Yes, Owen Parry has played for Rushall also. I saw him play against the Strangers in the FA Cup a few years ago and he ripped them to pieces. He is scoring goals this season at step 4.
I guess we can't be too greedy as we've done well to get Gyasi in at a time when money remains tight.

I would imagine there will be a couple of departures to accommodate Gyasi. But we have to bear in mind we have enough players left to compete in the County Cups as a few we are bringing in are cup tied. It gonna require a good balancing act.

I always thought Gyasi was a striker but when we announced his signing, he was listed as a winger which I think could mean Joe Morley’s days could be numbered.
Harry gave him an horrendous time on Saturday, hounded him all game. He couldn’t do anything right

Whilst I agree that Morley hasn't been at his best, being hounded by the manager is not a good look. Any player getting constant grief is never going to play well and it is disappointing to hear that this has happened.
As for the county cups - I have no interest in these at present. Staying up is everything and progression in a county cup is nice, but nothing compared to surviving this brush with relegation.

Still have to produce a side that are eligible to play in three games though.

That’s probably because he doesn’t do anything right (apart from Bootle) and the effort he puts in is extremely limited. How many times has he run at a defender and put a cross in the matches against Prescot, Clitheroe, Leek and Northwich?

The calibre of signings we are making now is making it feel we are once again becoming a proper football club and not just going through the motions.

It’s a shame about Tom Armitage. He was excellent in the few games he played for us especially at Avro when we had to play with 10 men for almost an hour.

He's picked up an injury I believe back at Solihull. Nobody sure what's happening with the rest of his loan atm.

An interesting signing. Experienced midfielder to add to those we already have. If he can improve us then this will be a bonus as we've been a bit short in that department in recent games. Looks like Max Martin won't be coming back.
Good to see that we are able to attract established players at this level. Clearly there is a bit more money around than there was a couple of months ago

I wouldn't expect so as FIVE currently have long term injuries, TWO shorter term injuries and TWO dual registered from lower league clubs, which means there are actually only 16 or 17 available for selection at this moment in time.
