    Just a thought, but does anybody else think that we could do with a bit more?

    Apologies if it's been brought up before.

    The commentator said it is quite remarkable that the teams average is under 21
    That answers the question, we need a good centre half with old head and experiences and some body in mid field who can control us

    He doesn't even have to be old. Hourihane had plenty when we signed him.

    Sad thing is, in spells, we look decent. 3-4 years in, these lads may we’ll be pretty decent. It’s grossly unfair what the recruitment team have done, naive at best, moronic at worst.

    Such a shame, hope this doesn’t damage some of these lads. Honest triers with a lot of good technique... just far too early for them.

    I've got no doubt whatsoever that they'll set league 1 on fire next year, and win a transfer to a proper championship club.

    Genuine question, do we have a dedicated defence coach?

    Unfair to blame the recruitment team IMO.
    They are just doing what they are told, any blame should be laid at whoever sets out the strategy and signing off selling players and not signing experience. Usually would be a CEO or Director of Football, so guessing as we didn’t have either it sits with Conway.

    Agree with that, everyone one of the new recruits I look at and I think "i can see why we signed him he has potential"
    "Far too early for them" especially en masse

    I've just seen Tom Kennedy and Paul Gibbs warming up and drank a dram of turpentine. I hope I was illucinating.

    Whoever sets the strategy and oversees it is part of the recruitment structure, whether Conway or whoever doesn’t matter a great deal.

    3-4 years. Itll take a relegation and another couple of years under Stendel's coaching for them to be very good players. Oh yeah, then we'll sell them once we come back to the Championship in 2021. Rinse and repeat.

    It’s just smoke and mirrors by the owners, set up for failure in order to reap a few million from transfers summer after next hopefully.
    Killing support for this club, waste a snap the lot of em!
