Sounds like Aaron has decent pedigree. Being based in rural Lincolnshire it is always going to cause problems attracting players. Also sounds more and more likely that Hall will sign. Having a base squad of around 16 (plus Barlow, Sanders and Smythe for the u21's) and using loans to cover injuries is probably the best idea with a lot of the squad travelling from away. Better to have a smaller happy squad who are all involved than having 20 plus first teamers.
