Having spoken to dozens of players in recent days he has begun to get some to commit.
As ever there are those who want to keep their options open and those that are on holiday but Freck was pleased to announce that he had secured the services of Andy Hutchinson, fighting off Gainsborough Trinity in the process.
Hutch said, "I am looking forward to the challenge and working with the new management team. I have set a target of 20 goals having been frustrated by injury last season."
Just hours later Freck announced that the now experienced Sean Cann had put pen to paper for the Whites.
