Chris Conn Clarke retained under contract at Fleetwood

He signed a new one upon his return from us, if I remember correctly.

Must have been a two year one eh?

Lucas covolan released at port vale

Isn’t he a bit of a loon? (red card wise), starting to get injury-prone and over 30?
Wondered about covolan, mad red on day one of the season and benched for the second half of the season. Not for me.

Hinchcliffe at Stockport is out of contract and if Stockport get promoted they may look to upgrade at GK. He deserves to be a number 1 somewhere imo, why not here with a learning (and fully capable on his day) number 2 in Ollie Byrne. I consider Matt Gould a emergency cover/GK coach. Any other clear leader in that mould would do though, it's clearly what we need in the back 5/6

Hinchcliffe is a very good shout indeed although the substantial drop in money he'd be looking at could be a stumbling block.

Completely agree it's an area we need to strengthen but I just don't see us paying three full-time senior goalkeeper wages.

Agreed, which is why perhaps this is one area of the pitch where we potentially still see utilisation of the loan market.

I think Ollie needs a loan move to the NLN; Chester need a goalkeeper.

That's not going to be a problem if we concede as many goals next year. If we do, and without three or four marquee forward signings who each have goals in them, most probably, we'll be part time in the NLN the season after next.

Was Haughton at Nantwich with Phil? Can we compete with Fylde? I wonder if he does want to come back and play in Trafford.

Also a chance he ends up off to league 2.

Born in Urmston, goalscoring number 10, we're bound to be very interested.
That's the sort of signing we should be looking at imho.

We need a marquee signing to add some oomph into what was a very flat last 6 weeks.

I'd rather than a 17-man squad with Nick Haughton, than 23-25-28 with kids.

We've lost Colclough and Mullarky from last summers squad who were  likely reasonable earners. Let's splash the cash wisely and get ourselves a new talisman.

Will end up at Oldham or even Rochdale but it would be a statement of intent if we signed him.

We got Regan from under Oldham's noses , they may well have different targets as well , but yes if the bigger clubs join the queue expect the (probable) inevitable .
