Dover Athletic manager Chris Kinnear not ruling out signing players in loan window after transfer window deal collapses

Dover manager Chris Kinnear has not ruled out adding to the squad, despite the transfer window closing with no further additions.

Despite adding forwards Tyrone Marsh and Harry Crawford to his ranks, Kinnear said the club were still looking for players after seeing a move collapse late in the window.

He said: “If someone comes up on a loan, then we’d look at it. We are still looking for players. We were trying to get one more in before the deadline but we couldn’t get it done.”

Kinnear also revealed there had been no attempts to prise Ricky Miller and Sean Raggett away from Crabble, adding: “Not one person got in touch with me or the club about any of our players.”

Kinnear said he hadn’t made his mind up yet about how to deploy his array of attacking talent when Guiseley visit in the FA Trophy on Saturday (3pm), with the home Vanarama National League game against Welling on Tuesday (7.45pm).

He said: “We are not many games away from Wembley now. We’re in the last 16, if we can win, it would be the quarter-final. We want to go all the way and I’ll have a look at them in training this week and see who gives us the best chance of winning it.”

Stefan Payne remains unavailable after his suspension was extended by Saturday’s postponement of the league trip to Altrincham.

Aswad Thomas is set to see a specialist after picking up a knee problem, while Jamie Grimes’ groin problem lingers on.
