Six new signings needed claims chairman

"We will be looking throughout the summer to add at least half a dozen players throughout the whole team," Mandaric told the club's official website

"We want a keeper to be pushing Shaka Hislop and then we want that added bit of class in key positions all over the field.

"We should also recognise the tremendous effort of those who have secured promotion for us and they will all be there with the chance of prolonging what they have started.

"We now want to build a squad capable of holding their own in the Premier League and our first aim is to take 40 points from our first season to announce our arrival."
