Well, we've finally got our first 2 signings in and it looks as though we`re going for blood and guts with 2 no-nonsense players with bags of experience between them. We all know Jones' capabilities, and I, for one, am very surprised we managed to get him on a free! As for Prutton, he'll be all fired up to avenge a relegation! His fitness is there for everyone to see after completing 46 games for Swindon, and being surrounded by better players, I'm sure his no-nonsense attitude will be a tremendous boost to others who have been so easily pushed off the ball. I'm pretty sure there will be higher profile signings already lined up for the coming weeks, but personally, I'm very happy with this start of what's to come. UTO!!

Not being one to get in between mother and son but listen here Mrs Varadi, since when have I had the repeating disease!!! Do I need to see the doctor about this??
And while I am on a roll, you leave little imre alone, if he wants to miss his tea because he is playing with his pals, then let him - he won't starve!!

Back to the topic, trublue, I am with you on these signings. Jones we know will be good and although I don't know much about Prutton, it seems he will add some bite in midfield which has to be better than Potter and JOC.
Keep signing them Megson, Mellor next will do for me!
See, Mrs Varadi, no repeating here!!!

Cheers St. Charles: Sounded like a guy with a firm head on his shoulders in the official interview! Seems to know what he's talking about and sounds quite confident!

2 year deals, sounds about right for the transition period..
...looks like some more gritty football in the coming season, with onus on being hard to beat, rather than going for it and taking the league apart with attacking style through midfield play..
..the question then would be ..
..why did Megson replace Irvine ?..
.. or, are these two new recruits just part of the bigger picture in respect to a team being assembled to do the biz..
..we shall see..
..what will be, will be

i think the jones signing was a no brainer to be honest.
as for prutton, ive not seen that much of him but what little i have seen has been good. dont understand the moans though, havent we all been crying out for midfield to be strengthened.

Yeah, I'm with Kimmy, happy with Jones and will just wait and see on Prutton. Hopefully he can get his career back on track. Southampton paid a lot of money for him.

As for Imre and his Mum, they're pills for that sort of thing.

I am finally here on the new 606 wooooooo.
I am happy with the Jones signing, I haven't heard good thinks about Prutton from Swindon fans, who blame him for their relegation, but he could be good for us and when I saw a picture of him I thought it was the second coming, so he could be our saviour.
