If Hiwula gets injured, the 2 foreign wingers are both duds and there are no significant attacking signings.If hiwula has a bad injury we will be in a relegation battle with this squad
No, Robins said he’s fit. He had an injury in preseason.Rose?
Is hyam injured?
Odd shmee went with rose thenNo, Robins said he’s fit. He had an injury in preseason.
The fact is we’ve sold 2 players and another loanee has gone all of whom are valued by championship clubs at one million.
We’ve signed players at scratch fees
So either these clubs are stupid or we are delusional
Who have we signed for scratch fees?
Allen and the two foreign imports will be for far less than one of the players we’ve sold combined
It’s very concerning isn’t it if these overseas signings best option is a 3rd tier club in a foreign country.
Our fans were excited by Meyler when anyone with half a brain could see the only reason he came had to be he was a washed up has been

You’d have to be a special kind of asshole to take the time and expense to travel to st Andrews, pay to park the car, get to the ground nice and early etc, only to persuade others that have done the same, to not go in!Someone said yesterday there will be protestors outside urging people not to go in - I assume that’s bollocks isn’t it?

Foreign imports tend to be a lot cheaper than domestic players. So there's the possibility that we could get a bargain.
With Thomas (Chaplin and Bayliss too), as with all young players, lot of his transfer fee would be based on potential ability than actual ability right now.
We've gone for slightly older players in their mid-20s.

I doubt we’ll see much of Kastaneer, the bloke has a consistently poor injury record across his whole career and has already picked up one here. Screams of 10 league appearances and loaned back to Europe in the summer.
Why's that a problem?
Allen scored 8 goals last season, more than double Bayliss and has played in the Championship. Thomas scored 5, which I think Kastaneer and/or Jobello will equal, Kastaneer has had two 1 in 4 seasons in the Netherlands. Both the foreign wingers were capped internationally at age-group level and have played in the top, or 2nd division in their respective countries. They should have something about them in the English third division.
We survived when Thomas went, and we survived when McNulty left. When Maddison left, we found Stevenson, then Bayliss and have promising young players in our academy. It's not the end of the world.
These promising young players we had are replaceable for our current standard. However, I'm frustrated we can't have these players help us get us out of this division and help us in the Championship.
Another one who reads a few stats and has zero knowledge - Allen played in the championship - so did Roy O’Donovan
I’m sorry but that is utter bollocks

Bleeding hell m8 maybe the canadian air turns you pessimistic. What you like to do if we win? Seal bashing?If Hiwula gets injured, the 2 foreign wingers are both duds and there are no significant attacking signings.
He’s played 75 games in 6 years and has never played more than 21 games in a season in his career.He rolled his ankle! Not a sicknote injury, just something that happens!
Compare Allen and Bayliss from last season: Allen scored 8 goals, Bayliss scored 3. Bayliss had 1 more assist.
you can watch it on ifollowSat in Mallorca at the moment so SA will be a little far but will be finding a beverage house to watch the results coming in! Play up sky blues!

I agree with you but i dunno if read too much into robins press conference but seemed like he felt kastaneer didnt need thr timr out hes getting due to injuryHe’s 23 years old. So 6 years ago he was 17. I don’t know his development but if he’s been playing in top divisions and then he’s come to us, I’m not that surprised if he hasn’t had much game time. Still young-ish. Couple of injuries. We’ll see how this year goes, but like I said, this was him going over on his ankle, not muscular.
PS you got those stats from wiki, I’m guessing. Not exactly totally reliable.

As in maybe he is too fearful over his own fitness and recovery timesAs in he’s fit?
I imagine it will be be 433 with no number 10. So we need the misfielders to be box to box and lots of responsibility on wingers to create chancesMarosi
Dabo McF Rose Mason
Westbrooke Kelly
Jobello Shipley Hiwula
Baka
i.e. Swindon with Westbrooke for Allen.
alternatively switch Shipley and Westbrooke as the latter is a more penetrative passer.

Like insaod could be reading way too much into ot
You misunderstood. I was responding to Grendel saying we’re a Hiwula serious injury from a relegation battle. These are what has to happen for relegation battle to be possible imo.Bleeding hell m8 maybe the canadian air turns you pessimistic. What you like to do if we win? Seal bashing?
Nothing Robins said suggests anything like that:As in maybe he is too fearful over his own fitness and recovery times

I dont think i could have put any more disclaimers on it to say perhaps i was reading between lines too much!Nothing Robins said suggests anything like that:
"Gervane is one of those who has picked up a significant injury to his ankle when we played at Rugby Town,”
" He went over on his ankle and hasn’t trained since but has been improving slowly and it isn’t as bad as we feared it could have been so hopefully he will be back in the next ten days to two weeks."
There's no lines to read between...I dont think i could have put any more disclaimers on it to say perhaps i was reading between lines too much!
