With injuries already creeping in, who is actually currently available? It's clear we need to sign new blood! ✅=available and fit 🟠=maybe available but maybe not 100% fit ...❌=unavailable

GK Halstead ✅
GK Lovett ✅

FB Craske 🟠
FB Crowe 🟠
FB Martin 🟠
FB/MF Donnellan ✅
CB Tomlinson ✅
CB Marshall 🟠
CB Moxey ❌

CM Hall ❌
CM Lapslie 🟠
CM Dawson ❌
CM Hanson ✅
CM McGavin ✅

AM Jenkins-Davies ✅

LW/RW Collins ✅
LW/RW Stobbs ✅
LW/RW De Silva ✅

CF Jarvis ✅
CF Ash ✅

The only loan we have is WJD from Plymouth. In theory, I think we could add 4x loans in. We really need a CB and a CM before the weekend at the very least, but you could make a case for 2 in each position. What do you think?

Looks like a scene from Casualty. So early in the season and we have a squad with many crocks.
At least 4 with green ticks in my opinion are not up for it even at this level. Very concerning, but would you back Johnson with loan signings ?

I agree about some of those not being up to it. So the squad is wafer-thin!

It would be justified to give a new manager and coaching team a chance. But nothing appears to be changing!

there is no reason at all why come saturday we don't have loans in

they have had enough time now since before opening game saying they have highlighted loans as and when we need them, now is the time. think it was GJ brother who said this, IF we don't then i really lose faith with this set up even more so than already am

Marshall, Martin and Lapslie were victims of cramp on Tues, not injury.

Yep - in orange though as I don't believe they are fully 100% fit. Not 90+mins 2x games a week ready anyway! If we chuck them in playing too much they'll end up injured, so we really need reinforcements.

Does anyone have any injury stats of Johnson’s tenure vs previous management? I’m pretty sure this is a pattern that is associated with GJ!

Thought Pre-season was aimed at fitness and getting them ready for the long season ahead ? Seems an ongoing problem unfortunately as this is a repeat of last season on the injury front. Other sides look considerably fitter , faster and generally more athletic than we are. It is a huge concern only 3 games in .

David Sesay has left Weymouth to play full time football in this league. Would be a great addition for us, likely wishful thinking!

However Bristol city have recalled full back Zac Bell from Yeovil, so I’d expect to see Sesay sign for them.

Can't see any more loans coming in.
Jarvis should be back in the next 3 weeks Lapslie soon. Dawson ? Well who knows. Haven't heard an update on Jenkins Davies , would be good to have him back though suspect when he does return it will mean we lose Dolan. Those two in centre midfield would-be be ideal. Archer is here now , presume Stobbs picked up an injury as he wasn't involved Saturday.

Ruairi Keating has left Cork. Would be great to see him back with us.

I think cork were relegated but he was one of the best rated players in the league, so it's inevitable he'd leave Cork in any case.

His missus is from Devon iirc, so maybe she'd convince him.

Sesay has signed for Eastbourne Borough FC who are making the transition to become a full-time outfit. Great timing as we play them next Tuesday.
