2 tweets from Shaun Reynolds @95_reynolds: Sports Editor & Sub-Editor of Coventry, Leamington, Solihull & Rugby Observers. Part-time photographer. Horses, dogs, bikes & the great outdoors!
Word for word:
1) Mark Robins confirms two players are very close to agreeing a deal with #CCFC. Tight lipped when asked what position they play. #PUSB.
2) He adds whatever comes in must move out to balance books though.

Can't be, we have no bus or academy kit and can't even afford the kit man's digs.
We're potless.

He played right wing every time I saw him against us for Rochdale. Whatever injury he had seems to have done him some damage.

Exciting to read this, let’s hope they don’t keep us waiting for too long to reveal who are they are.
As Nick said it would also imply he knows who is going, so credit where it is due, they have obviously been working hard behind the scenes.
Even if one of those leaving is one of our better players or a youngster with potential, I’d accept that if it strengthened our chance of promotion at the first time of asking. Ideally it’d be Willis - recently signed a new contract so will demand a higher fee and we have more than enough cover at CB.

Confirmed. Beavon and Vincenti on lifetime contracts - can't reveal source though.

So frustrating those 2 are the ones to get season ending injuries

He played on the right for Rochdale.

Enitrely speculation but I wonder if Ponticelli could be off to PL/Champ U23s? Only played 20 minutes in the last 5 games and surprisingly not used at all against Boreham Wood even at 3-0. If my job was on the line over promotion this season and could move him on for a few hundred thousand + add ons without weakening my core squad I can see that being tempting.
I'm not saying we should sell him, before all the fanboys round on me!

Can't see any club paying anything like a few hundred thousand for him.
Only chance is for a very small sum but lots of add ons.

Ponticelli clearly has talent, but it's raw talent. He hasn't shown enough this season to warrant a transfer fee of a few hundred thousand. I think if any bid were to come in, the upfront fee would be minimal as the only real impact he's had this season is against lesser sides.

Baffles me that McNulty gets the stick he does. Looks one of the few players to have an ounce of creativity in him, and he's now getting the goals to back it up.

Definitely would be the logical choice. Knowing our luck at the moment though we'll probably end up bringing in two goalkeepers!

I appreciate he's not the finished article by a long way but the quantity of U18 goals he was scoring was reportedly garnering national attention and 250k for say a Stoke City, West brom, Huddersfield etc to dump him in their developmental side for a couple of seasons is nothing if they feel they can improve on the areas where he is still raw when he has that natural goalscoring ability. Had Cian Harries shown enough for Swansea to pay a fee for him?
