Hi, I’m somewhat of an older duck due to my move out the town in 2010 but I enjoyed the last home game against Ware which was my first in over 8 years. I’m hoping to attend more this coming season but was intrigued to know what supporters think of the new additions? I noted a lot of changes in the past few weeks, but Pearce is a very good addition in my opinion having watched him at Hemel (where I now live) don’t no to much about the other guys but keen to learn and become a regular once more.

Dave Pearce is a very exciting signing in my opinion. If Ezra and Ty click with him they will all score bundles next season. The manager has suggested there's more signings to come (including a new GK) which sounds promising.
The other signings confirmed so far appear to be youngsters with potential and we have a very good recent record for giving young players a platform to fulfil their potential - for example Jack Moriarty who I'm delighted we've been able to retain for next season.

I’m confident in the transfer dealings so far. I think we will pick up a few more Thame players and hopefully a quality goalkeeper to replace Hopwood. Wells has said a few times about issues with the squad’s mentality and in all honesty it was obvious to see from some of the performances last season. Hopefully with a young hungry squad, some experienced heads AND proven goal scorers we could have a great season. It would be refreshing to go into games against the likes of Bedford and actually go for it rather than going through the motions and losing 2-0 without a fight. Overall pleased with our summer and looking forward to pre season.

Seems like a very good signing of Craig Hill, looked him up and good Cv!

Getting Craig Hill is a good replacement for Hoppy and settles the concerns we all had when Hoppy left, who was amazing for us last season
Based on the retained players and those that have been bought in, the squad is looking in decent shape that you would expect to be competitive next season. I would like to see a good solid central defender who has some good strength and height come in (JJ wasn't on the retained list so far so assuming he has gone which is a shame) and depending on formation next season (will JW stick with the change of formation we saw at the end of the season? ) maybe a few wide players or another centre midfielder as well as another striker (unless Bedford and Biggleswade Town snap them all up)

I'm guessing Ollie Hogg as Riddick's replacement. Did wonder about Aston Goss, witht he Thame connection, but he's too old
