Agree on a target man I was hoping to see a mobile one come in
Agree on a target man I was hoping to see a mobile one come inHard disagree. Our defence and GK were by far our biggest issue. We lost our strikers due to injury but when they played they were more than good enough, our problem was getting the ball to them in dangerous areas. Our xG was pathetic last season.
We needed to either buy a big man we can lump it up to or massively improve the defence so we weren’t under the cosh the entire time. We’ve done neither.
Yet....
You are aware that there is still way over a month until the end of the transfer window aren't you. If it was the first of September today and our squad was exactly the same I'd be very concerned about the CB and lwb positions so let's revisit this then shall we
Hamer & Sheaf to start in midfield,hoping we see another holding player come in alsoExpecting a LWB and a CB in by next Monday at the very least.
A fit Dabo and Rose should, in part, do this, no?We’re obviously going to loan a CB and LWB in. I hope they’re decent. That will get us back to the defence we had last year, which was pretty poor and needed improving.

In regards to Sheaf I can’t recall seeing him have one stand out game last season tbh 750k on him for me is madness but I accept others see it a lot different,hopfully he proves me wrong this season

Don't mind that, both quality players.Hamer & Sheaf to start in midfield,hoping we see another holding player come in also
Unless they are an upgrade on osti and McCallum of course
Plus we also should hopefully have fully fit rose and dabo back this season which we didn't have at all last season and I don't want to send you into a rage coma but I think we've also upgraded on the gk as well
We also have a team with a years championship experience which will be vital and I'm sure help cut out some of the silly mistakes we made in the first half of the season
Christ, should we just voluntarily relegate ourselves now, and save the embarrassment of being thrashed every week?
Did you see our strikers last season ? It’s the one area that needed sorting probably more than anywhere else,Gyo will be instalments and tbh it’s a good move he’s got potential Waghorn on a free also adds to what we had with max and baka,it’s hardly being wreckless with a budget them 2 coming we should have more in the pot which I’m sure we do,wreckless is wasting a budget he’s being shrewd it takes time I’m certain we will be stronger by the start of this season than when we finished last
How can you say with confidence Moore is on par with Marosi?No it wasn’t, we conceded over 60 goals most of which were comical in fashion. At the moment we have a keeper on par with the one we let go and no replacement for McCallum or Osti

Knew this would be the response.
As I said, we always overspend. Every season. We never end up in the black. We exist entirely at the behest of our owners and have as much money as they give us.
The real question is how do we spend that money and I think it’s fairly clear that with a small increase in budget we could have picked up several players who would return on their investment.

But assuming they’re fit you acknowledge they’ll improve the defence?Concerned that neither Rose nor Dabo got on V Sevilla. I won’t start the Moore argument again but even Robins said he’s there to challenge Wilson not as No 1
Your argument makes no sense at all. The people are saying we need to strive to be self sufficient aren't talking about the past they are talking about now. The clubs just coming out of a groundshare in Birmingham and a pandemic that stopped ticket sales. Sisu are clearly no angels but they have backed Robins in recent years and to say differently is just crap. They have stumped up the good part of 2m this window (Sheaf, Gyo fees) and there is still time for more to join.
Bit extreme just because I thought our defence was a bigger issue than our strikers.
Cardiff fans I’ve spoken to think he was decent, “didn’t let us down”, when he played for them.Preponderance of evidence.
Played L1 most of his career, didn’t get in ahead of Wilson in the first friendly, looked pretty poor, Sheffield Utd fans say L1 is his level.
Don’t underplay it, it’s a constant stream of negative piss when there is still ages to go yet.

Go on mate treat yourself
The fans have stumped up 3m this summer

Or not hence why those clubs that do invest sometimes find themselves like derby and sheff wed whilst others find themselves like Brentford and BarnsleyKnew this would be the response.

You’re saying ‘most’ goals we conceded were “comical”?
Good god this is dreary stuff
Robins didn’tBit extreme just because I thought our defence was a bigger issue than our strikers.
Total myth???? That needs some explanationThat’s right, and all this stuff about bills to pay, losses from St Andrews to cover etc- all a total myth.
Look through all of them and pick out the ones that weren’t down to some laughable mistake. The penalties given away alone should be enough to split your sides

I don’t know what you mean but to be acting like this ages before the season starts, tad extreme tbh
