Turner still hopes for more new faces.

Graham Turner is still hoping to bring some fresh faces to Edgar Street.

"I thought I had got one definitely coming last weekend, but he has now chosen to go up and play in the Scottish Premier League for a decent club up there," Turner told BBC Hereford and Worcester this morning.

"I can understand that but it was one of those occasions when it was all lined up and he was going to come to us, but then something else emerged at the 11th hour."

Turner said he is still chasing players and might also use the loan system.

"We are still working on it - the deadline has been extended until Monday for permanent transfers and then seven days after that we can start emergency loans should the need arise.

"We obviously need strengthening and we obviously need the boost in confidence that new faces can sometimes bring to those around them."

Turner revealed a little more deal about new signing Stephen O'Leary.

"He's been with us for a couple of weeks and has played a couple of games.

"One was against Team Bath and one against Villa reserves, so we're pleased to have him on board."
