Well lets see, he certainly has the ability. Don’t forget he was our star man in his first season under Evatt and If he can recapture that form under Dunn i think he is good enough.

I'd jump at the chance of signing Jordan Williams if his contract has ended at Fylde and we can afford his wages. He scored 15 goals in a poor Fylde team last season mostly playing as a striker and he's versatile enough to play there or just behind the main striker plus as a winger or a wing back. Just the type of player you need in a smallish squad.

Jordon Williams would be good to sign but think we also need an Andy Cook type forward or at least one with EFL experience up front who has scored goals as that level.

On another point and could someone verify this for me I think Blackburn have triggered Platts one year extension clause.

Hindle's barely had a good game for 18 months - he'll sign for someone like Chorley.

Yep a National North player. No wonder he wants away.
Turmoil at Fylde.
Manager waiting for a heart operation.
No 2 Ken McKenna gone.
Captain signed for Kidderminster
Dan Bradley gone too....
Getting back to William's. I hope we can attract a better calibre player than him....

Holt was an old man when he came back and Harrison had been ruined by injured and had failed at 2 NL clubs so it's a completely different situation. The fact that he's in a relegation squad makes his 15 goals even better and the fact that people would rule out a former player is just as stupid as the fact that some people would re-sign any former player!

Very good player Jordan Williams - he was first class when he was here . Scored some brilliant goals and is fast and a hard working player. Better footballer and finisher that Dior ( who improved considerably after Xmas) ) even if not so fast . Think he would be perfect for us as he can play in a number of positions, and he will be keen to prove himself in the EFL .

I think Williams would be a good addition to the squad. Was decent when we played them on NYD.

+1 lot of our 2nd time signings have been done on emotion and not merit and cost us a lot of money and valuable squad space.
