County Twitter says stay tuned for double signing - guessing it might be the Jennings brothers if they are being announced together.

Interestingly worded tweet too. It says "How about kicking things off with a double signing?" which to me would suggest there could be more than just this double signing today!

Interesting. No JG quote on the COWS article, and no picture of Jim with the guys, either. Simon Wilson seems to be very much in charge of this side of things - JG's role seems to be very much Head Coach, doesn't it?
Happy enough with this, but I hope we start to bring some younger players in soon.

I agree JG will be far less high profile regarding the business and far more with on pitch and tactics. Jim is now part of a much bigger executive and management team than has been the case at County for some years.

Well we know there are more to come before Monday from Jim’s squad update yesterday so it’s likely but it could just mean to kick-off the summer signings with a double.

True, just sounds like it's going to be a busy day!

Delighted to bring in Connor but no idea where Jim sees him playing - had played as an 8, 10, 9, 11 and a 7 in the last few years at Tranmere and Wrexham. Would be good to get Jim’s quotes alongside Simon’s as without being disrespectful they are far more insightful for the fans.
Less impressed with a 32-year-old left back, not a bad signing but looks the weakest one since the takeover. I’m hoping we’ll have a young hungry left-back coming in to push him.
Also, no mention of contract lengths in yesterday’s or today’s announcement which is strange - wonder if Sam could give us more details?

I'd have thought that Connor Jennings would essentially replace Lloyd in that LM/LW position. Regarding James, I wouldn't be surprised if there's another left back coming in and James is competition. Now Cowan has gone there's no cover at left back at all so they're going to need coverage there.

If I remember rightly he played mainly off the right last time we had him but that was so long ago. Good to have someone who can play in a variety of positions.
