Here is my usual annual update.
Ronan Mayer will be signing full professional contract today to sign him down long term.
Also signing a young striker today, do not know who. Also we have been offered several players by the Villa, one of whom is someone who can score goals? Is this the same player? Watch this space.
With Danny Johnson, to sign him long term would have cost more money, so deals will be reviewed in January where we could sign him long term. Want to wait and see how Wilko does with injury though, but club are excited about possibly renewing the partnership up front.
Abrahams had a couple of offers before he signed for us. Didnt play Saturday as the deal wasnt concluded in time and he didnt want to run the risk of getting injured so close to the start of the season without being under contract with a club, which is understandable. Only a 1 year deal as because of his age we still hold his registration so do not need an option of extra year, apparently??
Wilko and Labade are not expected to get back into proper training with the squad until January, and then need to build up fitness and contact play.
