'".



I like the sound of a wide man - how wide will he have to be to stop people getting around him?

As long as the midfielder being signed doesn't turn out to be the backward step of taking back Paul EllenderI think we'll all be happy.

That'd be the last thing we need.

The papers said the midfielder has recently left a Conference club I think. Would Boston count as Conference? I guess they were for a few weeks. So who knows he might be coming back.

I still think it will be the Northwich guy.

Wasn't it written somewhere he's based/was based in the West Midlands?

Vics fans are saying if Carr and Charnock were to go they should go for £100k the pair. Anything less shouldn't be considered.

Yes I can see Mike Connetts face now If Stockport offered him £35k for the pair 'Nope triple that or they're staying'

Its not Carr incidentally.

Thought it might have been Carr. Ballers seems to have some inside information here.

Come on spill the beans Ballers.
