It'sa results business we'll have to wait and pass judgement once we see the results of his signings and actions.
The Amos link worries me its not a backup we want for Amos its a replacement in my books based on last season I hope he hasn't made a bad call coming out with that one. We've not been much cop between the sticks since somebody let Fred leave.
He has 3 signings up to now ,nothing but promotion back to the championship will do for me,
And then he can prove himself in the championship in his last contracted season.
Too soon to form an opinion on pp. Have to see a few games first and i will certainly let my opinion be known.Re amos hoping a trip to specsavers and a new goalkeeping coach sorts out his weaknesses. He was ok when he first came but like most players under lennons coaching staff regressed.over time.
If we are hoping for promotion in his first year i think we will be disappointed although I hope that he can manage it.
We have yet to see what is going to happen regarding the embargo and then we need to see Ken and Dean reaching down into their pockets to see if there is any more than loose change down there.
Although we will have three new players, with the departure of the underperforming and overpaid players and a couple of promising youngsters being let go, I don't think we have enough players to cope with the number of games that we have to play.
Don't forget, Davies, Madine and Clough to name three, had long spells of injuries during the last campaign. We were threadbare then, so what is the prospect for the upcoming season if we can't bring in numbers of decent players?
The squad. Here's my take on it with what we have now. Starting 11 in a 4-4-2 possibly diamond.
Amos
Wilson holding Beevers money
Mavies spearing pratley Taylor
Clough marine
Back up. Need a keeper as only Amos and Jussi jnr who is not ready. Full backs. Weak there. No cover at all for moxey and square pegs derik and vela cover for rb. Centre back cover is dervite, derik and young Finney so reasonable there. Lots of central midfield cover, trotter and vela, derik can play there too. Wide players weak. Got Mavis wide in my team. Only walker as cover. Strikers also got Clayton, Woolley, Wilkinson.Newell. To sum up. Need a keeper, left back, right side attacker/winger as a priority. Guess this will depend on a high earner going to fund 2 or 3 coming in or a sale of holding or Clough.
Benny - why is Wilson holding Beevers' money, has he lost his wallet or something?
Snare roll, cymbal, I thank you
A ten a side game has been played and the lads seem to be putting in a shift. Marc seems to think that Parky I having a positive effect. Here is the link.

I sincerely hope that he's right.
Anyone who has an android device and the stupid Google keyboard it keeps downloading knows the problems with it making up its own words. The original version is fine, the new version is a nightmare. Also forgot we signed proctor so put him instead of madine.
Benny ,who's the left back ,MONEY
The squad is bigger than i thought. In addition to proctor who i forgot about we also have the lesser spotted twardzik who can play in midfield and at left back - not very well!
Benny see your doctor you can have an android removed on the NHS you know best be quick with these cuts backs.
We've started with a win, something we don't normally do. Helsingborg 1-2 parkys boys 🤗
that makes a welcome change let's hope we can carry it on for the remaining games and then into the season.
Parky is keen on implementing a good system which suits the players along with his enthusiasm I'm hoping for better things. It may well be that his backroom staff are better than we have had for some time.
Cautiously optimistic.
Back on home soil and everything is looking better than last season already.
Madine scored a screamer, something he wasn't able to do on a regular basis last season. It may be a flash in the pan but we have to hope that he can do a lot better this time around.
I won't put money on him being our top scorer just yet but with Proctor, Clayton "now fit" and Clough, I'm hoping that we have enough fire power to finish above mid table.
I await the upcoming games and more importantly the results and how the players respond. At the moment things look positive.
Joseph Shirdel to sign in the next few days a wide player on P.P wanted list.
And Blackpool goalkeeper Colin Doyle , you heard it here first ,
Unless Doyle decides on BRADFORD CITY 😉
Which is it going to be?
I don't know anything about Shirdel. Anyone with info. Good, bad or indifferent?
No doubt a good keeper and a decent winger would be good additions to the squad. Hopefully it won't take too long to get the deals done by the FL.
Four trialist set to get an outing tonight. Let's hope that they are worth taking a punt on.

The holiday season is on the way band I think all our posters are already on holiday judging by the lack of posts on the forum.
If you are already on holiday Enjoy. If not the latest offering from the Beano is a short assessment on Parky from Super John,

I am on holiday . I'm sure it will pick up soon. Just pardon the pun its not going on at the moment. When the season starts and it gets to the end of the transfer window it will all be going on.
I'm sure you are right. As I said enjoy your time with the family. I hope the sun is shining for you. It's been very hot and sunny here but it's raining and has been for a few hours.
We do need the rain but I feel sorry for the holiday makers.
Bolton get a new goalkeeper Mark Howard ,on a 2yr deal aged 29yrs.
let's hope he can do a decent job for us. I also hope Amos will improve this season, we need two competent keepers to have any chance of finishing in a decent position in the league.
Fears of not being able to sign players have receded quite significantly.
