As ever SUFC seem to like to keep fans in the dark regarding any transfer and/or contract news.. Fan interaction is so much quicker when the begging bowl comes out.

We don’t know the playing budget yet and that will be decisive, anything less than last year’s £900,000 and a poor season beckons, you would reckon it should be north of a million after what was achieved last season, fingers 🤞

What are they keeping you in the dark about? To make such comments you must know they have news,which in itself suggests they’re not keeping you in the dark.

The club historically have been very poor at keeping fans informed especially on matters such as transfers contracts etc .. even recently nothing about the new pitch system they had chosen.
Also Yeovil released the Westbrooke signing as they got him from Donny but IMO having been here on loan all season Scunny should have also at least commented out of courtesy to their fans who were all hoping we signed him.
It seems the clubs fan interaction policy is all one way when it suits fans are chucked a scrap but the SOS come fast n furious.
As i said on another thread without investment and/or new owners its NL for the next decade. and god forbid putting up with the mumbling AB as he just does enough and no money to replace him same as with new players now.1 user thanked author for this post.
He went back to his registered club at the end of his loan.
Why would we comment on not signing a player??

Assuming after ZW being at the club all year on loan and it appears most scunny fans wanted him to sign surely SUFC should have updated if he was/was not even approached to sign or offered a contract and turned it down.
Again IMO it goes back to the club failing when it comes to club updates / fan interaction.1 user thanked author for this post.
Don’t think we are in the financial position to be offering 3 year contracts to OK National League level (almost) 30 year olds.
We only had one player worth a 3 year deal and he’s just left the club.

Surely the “proof” is that Yeovil announced a signing of a player we’d had on loan all season, but we’ve said nothing about not re-signing him?
That’s not proof the club knew he was joining Yeovil,it’s proof he is joining Yeovil only
Do you think he went to the Iron and said I’m negotiating with Yeovil while he has an offer on the table?
Might just have done so.
If he thought we might increase our offer.
So far we’ve “allowed” two to escape, but signed no one.
Bargain basement again?It’s not even the end of May yet. Lots of clubs will lose players in the coming weeks, but will not sign others until they have gone. Many contracts run until end June as well.
We don’t have a very good record of getting in players early, but it is somewhat unfair to start haranguing them so early.

Yeah, point taken.
Just bored, so looking for stuff to discuss.

There is an order to things at SUFC
1. The announcement of the retained list.
2. The announcement of out of contract players signing elsewhere
3. The announcement of a draft pre season friendly programme
4. The announcement of a marque signing/re signings of OOC players
5. The announcement of a finalised preseason programme
6. Players reporting back for training
4/5/6 may be interchangeable
7. The appearance of triallists ABCDEFGHI and J in said pre season games
8. Start of Season
9. The announcement of Triallists ABC and D signing 1 year “bench warmer” terms
10. The announcement of season long loans for players you have probably never heard of.
We are only currently of step 2 of the process!1 user thanked author for this post.
