- 30 June - Further transfer activity, Steve Jones
arrives from Swansea City on a free transfer. The right back, who began
his career at Cheltenham, was manage by Jan Molby in the Dane's
days in charge at The Vetch. Jones has signed a two year contract
to keep him at Aggborough until 2003. Meanwhile, Molby is still
hopeful of bringing Sam Shilton to the club in the next few days.
- 29 June - Neil MacKenzie has finally signed a
one year extension to his contract, the last player to do so from the
current squad. An Molby has been in further talks with players
that he hopes to bring in, Sam Shilton, son of former England
goalkeeper Peter, is amongst them having been released by Hartlepool.
Daniel Hall from Coventry City is also a target but is being
courted by a number of clubs.
- 27 June - Harriers sign Danny Williams
from Wrexham on a free transfer to a two year contract. Williams is a Welsh under-21 international
who started his career wth Liverpool. Jan Molby feels that
he will add a strong physical presence to Harriers' midfield. Ironically,
Williams is not one of the players that Molby admitted an interest
in last week.
- 19 June - The draw for the First Round of the
Worthington Cup has paired Harriers with last season's Division
1 play-off losers Preston at Aggborough. In a new
look to the competition, the opening round will be played over
one leg, and will finish on the night.
- 15 June - Harriers have today been linked with
Wolves goalkeeper Mike Stowell who has been released by the Black
Country club. Blakpool are favourites to sign the keeper, however.
Also, Harriers have added a further friendly to their pre-season
programme, travelling to Nuneaton on August 4 as part of the deal
whih brought Andy Ducros to Aggborough.
- 14 June - As I suggested yesterday, Jan Molby
has today denied that he hs any interest in re-signing James
Collins. Also, Chris Lightfoot has reportedly said that Harriers
are his first choice for next season despite offers from Shrewsbury
and Leyton Orient. This is bound to increase speculation that
Craigh Hinton is on his way out of Aggborough.
- 13 June - The latest rumour surrounds former
Harriers James Collins who has been released by Crewe, and Jan
Molby is said to be keen to bring him back to Aggborough. Although
he is a left-sided player, which is one of the types of player
Molby is after, it is unlikely that there is anything in this
story.
- 9 June - Harriers chairman Lionel Newton was one
of 71 chairmen out of 72 who voted against the Conference's proposal
for two promotion places at the Football League AGM.
- 5 June - Daire Doyle has finally agreed to his
contract extension. He will remain at the club until the summer
of 2003. Jan Molby has said that he has made offers to several
as yet unnamed players, and is waiting for their answers. One
of these may be former Walsall player Bjarni Larusson, although
Molby was not prepared to confirm or deny this. Also, Tim Clarke
has returned to one of his former clubs Halesowen Town.
