Aye, the silence is a bit scary. Don't worry, though. I remember Hereford hardly had anyone signed up just before the season started a few years ago, but Graham Turner brought in a number of good loanees and they ended up being promoted! Of course it wasn't sustainable and they came straight back down to div.2 the following season. Doesn't it make you feel for the Premier league managers who complain that they need several multi million pound Carlos kickaball imports in order to be competitive every season? What a ridiculous state of affairs. I recommend Alan Sugar's book "The Way I See It" for an insight into the farcical finances of the Premier League when he was chairman of Spurs. And things have only got ten times worse since then!
