Or we have decided to not extent Louis loan from Crawley? And we always needed a new defender to replace Aislen.

Yeah that is a good shout but I reckon it will be Macca. JE likes to sign players that he knows and Macca was at Grays with him.

JE said that one of the possible signings would be dependent on whether we keep Louis. If we let him go back then I presume we free up the wages we were paying him.

Not true, he said that we were planning to bring in the striker and defender anyway, and that we had a couple more ready if Tommo and Osano go. So all is not lost with these signings.

With Tomlin playing on the right wing (ok, right side attacker in a 4-3-3 recently), I don't think he'd get in another striker. Most likely Louis' loan is not being extended, plus these are additions being made to the squad, not replacements, as has been mentioned.

Someone on the Grass Roots forum says we are being linked to Drewe Broughton. I'm being serious too.

Could possibly be Lewis Guy from Colchester.
