Other than Lane and a bunch of contract extensions, is it realistic that we sign anyone significant now ?

Yes!! Player movements will probably heat up during the off-season I reckon!! And maybe even more this year with the coaching movements

Ideally this thread will be the most updated thread on this forum during the offseason, but i dont think it actually will be.

We've currently got 17 players signed up for next season and have to retain or recruit 12 more by the start of the season without 'offloading' anyone. That's 40% of the squad minimum... Surely there has to be something to keep us excited.

Cassius Longinus, Decimus Junius Brutus Albinus, and Marcus Junius Brutus. Beware, the Ides of October.

Some decent retentions there, most would be fairly cheap.

We need a couple of specific higher calibre signings, along with showing a few current players the door, if we're going to be a contender.

Squad balance and lack of leadership are the biggest issues we face.
