Not a great calendar entry for August 27th, but if there is better than what we have, win win

Just seen who is playing in this game. Mustapha Carayol, Rolando Aarons, Paul Appiah, Jubril Okedina, Saikou Janneh amongst some of the names I recognise.

Janneh (ST) and Okedina (CB) were at Cambridge in L1 last season. We could do a lot worse than 24yo Okedina. Janneh is goal shy so would fit in, with just2 goals since he banged in 16 for Torquay back in 2018/19.

Aaron's came through Newcastle. 29yo winger, he's scored 5 goals in his career...

Appiah is a 22yo centre back trying to get back into the EFL after being released by Leicester and going to Chelmsford last year.

Carayol is 36 now and probably past it, but still probably better than what we have...

Keep an eye on Anthony Stewart that might be one we go for.

Torquay you say...? Surely a done deal then.

I think it is a good thing the Manager was scouting. It shows people that he can find his own possible signings while others look elsewhere. The cynicism of some posts. baffles me. I am not a fan of his tactics but appreciate he is out looking.
