Man doesn’t know shit about football.
Speaking about Wright's arrival, Head of Recruitment Greg Abbott said: "Josh comes to us with a lot of experience, and he has bought into what we are trying to do as a club.
"He thinks this is a fantastic football club.
"Josh has over 300 games under his belt at a relatively young age.
"That experience he has can help with some of the younger players within our squad - it is all about getting that right balance.
"He can play in more than one position in midfield.
"He can grab you a goal, but he can also do the other side of the game - he can get about the pitch and he can tackle.
"Josh ticks a lot of boxes, and he will give the younger players that little bit of comfort.
"If and when things get a bit tough - as can happen during the normal flow of a season - he is the sort of experienced player they can turn to."

Chicksen:
Abbott said: "We've looked at Adam's qualities, he's got two great feet, although he comes in predominantly as a left back.
"He gets up and down the pitch well, showing a lot of energy.
"We believe Stuart (McCall) will do what he did with a lot of players last season and get the best out of Adam.
...we want to bring in the right types of people – he certainly fits that bill.

Bruenker:
Kai is a big, strong, powerful player. He is someone who our European scouting network has identified as an option to allow us to rest Charlie as and when needed.
“Kai is another physical option for us in attack. We have sometimes struggled in that department, especially when Charlie has been out through injury.

Tom Clare:
Tom has really got a lot going for him, he’s an 18 year-old lad but is 6”5 and plays like a traditional big number nine.
"He certainly brings something different to the group.
"This club have always had big centre forwards who have that ability to get themselves on the end of crosses.
"From Bobby Campbell to Ron Futcher to Charlie Wyke, Tom is one of that dying breed of tall, physical goalscorers.

‘Exciting trio’ Patrick, Pybus and Gunner:
The three players we have in today (Wednesday), Omari - an attacker - Callum - a box-to-box midfielder - and Tyrell - a really quick attacking defender/winger - all fit into that preferred category, as does Dan Pybus, who we have re-signed for next season.
"Add the likes of Jacob Hanson and Ellis Hudson to that group, we now have a selection of really exciting 18 to 20 year-olds who will hopefully stop us having to use the loan market as much in future."
