Ellis Myles, a right sided player has signed for the Pilgrims from Brackley Town.

Any reports on our two latest signings?

The player from Brackley seems OK. He's been playing regularly and last season they had, I think 28 clean sheets.

Perhaps they'd let us have their goalie as well!

Well we certainly need one, and a good one too.
Shame we couldn't keep young Dewhurst for another season.

   Would love to have kept Marcus for another season, but was never going to happen. Hoping George Sykes-Kenworthy could be tempted back - players player & supporters player of season at BPA and talented young keeper. Or George Willis perhaps?

Look towards Kettering!! For both goalkeeper and left back. Both their regulars from last year have left the club and both were signed last year by our manager. Might be wrong but looks a good bet and both are very good, one was player of the year. Watch this space

I see GSK has just signed a new deal with BPA.

And, with all due respect, not George Willis!!

Had a huge weakness of easily being beaten from distance during his time with us, and at Gainsborough beforehand. Lost count of the number of goals he conceded that way and, if that's still his achilles heel, then wouldn't want him back.

Agree 100% re: Marcus Dewhurst.

In terms of former goal keepers both Ross Fitzsimmons and James McKeown are both now free agents…

Well that's the first one!!
Excellent choice on goalkeepers now

And now we have Kettering's player of the year Alex Brown (left back). Cox seems to be rejigging the defence - I'm now hoping for some developments further up the field..........

Agree Fitzsimmons or McKeown would be sound at this level. My son says McKeown did not get a first team start for Grimsby last season. Agree with earlier post please not Willis. I've really had it for life with his timewasting tactics, whether playing for us or not. Wrecks the game.

I'm thinking of Rhys Davies free agent and ex Kettering and Wales under 21 international if he's recovered from last seasons injury. Paul signed him last year and might be keen again.

He started as their number 1, until November when Crocombe took over (17 starts). He then disappeared from even their matchday squads... in his testimonial season, as well.
