Apparently we’re also looking at Jeremiah Chilokoa-Mullen as well. That’s a risk for me, if we go with two young centre halves given we lacked experience and leadership at the back last season.
He is rapid though, as is Forbes apparently, so maybe he’s looking to play with a higher line next season.

A little out of the blue but rumoured to have an interest in henry fieldson - lb from Queens park

Was about to say exactly the same about needing proper experience at the back.  I think Ross Graham is a good player, but if I'm honest, I don't see him as being captain material as he needs to just concentrate on his own game.  We need a big, hard, kick his own granny type player in the middle who is a leader and has hundreds of games experience at a good level of football.

Any time I've seen Chilokoa-Mullen he's looked a good solid player, but I just don' know if he is what we need just now.

I feel too much onus is being put on the 'player trading' model and not enough attention is being paid to the must have element of the team, if we want to have a go at winning a cup or getting European football.

Guess as well that sevelj and ageing are dms as opposed to centre backs and might be able to do a job but then it would hurt us in midiflef.... leaves us with

Graham
Forbes
Iovu

Bert (maybe off)

2 young lads who need football.

Agree with whoever said we still need a big jo nonsense, experienced cb. Whether we could have 5 near starting cos, I dont know.

I do think we are going to see more players go out which would increase what we need

Surely we don't sign both.

Even allowing for Esselink departing that would still leave us with 

Iovu
Graham
Forbes
Cleall-Harding
Sevelj
Agyei
Dewar

Who could all play CH if needed too.

We desperately need wingers and Strikers.
 

I think we definitely need another right sided centre half. Esselink will be away, Sevelj is only for emergencies, and SCH won’t be first choice, so for me he needs to go on loan for the season to Championship and playe every week.
