    Just the 9 strikers brought in since he's been here, with an apparent 10th set to join in the next few days.
    Now that's a fact.

    You don't know him at all. It's not his bank either, it's either KLDs or the clubs. Please learn about football before you sprout your nonsense about it.

    We have made a loss in the market since Speakman has came in. Please explain that.

    Can’t see it. Chilwell would cost a few quid and they’ve already got Hall who’s a good player.

    I do, but no need to say he is a top bloke, when he ain't.
    That's not just my opinion ask any agent or coach who has dealt or is dealing with him.

    If he was such an arsehole, why are many of our top young players signing contracts with us?

    Clarke is a trickier one given he has plenty of premier league and overseas interest, but even then - Rigg did too.

    Utterly ridiculous now how folk continue to bash away at Speakman when every single sand grain of evidence points to a fella that’s done great work.

    Sign players, improve players, keep players.

    Everything about the club and playing staff whilst he has been here has improved.

    These actually are ‘facts’. The evidence is wide openly in front of us, and is reiterated every single time one of our players speaks about the club.

    He doesn’t need to be a sparkling personality. To be honest though when you see him interacting with folk it is nearly always 2 way smiles so I’d imagine that is fabricated bullshit as well.

    Mistakes been made with managers, promptly fixed.

    Few duff signings, but actually increased squad value 100 fold.

    Ridiculous, bordering on preposterous the way folk go on about the bloke.

    I find that very hard to believe. €8m on a striker seems very unlikely

    Squad value has gone up,
    type of players we are signing are better,

    yes some didnt work out,
    doesn't help after 1 league game TM threw Hemir under the bus by saying hes not good enough. ( with others)

    for some, hating Speakman is their whole personality

    No chance we've done that. Wouldn't want them to either.
