    If it is Danny Hylton then I’m hoping it’s to help with fitness. 
    Could mean Kanu out on loan

    Henry shared a rumour that he was on trial, I found an article on him, here’s what I posted at the time:

    Was looking into what type of midfielder Bishop is, there’s a good article on his three years at Lincoln:

    https://staceywest.net/2024/02/21/super-ted-the-rebirth-of-ted-bishop/

    To summarise he was often played out wide, more recently he’s played centrally and they’re getting the best out of him to the point he’s seen as a top L1, borderline Championship player.

    What else stands out are his dribbling stats, clearly a strength of his. Having a CM who can carry the ball well, drive us forward or win free kicks is currently a gap in our midfield. Aribo did it in Bowyer’s team and it adds that threat centrally, taking pressure off the wing backs in the 3-5-2 or 4-4-2 diamond formations NJ favours.
    Then that’s another very positive acquisition if it happens.

     I was awaiting Dobson’s return for this, but no matter, because now we’ve signed Docherty, we could feasibly put out a team starting with the first 11 letters of the alphabet:

                         Isted
    Edmonds-Green Jones Gillesphey
     Campbell Docherty Berry Henry
                      Fraser
                  Kanu  Ahadme

    😎
    (I love silly crap like this. A bit like that squad we had a few years ago that had about 9 players who all had different first names, but they all began with A.)


     Are you retired by any chance ?  :D
    😂

    No, just a nerdy Wally.

    Bishop would be absolutely unreal to complete the midfield, I'd still say that Hylton on trial is just a favour from NJ, we don't need anymore strikers...Ahadme, Godden, Leaburn, Kanu and Aneke is enough, and should there be an injury crisis I'd much rather see Mbick or Casey given a chance.

    Wonder if Hylton is boosting our ST numbers while Leaburn builds fitness

    I don't think that article reads very well at all tbh, unless it was relating to a player who was a bit younger like our Tyreece. Just makes him sound like a player who struggles with consistency. I've not read that and thought 'I'd love us to sign him'. 

    I especially don't like one of the last comments from Appleton. Knowing Appleton he could have easily got mixed up with Colby Bishop, and even then, has a poor eye for a player.

    Probably why he’s only on trial, still has a lot to prove even if this Lincoln fan rates him. Agree he’s not at the level of someone like Docherty who we can confident that he improves us.

    I think the board and NJ have done everything we could have reasonably expected of them so far. It feels like we have a positive buzz around the club, some new players from a higher level to see in the friendly games to come, and the promise of a couple more to come at least.

    Looking forward to the season ahead 
    "I think the board and NJ have done everything we could reasonably expected of them so far"

    But Nathan Jones PROMISED, double pinky swore it and signed in blood with photographic and video evidence and witness testimonials that he would have the ENTIRE squad, the cure for cancer, fix global warming AND the potholes in the carpark by 27th June.

    We obviously have no money, the board aren't supporting NJ, it's Andy Scott's fault, the salmon trousers are too pink.

    Spineless wasters is an incredibly accurate description of us in recent seasons 
    What forum is this from?
    I'm guessing Lincoln City, due to the imp in the username.
    I read that as Scotgimp 😬😬

    I was actually sure he played against us when we beat Ipswich three nil at home, but that couldn't have been three years ago surely. I looked him up on Wiki, has had some bad injuries in his career but was certainly one of Ipswich's stars when he broke through, contract negotiations broke down with his parent club, Lincoln, hence he's a free agent, might be worth a twelve month deal.

    Not sure why Hylton was cobblers at the Cobblers, but given neither Aneke or Leaburn were in squad, I'd give him a 6 month deal minimum. He's a bastard for defenders. Need to see Bishop vs decent oppo.

    I think now we know why Greg was announced before an official photoshoot was arranged

    The club choreographed it so it would be before.Dobbo's.

    Imagine the reaction here if the Doc hadn't signed.

    Ahh, has it been settled though... I mean, was the contract binding, can you trust Dobson to actually stick to anything now...can you...🤷‍♂️

    I dunno what capacity he'll be here, if at all, but Jones certainly alludes to him being able to impart knowledge onto our young strikeforce, so I imagine a player/coach role isn't that far fetched

    That’s how I read NJ quotes, we have a goalkeeper coach so makes absolute sense to have a striker coach too.

    Or even as an Andy Hughes/Jason Pearce (in his last season) type player-coach. Signed mostly with the aim of coaching and training but able to play the odd game (or part of a game) here and there as a last resort.

    I'd be very surprised if he was signed up as a regular part of the matchday squad but he could do a job as a sort of lieutenant to Jones among the players.

    At the game, Scott Fraser played a peach of a through ball between CB &
    full back. Resulting in a goal, on the flip side he was easily disposed 3 or 4 times while moving forward.
    I would like to think NJ could mould him into his style of player, but not convinced.
    Wonder if he responds to an arm round the shoulder or a kick up the backside?
