A pretty good couple of home fixtures. I’ll certainly look to make the Oxford and Southampton games. The Saturday game is most likely to be Bournemouth, Gillingham or Sheff Utd going on past fixtures. We will see. Any league club coming to town is great for the club so I hope it’s a decent one at that...maybe it’ll be Pompey??

A great article and an interesting insight, however it’s all guess work and now real hard evidence or proof. It could be true but could also just be reporters twisting everything. As supporters of Eastleigh we all know he’s got unfinished business here. One day I believe he’ll return to us so we’ll see.
Also did the report mention the money used to buy the club was largely from parachute payments?? 😂 I think it’s in there about 87 times!!!

Surely we've got to try and get Nathan Ashmore from ebbsfleet.... Now avaliable on a free transfer. Also believe he lives local. It seems there is a major funding issue at the club at present. McCallum looks to be signing for Solihull today, that’s a shock. Clearly they have offered him a lot more than we did. In fact I’m pretty sure we’d have offered him less than what he was on last year. I wouldn’t expect too many more to sign on either from the offered contracts list. Not even Ben Strevens has signed on yet!! All sounds a little worrying to me!

From what I’m told all contracts are now only 1 year deals where the club has the option to trigger a 1 year extension at the end of the contract. Some older players have appearance based contract extensions in them, hence Réda staying on again. He and Wynter will be massive for us at the back. Another CB to come in, maybe Hobson on a season loan for cover.
Depending on who stays I’d like to see 2 strikers come in minimum, another Yeates style player, a midfielder with a real engine on him to get stuck in (in the Stanley or Jason Taylor mould), another CB and a full back who can play either side. Obviously a keeper too, I imagine we’ll dip into the loan market for a couple of them depending on available funds!
And exciting summer ahead I think. Roll on the new season. I cannot wait for it to get started!

Find it hard to believe Zeb has been let go, and Williamson being offered new contract Part of me is and part isn’t. Zeb hasn’t really ever had a scoring streak with us whereas Williamson has the ability to and has the pace to go with it. I think it would have been a close call but the right one. I’d expect at least 2 strikers to come in, specially as I can’t imagine McCallum will be staying with us. I’d be very surprised, and happy, if he did stay though. For me Yeates, Hare and Jones are very important to keep. The rest are replaceable in my opinion. First things first we need to get a contract for Strevs and his team sorted quickly!!

Can we / should we finalise the retained list before confirming Strevens contract? Or will it be a new manager?

I was sure Réda was one of the players who’s contract was definitely up? Would save us quite a bit of money. I notice none of the players so far are hinting about next season at all, although it is a long summer. We will see. Looks like Kenny, Tom et al are going to be very busy over the summer!!

Yeah painting the wall under the new main stand is a good idea I think. Also the club should look into this as a sponsorship area. It has space for some huge boards there which would be seen on TV and YouTube, specially if we are promoted!!

I believe this deal had to be a month due to it being an emergency loan, might be wrong though. All being good id expect him to sign until end of the season come the end of this current deal

Sounds decent. Good young keeper by the sounds of it. Fingers crossed for him!

Rumours doing the rounds about a keeper from Reading? No idea who. Interesting they have a keep on loan at Braintree at the moment so maybe we are getting him??
