11 days away so unless we are planning 8 aside there will be some signings soon 👍

Maybe some of our transfer targets don't want to commit until after their World Cup involvement has ended.

Don't necessarily need players signed on for friendlies though - can use trialists / youth players etc

Bloody worrying that we haven't signed a striker yet, surely he would want them in place before the friendlies start.

And as the OP says, there's still well over a week until we start playing...

They start pre-season training tonight so I would say there will be a few turning up tonight that have agreed to sign already and training 1st opportunity they have had to sign paperwork

I am sure Craig will get it sorted though,if not cookie will have to get his boots on along with Craig.

12 confirmed signings so far from BUFC twitter ....


✅ Willis (GK)
✅ Parkin (GK)
✅ Middleton
✅ Gough
✅ Jackson
✅ Qualter
✅ McCombe
✅ Thanoj
✅ Abbott
✅ Walker
✅ Arnold
✅ Rollins


Just need some strikers.

Looks like we already have a decent defence and midfield. Was a bit disappointing to see Keane and Hemmings leave but Arnold and McCombe could be as good/better.

Need at least 1 more defender to cover the right back and at least 1 more midfielder to cover the middle of the park as would be light when there are injuries.

We then need at least 2-3 strikers but sure Craig knows this and has it in hand

If he signs for them he will probably go out on loan.
