Anyone else feeling massively deflated right now?
Last week I was buzzing for the new season...not so much anymore.

Definitely need at least 2 more in now, maybe 3.
Yeah I am. A lucky in off your arse 1-0 will sort things out.
As for whether he is looking for a specific replacement for Bayliss, he said: “I am looking for a number of things but it might be a good idea to wait for a little while just to see how we start off and what we might be needing.
And you know what...you're absolutely right!Edited for you
Allen seemed to be his replacement as bayliss wasn't playing pre season?
This is my thinking. We've had two top targets to address our glaring weakness: Walker = failed to sign. Bright = failed to sign (so far).Not very optimistic at all. Think there are at least 6-7 sides in this division who are comfortably better than us, and another few who are at least on our level. We've utterly failed to address any of the issues the squad had last season and seems to have just just churned things around with a lot of like for like players. Robins has a lot of work to do to bring in three players who'll increase the quality of the first team but it seems like a tall order. And to top it all off, we're playing in Birmingham.
Just because we didn’t score many last season it doesnt mean they won’t score this season. We finished 8th scoring a low amount of goals. If we only concede the same amount as last year and score a few more then 6th is achievable.This is my thinking. We've had two top targets to address our glaring weakness: Walker = failed to sign.

I love the signings of Allen, Jobello and McFadzean. But the thing that screwed us last season was not being able to take our chances. And nothing has changed on that front.
EDIT: And it seems like we're just waiting for a decision on Bright, which doesn't fill me with any confidence that we won't be left scrambling for a replacement if it's bad news.
Unless Baka has turned into a lower league Drogba over the summer, there's nothing to say we will somehow add 20 goals to our tally.Just because we didn’t score many last season it doesnt mean they won’t score this season.

Very, now the news of kanstaneer and Allen both being out for a bit and walker going lincoln has put a right downer on my mood.
Only 7-10 days it said but you know how are injuries go.Allen out for how long?
Yep, we're back to finishing 17th if with the current squad:
Lack of goals
Lack of cover in midfield
Lack of creativity
Lack of optimism, all in front of tiny crowds in Birmingham. Grim.
Completely unconvinced by Robins' comments which seem to be contradictory. On the one hand he wants 3 players but on the other:
Blooming heck bet you're fun at parties?
Lack of goals? Because we sell Chaplin?
Lack of cover in Midfield? Because we sell Bayliss?
Lack of creativity? Who?
This is Div 1 we need players who are capable of getting us out this league so that we don't have to sell our academy players. Bayliss and Chaplin would never help us to get out of this league. They possess skills not needed in this league.
Don't jump into the canal just yet, let's wait and see where we are, and who we get in, in the next month.
Should have held on to Bayliss until we'd agreed to sign replacements. It is pathetic.
