Got to think one is Saucerman, as been rumoured for a while. Who knows on the other, maybe Scott Allen or Matt Petgrave?

Nope. I'm thinking must be Mclaughlin again but who knows.

Does anyone else find it infuriating the way we go about announcing players? We've got 2 signings for Wednesday morning at 06.00. Obviously they have already signed so why not just tell us like all the other elite league teams seem to do when they sign players.
They don't half mess about at times. It's almost like we know something you don't know.

Well that's true, but why the wait to tell us all?
No doubt it will be 2 returnees who will disappoint us anyway, why can't we follow Belfasts lead and sign exciting new players rather than just old fan favourites

At the moment - if I was a player, I'd rather be joining Belfast or Cardiff as they are winning things.

The minute we start to win things again, players agents will be banging the door down for their player to join Steelers.

So the latest social media from the club says just 1 more spot to fill these players have been announced to unknown clubs in the past few days

Rok Ticar

Luke Adam

https://www.eliteprospects.com/player/13785/luke-adam

They would certainly fit our recruitment specs of ageing European league not many options left, if these two prove to be announced.

I see a good pass first centre and a decent player in the mould of Scott Allen, what I don’t see is two players going to get us 25 plus goals each that we need.

Luke Adam - “somewhat lacking in speed and aggression” so yes it’s likely to our signing
