We weren’t and we were sliding. Since we signed Harris and he has started we have been unbeaten.
We were solely reliant on McNulty creating and scoring his goals. Biamou has been a disaster.
We were top 6 with biamoi pretty much and we are top 6 without him
No regrets about playing him
It's clear that the reason we ended up with Biamou was financial .We weren’t and we were sliding. Since we signed Harris and he has started we have been unbeaten.

Brought on a few Injuries as well but has provided funds .Robins and the team were distracted by the cup run. That led to slide. Since Brighton we have looked far better as a side.

Had we recruited a JCH type in the summer most are concluding we'd be right up there.
So would MR then be a great Manager and No taxi required just joshing there.
So the query has to be given the constraints, where in the budget and squad could we have engineered the current squad.
I don't particularly think anyone should get hung out to dry but Vincenti and Beavons in particular could have altered things.
Or the retention of Stevenson until this January or Not selling Lameries or Haynes, those funds would have enabled a decent No9 .

I get you’re not a fan but Biamou holds the ball up well/retains possession and works his arse off. Still a useful player. I thought Robins should’ve brought him in on against Luton Tuesday with 15 mins left, might’ve helped us hold on as JCH (and to a lesser extent McNulty) were flagging
Yeah without the cash we might have had to sell sell sell.Brought on a few Injuries as well but has provided funds .

You've misunderstood my point .I disagree. We could’ve signed Williams from Doncaster had they not changed their mind and kept him. We signed Beavon up to a new contract and when we signed Biamou, Robins went out of his way to say ‘he’s a development player’ in a similar vain to how Hyam was signed. Beavon has fell out of favour, and injuries have forced a changed in tactics and personnel. Biamou scored, about 17 in about 46 odd games last season in a division below us, I don’t think Robins expected him to have only scored 1 league goal to date...
To be even more pedantic, if it was financial, Biamou wouldn’t have been one of the first signing through the door. Secondly, we wouldn’t have agreed a deal to sign Craig Davies (who turned us down) nor would we have signed JCH in the first place.
You've misunderstood my point .
I haven't suggested we signed Biamou as cost cutting, I'm saying he played so much because those others weren't recruited because of financials.
The January connections who ultimately allegedly turned us down were suppossdly available due to funds from the FA Cup run which MR said he was getting .
We're told the fee for JCH will be paid in the summer because of SCMP, at least that has been one of the suggestions.
The extension for Beavon has been a poor call and those funds should have helped recruit some quality for the position IMO.
He seemed behind Kwame Thomas at one point, but we all know how that one panned out.Dont thobk biamou was ever supposed to be first choice this season. Have to cut him some slack
And there is chance he will still come up trumps in final 9 games if we require it at any point.
Hes got better at pressurinf and running at defenders imo. Interested to see how he does next season(hopefully in league 1)
Even when it was shut he preferred him to Nazon and he played him ahead of Clarke Harris when he first arrived.
That’s rightNazon was a cock and JCH was not fully fit for the first two games.
I agree MR showed excessive loyalty to Biamou but Biamou gave his all for the team. Might not have been to the standard required but gave it his 100% best.
He has 3 asssists in 37 games.

Lol okI only called one player a cock ( that was Nazon) not players as you suggest
I met Nazon once, but very briefly, so my comment is based on views from others close to the set up.
I have met JCH many times and I personally think he is a good guy who is trying to "cultivate an image" that is not his real character. He had a great reputation at RUFC for being great with kids and the handicapped etc and was always a charming personality and worked hard on community issues. He tries to act the "gangster" in the dressing room environment but it is not the real JCH.
Don't be silly.has anyone at CWR or CT actually asked SMR where we are at with Balyiss contract ?
According to Cov Telegraph he's contracted until the end of next season (with option to extend by a further year). I was under the impression (probably from comments on here) that he was out of contract this summer.
Assuming that the Telegraph is correct (big assumption), that is fantastic news!
I can't see anything in that offal statement that says the length of the contract.
Am I missing something?
But this is the CT. Where have they got that from?No, don't think so. But Cov Tel published this earlier.
"The good news is that Bayliss - who is regularly watched by scouts from all the top Premier League clubs and was the subject of firm interest from Derby County on January transfer deadline day - is contracted for another year with a year's option in the club's favour which they will, without doubt, trigger to take his deal to 2020."
Their source must be Bayliss himself, then, given the club aren't speaking to them!No, don't think so. But Cov Tel published this earlier.
