It must be very difficult for a manager this tim eof the year. ALthugh it stikres me that as we currently have 4 strikers on contract and another 4-5 on trial that it's also difficult to give them enough time on the pitch, especially as they all pretty much look the same in terms of skill level, etc:

Robinson
Benjamin
McCollin
Mclean

They all seem pretty interchangable.

Personally, there are 3 contracted players (not naming names) I'd happily release because we have trialists who are better.

Of all the trialists I think Challinor would be the best signing, so hopefully (a) he's still around and (b) we have the capacity to sign him. I'd be prpared to sacrifice an existing player to bring him in as he coul dbe oneo ofthe best players in the league at this level.

Otherwise Zepherin, Conroy and Wolleastonseem obvious signings (if Conroy doesn't get an offer from elswhere that allows him to continue with his modelling career). I think we need a speedy winger, so Clarke and McCollin seem to most abley fill this role.

I suppose if they don't get better offers and we have a full squad in place, some players may be willing to play on a non-contract basis.
