New Stockport boss Paul Simpson could include five summer signings when his side begin their npower League Two campaign at Southend. Mansour Assoumani, Mark Lynch, Jordan Rose and Barry Conlon have all arrived at the club since the former Shrewsbury boss took the helm last month. Simpson has also brought Plymouth striker George Donnelly back to Edgeley Park on loan until January. The 22-year-old has agreed to return to County after scoring four goals in 19 appearances for the Hatters during a five-month loan spell last season. Rose is likely to start on the bench but Assoumani, Lynch, Conlon and Donnelly could all be handed starting roles. Midfielder Matty Mainwaring remains the only injury absentee after he suffered a knee injury in a behind-closed-doors friendly during pre-season.
