    They don't, but in our last two games we'd have had a better chance with a natural striker to offer a different option

    Also

    Speakman has definitely stated this. Off the top of my head I'd say it was in one of the unfiltered podcasts

    We had half a dozen games when Stewart didn't score but we still went up ...

    ... things don't always go to plan.

    It's not fact, it's what you were told, your obsession with Speakman is making you look like a spoilt child who didn't get his own way

    We have some players coming back. Be nice to get them.

    Most people think that mate, but what's the point of going on about it endlessly.

    How many errors of judgement have Liverpool made, or Everton or Newcastle.

    Ok fella. I disagree strongly.

    The fact the club is hanging onto its academy status due to his stewartship.... That won't be his fault either ? Staff on their arse ? Lots of positions unfilled?

    None of that? Or shouldnt I allow that to cloud my judgement ?

    Yeahni am, saw that graeme murty has been appointment in a youth coaches role - unsure exactly what he will be responsible for but heard great things when he was involved in the youth system at rangers.

    I do wish someone at the club would respond to a few scouting reports that I've sent them of exciting players lol

    I.know theres still a few key positions to be appointment but heard 2 will be announced soon, murty is one and the other is a guy from dundee utd

    It is fact. He states that the decision was made based on Simms good start and that options like Dajaku could cove because he did in pre season against Roma.

    Ok then. It's not ITK. Look at the job vacancies. Look at how many times they are out back out.

    Ffs.

    Waste of time unless it's high five these days.

    It isn't up to me or anyone else when or what you post Prehab, I just tried to explain that we all agree we have no recognised striker and we all would have wanted to sign one or two during the window given the circumstances, but that bird has flown and it doesn't matter how many times you mention it, nothing is going to change until January.

    You don’t comment on the good things though. Constantly ****ting on the club its ****ing boring, tedious and predictable
