Interesting to note that 3 of the 4 recent signings were on the verge of being, or are 30+. At times last season, Chappell aside, we were sorely missing a bit of nous and experience.

We know about Harper - he's not likely to do much running (he's even older than I am), but we know how much of a steadying influence he can be and Hamblin comes highly rated from Wealdstone. He certainly doesn't lack pedgiree.

The manager alludes to more announcements pending, really interested to see what else might be coming.

This time last year we were still four days away from the announcement of our first four signings. We already have eleven on board for the new season and you can see the basis of a team forming. Of course, that's no guarantee of success, but things certainly feel a lot more settled when observing from the outside.
