Maidstone boss Peter Nott says his
new-look squad is bigger and stronger than the one he inherited -
and is less expensive.
Just three players who started
Tuesday’s 1-1 draw against Horsham featured in the final game
overseen by Alan Walker and Lloyd Hume, with a host of players
coming in to replace those who have left the club in the past six
weeks.
Among the latest arrivals is
combative midfielder Mark Corneille, who has spent four years with
Bromley after his release from Gillingham.
His former team-mate at Hayes Lane,
centre-forward Adrian Stone, 27, has also joined the Stones.
Their arrivals come hot on the
heels of Andy Walker, Chris Saunders, Craig Stone, Alex Tiesse,
Antonio Gonnella, Gillingham youngsters Dean Vance and Charlie
Stimson, and former Stones youth player Roy Lyall, who is studying
at Loughborough University.
Nott (pictured) said: "The players
have fitted our budget - our reduced budget. When we took over we
were asked to reduce the budget. That happened naturally when the
Margate lads left.
"They were some of our more
experienced and best-paid players.
"Now we have a larger squad for less money. We are getting
stronger."
