wilks and magennis are only recently back from layoffs. honeyman was the best player last season, despite three players scoring in double-figures.
Honestly I don’t think a fully fit magennis and wilks are that much better at this level. I think grant is clutching at the last straw with this one
We should have signed a championship seasoned centre half and a goal scorer that has experience at this level. We’ve gone for youth, whilst I support that strategy it still needed a sprinkle of division relevant experience.
Less is more. I’d rather have signed less players and got more experience through the spine of the side.
It'd be lovely, but we were simply never going to pay for proven championship quality. It's obviously a rule. We wouldn't even pay to keep Reece Burke.
Id say we dont even need a goalscorer, our wide-men will get the goals if we just had someone up top to help facilitate that. I was always a fan of what Nicky Forster brought to the team, think he took a bit of flack for his scoring record though.
And supposedly he was up for coming, but we wouldn't offer as much as Peterborough, which I think puts into context just how meagre our budget is.
