Team areas to strengthen ?

[michael]

Approaching end of season retention lists,and goodness knows who RT will release and who will want to leave.

 

Ironically, i still feel that the current group of players are of sufficient quality to have done alot better-so i hope there are not wholesale close season changes.

 

No doubt-some will leave,but based on the current squad, i see these 4 positions as areas needing strengthening:

right back(to release Peters to play elsewhere)

central defence

central midfield

another striker with pace

I would like to see another season from Skinner if he can still play. Also I think Joseph is being harshley under-rated on here, Smith is more than able when his confidence is up and Dan Young's heading ability often belies his height.

Completely agree Steve. I'd also like to see some other coaching support. As we know, the plan was for Robin to "manage" and not play. I'm sure it must be much garder than it looks for both Robin and Macca to play, manage and coach in the same game. Perhaps if that were resolved with one or two good signings we'd be right back in the mix for next season. With the players we already have, I don't see why we shouldn't be.

Steve,I do belive that JS is calling it a day at the end of this season,shame because imo he is a great player.

[michael]

gree with all of the above-Young will get better-and next season -with a seasons Ryman experience under his young belt-he could do really well-needs a good defender alongside him just the same.

I similarly rate josephs as one who will get better.

 

So it seems we do have the players-but just not co-ordinating.

 

 

As Wellsie suggests-maybe the most important signing could be a Quality coach who macca can learn from aswell.

 

Call for Kevin Hales ?

I have also heard that and it is a real shame.

Certainly agree with those who say a quality coach is needed if Trott is kept on. IMO it's absolutely essential.

[blue balls]

DEFENCE, DEFENCE AND DEFENCE!!!Trott and Macca to go. Experienced manager and coach to come in. This league will be even tougher to get out of next season with all the kent derby games. We need a management team capable of getting the best out of what is on its day a talented squad of players capable of beating anyone.

[TonyM]

If that is the case BB,who would you suggest???

[Ian_Sanderson]

Well Ollie is set to leave Ramsgate,youve approached him 3 times, maybe 4th time lucky?

[Cookie]

But lucky for who Ian? I take it you don't want him next season then. (3 times-absolute crap). Dream on, dream on.

[Ian_Sanderson]

Dont want him, what a ridiculous thing to say.IMO Ramsgate best player, but if he wont sign you cant force him. 3 Times yes, 3 x 7 day approaches.

[Wellsie]

I'm going to poke my eyes out with a blunt stick for saying this, but by adding a number of things together I would not be surprised if the 3 approaches for Ollie Schulz have been 2 Dover, 1 Margate. And from my point of view, he is by some way Ramsgate's best player, based on the derby games. In the last one, the best player on the pitch and probably the reason we came away with nothing. When he does go - becasue I can't see him stopping - it will be a massive gap for the Rams to fill.

[Ian_Sanderson]

be a + for Dover though

[Rob_Butler]

Some would argue not even the best of our defensive pair.

[Ian_Sanderson]

I agreee Rob, some say Nick is better than Ollie

[Rob_Butler]

Even if he is not better, which one would you rather have, eight or nine goals from a defender could result in 10points. The end of the discussion is Ramsgate do not rely on individuals, think the same should be done at Margate, lower the wage bill, spend the money on a strong coach with pedigree, it would get better results and be more pleasing.

Perhaps they are over here because they are lonely on their own site with no bugger to talk to. Mind you I ignore them anyway.
