Although the main article on the Observer website talks about us being in for Winnard from Accy, it also mentions that Ross Draper from Macc is a potential signing. Looks like he is one of the few under contract there, can't say as I know too much about him or have seen him play. |  | | |  |

saw that too, so we're lookin at going back up with the Macc forward line, an chesterfield can sign Marc Richards, surely we need to be looking at better. |  |

Huge difference in spending power based on them having an average gate of 7,000 plus all non matchday revenues from a new ground / revenue generating commercial organisation.
Our gates are mid league 2 level at best. Therefore without a significantly better manager than other teams on average that is where we will end up until a step change in ambition / commercial functionality is achieved.
But yes we need to do better than Macc strikers | | | |

Don't forget that Keith Hill was never afraid to go for affordable options from the lower reaches of Div 2 free transfers - Wiseman , Done , JLAA , Widdowson etc , and I reckon both Winnard and Draper have amassed more league experience than those . If they're young and committed with at least some pedigree I'm happy to give them a chance and accept JC's footballing judgement ; the only rumour that does cause me worry is the one re McIntyre which reminds me of Graham Barrow going back to former clubs for ageing favourites !
I think we have to accept we won't be able to challenge the likes of Chesterfield financially , so reverting to the Hill strategy of unearthing younger talent from the lower reaches seems logical and sound to me . | | | |

Ian Craney is another worry........Crocked Crainey of Accy.
Surely looking around there are much much better players available and affordable. | | | |

5 goals in 38 league games for Hednesford.. one in 29 the other year for Macc. (According to football manager......)
Dubious. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Hes an attacking midfielder, who has scored 10 goals in 97 games for Macc, on the plus side he is 6ft 5in. | | | |

Doing my previews for League 2 games this year I noticed he was injured quite a lot, but when I asked Macc fans who they felt their key players were, Draper was mentioned quite often.
And he's a midfielder, not a striker. |  |

Sounds good to me. There might well be 'better' sounding players out there but if its who Coleman wants I'd much rather have that than see pages of "grimes/adams doesnt give a fook for this club" again. |  | | |
