Haven't you read earlier comments..?? :-|

Fairly unsure on the signing but I trust in the views of Nico to pick the right player for the club. My understanding was that he was fairly highly rated at the Man Utd academy, before his indiscretions. Hopefully, we'll get the talented player and not the mess that caused him to leave.

Good news. Always rated him.

Seems like the budget might be wearing thin now (which is to be expected with the players already recruited and the budget provided).

Now I am confused! Rowe Turner is a left back yes? so either we have signed 2 (and have 3 on the books) or Mcginty will play as centre back?!

I believe that LRT became more of a centre-back after he left. I'm pretty sure that's where he played against us a few times?

Jesus, LRT coming back? Not sure about that one. Very hit and miss. But I guess he's cheap and can play Left back and Centre half

Mc D (prior to being on 9 bookings), Mcginty's previous record and remembering LRT when he was here first time.......suspect the old yellow and reds will be flowing this year!

I guess McGinty will be centre-half/backup left back and LRT will be left back/backup centre-half.

Means we can play an attcking left-winger and right-back with a back three in posession and gives us extra hight at set pieces. Just need to find someone like Nicho to take all the set pieces like he used to...

I liked LRT. He was raw when he was with us but he had all the attributes to be a good player and I thought he was improving. Thought Ling was a bit hasty to release him, especially as his replacement was Tom Cruise, who was one of the more pathetic professional players we've had. Has played both left back and centre back since he left us. Always thought as he got older he would move more central, has great centre back attributes.

Sean McGinty........James Hurst MkII ?

Let's hope I'm wrong.

Reading between the lines, is McGinty the hard man we've been needing for a while?

A fresh start for Sean.
He will be a top class Centre Back .
He will give 100% and has learned from mistakes made at a young age. Let's give him a chance, be positive and instill confidence in not only Sean, but all our players this season.
Successful teams grow and prosper through developing their people and build on strengths without fear of failure.
That is how confidence is instilled and success is delivered .

I would presume, with LRT signing, that Sean will predominantly be used as a Centre Back, alongside Angus. Butler leaving is a real shame, but the squad is starting to come together really nicely now.
