Could it be that we're looking to let him go and Wimbledon want to give him a season with their squad, just to see if he's up to it? County extending his contract is maybe just to ensure we get a fee from whoever takes a punt on him?

Could it be that we're looking to let him go and Wimbledon want to give him a season with their squad, just to see if he's up to it? County extending his contract is maybe just to ensure we get a fee from whoever takes a punt on him? As I say I'm not sure but the new contract going to 2025 means (at least in theory) he would come back to us at the end of the 2023/4 season. There have been lots of positive comments about him which suggest that he is seen as a bit of a project. DC, in general, wants experienced pros, unlike Gannon who seemed (to me anyway) to like getting young players in who he could then work on and develop. That said I also get the impression that DC is willing to have a few (a very few) developmental players and I suspect that Lewis may be one of those. DC seemed very happy with the experience that Ethan Pye gained at Gateshead and Keane Barugh too. Ah well, we'll just have to watch this space.

Not sure where to put this but this looks like a heavy investment in the education / coaching side of the 'Academy'. I am not sure how up to date it is, but good to see Bully involved.

Agreed, Ceef, Bully is County through and through. It's also great to see Raynesy still involved too.

I would say we will be looking to bring in a striker…

Turning down Deadpool FC doesn't mean much, because there's no way he'll get game time ahead of Mullin and Palmer, so with Kyle out for the kick-off and Stretton ruled out for the season, we're a pretty safe choice for getting some starts, at least early on, which would give him time to make his mark.
