joey_big_nose Posted 12 hours ago Posted 12 hours ago Like everyone I expected the worst with the massive turnover but still to see any real discernable deterioration compared to last year. Obviously could change when injuries come in etc. But balanced against that we are yet to see much of Gudjonsen and Baradji. Toth alone is a massive upgrade on Pears, and TGH was very decent today. Really like Mori and Alebiouso, McCloughlin. Quote
47er Posted 7 hours ago Posted 7 hours ago The point is we shouldn't have to sell our best players and hope that we can scour the globe and replace them at lower cost to give us a squad as good as we have! Huge gamble to stay where we are!! Our aim should be got improve year on year. We should keep our best players and scour the globe if necessary to make the squad even stronger. Creating a squad as good as we had shouldn't be seen as an achievement. It means we will never leave this league except via relegation. 1 Quote

We thought we were going to be in the relegation conversation last year but finished seventh. I dont think anyone thought we were stronger 12 months ago after selling Szmodics and Wharton. If the question is are we stronger or weaker its within the range of possibility that we are as good, a real stretch that we are better but possible. We just have to wait and see. That said I still want Venkys out obviously, and to have an engaged owner come in, but separate from their lack of support the recruitment team and the manager could have worked miracles again. 1 Quote
