If we are talking no chance to sign him ....... then Gary Hooper was an unused sub for Narwch .... Young Steve Tilson never did use Hooper to get the best out of him.

It seems that discussion of general targets/released players etc is happening across multiple threads.
Here's yet another thread, but maybe a good place to discuss targets and players should look at. Who knows, maybe Phil will have a look!
This isn't to replace threads where there is 'inside info' or a genuine rumour, just a place for general speculation.
I didn't realise Alfie Mawson was out of contract:

He's be a genuine improvement on all of our CBs, IMO.
His age would see us need to pay a fee. Him and Bolger as first choice with Prosser, Thompson and Barrett(?) behind would be perfect.
Nicky Maynard has been released by Cardiff, I know I'm probably thinking to optimistically, but he would be a great signing for us and I do see him dropping to League 1. Going through a list of Championship players released, and those who will likely drop to League 1 include:
Nick Proschwitz
Craig Mackail-Smith
Jay Emmanual-Thomas
Simon Church
Chris Eagles
Jamie Ward (50/50 if he would)
Martin Paterson
Noel and Stephen Hunt (Have either worked with Brown before?)
Nicky Bailey
Ricardo Fuller
Magaye Gueye
Ben Pringle (again 50/50 to drop a level)
Giles Coke
Jacques Maghoma
Leon Clarke
There are plenty more on there - https://footballfragmento.wordpress.com/2015/05/07/championship-released-players-summer-2015/
LOL I'd eat my keyboard if we signed Beckford.
I'd eat my dogs nuts he's just had removed if we sign Beckford..... :smile:
Weirdo, they say it takes all sorts..:'(

Two realistic targets I'd like to see is swap Prosser with Sokolik if he is still at Yeovil??, I'd like to see Theo Robinson back, I think a lt of the names quoted are well out of our team budget let alone as a individual.

I think if he was going to drop down to L1, then a big club like Sheff Utd or Cov would be looking at him, and happy to pay big bucks. He's a good player and even though he's been here before we'd be well back in the pecking order I'd guess.
We can dream though!
Theo Robinson was already in league one with Doncaster the whole of last season.

Anthony Grant is supposedly leaving Crewe as his contract expires in the summer, but because his wages are quite high I don't know if he would be consider for a return. Still a good player from what I read.
i would keep prosser as I think at the start of the season he will still be our no 1 starter at centre back, sokolik might struggle at first after his injury, think Barrett will also be on bench come the start of the season if he can get another deal with us, I really rate prosser and wouldn't sell him for anything less than 500k.Two realistic targets I'd like to see is swap Prosser with Sokolik if he is still at Yeovil??, I'd like to see Theo Robinson back, I think a lt of the names quoted are well out of our team budget let alone as a individual.

Pretty sure CP said Granty was in the directors box during the Stevenage game jumping up and down! Crewe fans seem to think he's in talks with both us and Millwall!! :unsure:He played in my charity game earlier in the month, and certainly hasn't ruled out a return to Roots Hall...
