From memory they didn't have too many recruits join this year so could be looking to grow the talent within the FC.
Boys are happy with what they've done in the early stages of the preseason - some players coming back.
A bit of height is the imperative.
Obviously, more work to do but the EFC are feeling confident that they're on the right path.
You're my only friend, and you don't even like me.

Steve Gannell returning to the Farmers. Massive pick up for them and great to hear the big fella coming back.
