For these Welsh League players we should be using Carl Darlingtons knowledge from his time at TNS to highlight players from the WPL we should be signing.

He must have missed out on his targets as he would have had them in by now. Also Young was signed weeks ago, so I presume he was looking at other targets at that time too.

Ricketts did originally say that the type of players he was after were typically league players who may be weren't first choice at their team. So you'd imagine those players would be taking their time to sign for someone else, particularly if they are under contract till end of June. Also loan players won't be coming in till later either will they?

I'd have liked us to have signed more than Young up till now. But some of the opinions expressed on this thread and others have been way OTT in my opinion.

Possibly, I'm sure we will be able to figure it out by the calibre of squad we have come August. I'm feeling pessimistic about the situation. Just hoping Sam has some really good targets that he's just had to wait until July to sign...

Can anyone think of a decent player in the past 3 - 5 years that we signed in July or August?

Only one I can think of is Manny Smith (when Wilkin signed him in August 2014).

Next week is becoming critical.

Beat me to it! I guess the contagious hysteria amongst some folk will cause chaos at the Maelor A&E, as their high blood pressure causes their brains to explode.

And all for the want of more info and the lack of patience.
