I guess we’re still awaiting the mystery loan striker (it may not even happen). In a way I’m hoping it’s not a youngster from a pro club but someone a little older with experience of higher non league.

I would say definitely not someone in their 30's who's coming back after a long time out due to injury and needs game time.

No I mean early 20’s who has been on loan ideally at step 1/2 and has scored goals instead of an 18/19 year old who has yet to experience non league/men’s football or has only played at say step 4/5.

We have signed triallist keeper Rhys Forster from Met Police after impressing in pre season.

Presumably he'll go out on duel reg/ loan until his chance comes.

Surprised he’s signed when we have Michael? Can only presume we intend to name him as a sub goalie otherwise we have 2 goalies out on dual reg which is pointless.

I don't think we'll ever name a keeper as a sub unless there was no other choice.

Michael Edegby was not named in the squad so I'd say he is no longer with us.

He’s at Southall this season after spending last season at Egham.

RR healthy competition for the number 1 spot should push each keeper on.

Agree, but unless Northy gets injured he's going to be loaned out.

Michael is still with us but is on a season long loan, whereby we do not want to have to bring him back as it can cause problems for his place in the team at the next level.

He is a future prospect.
