So where is our statement of intent, just look at Chesterfields latest signing prolific striker Kabongo Tshimanga from Boreham Wood.

Chesterfield have apparently paid an ‘amazing’ fee for striker Kabongo Tshimanga, says Boreham Wood chairman Danny Hunter.

What's happened to the Grist, Pollock, full parachute payment money?


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Assuming we were in for him, there is a point in any negotiation where you have to make a final offer or walk away.

At least give PH until the 21st before writing off the season

From what we have seen so far I'd say McAtee was a statement of intent. Looks a class above non league to me.

Most fans seem to be saying we are two strikers away from having a decent team.
There will be plenty of players becoming available for permanent or loan transfers in the next month.
Here’s hoping we get two good uns

We've got a Solid team.

Some might totally disagree, because most signing's haven't been 'big' names that most people have heard off.

Longe-king - 26, prime age, and was constantly in and around the team that finished in the play-offs in the league above. Most Newport fans wanted him to stay
Pearson - Captain and regular for a team that finished 1 point outside of play-offs in this league, most Wrexham wanted to keep him, and we know the qualities he brings off the pitch, and this can't go unnoticed
Efete - 24, still young, 2 years ago helped Wealdstone win the National league south, and voted in the team of the season
Sousa - again, 26, prime age. Already shown in pre-season he looks very good going forward, and someone to get excited about
Fox - only 23, yet seems composed and experienced in the middle of the park. Looks quality at this level. End of 2020 he was playing regular for a league 1 team before getting injured.
Mcatee - Showing he would be best played behind the striker in a number 10 role, good vision, and will get in double figures IMO
Revan - Looks to be a young gem already, fast, gets forward, and has 2 assists in 2 games i believe?


Lets not get worked up because someone else signed a striker.
Yes we need one, Yes PH is looking for one, Yes we will sign one.

A club that circumvented furlough rules, a club financially chaotic, a club now ‘spending big’ to sign a player…

Who gives a flipping rats bottom.

I’d hazard a guess that chap they’ve signed will probably still live down in the big smoke given how easy Chesterfield is to get to. I’m sure we negotiated well but was he really worth breaking the bank for?

The panic on here is a flipping golden…


'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
