Didn't bother me that much, they're pretty much dead to me. Definitely highlighted the gulf in quality though.
I would of had him and AA on early doors to be honest. Anyway, back to transfers. Have Ba being seen recently. Disappeared from the face of the earth.
Ridiculous that he’s not getting more game time. I’ve been impressed with him when he’s been involved.
Just looked at promoted teams over the the last ten years and seven are currently still in the top league with five of them in the top half of the league so it shows that survival is not impossible , this is dependent on on how well run your club is , how good your recruitment team is , the financial backing that is in place , the competence of your manager ,and most importantly the quality of of your team and how they can cope playing at a higher level or replacing players that have reached their ceiling .The model appears to be reaping some rewards and meeting some if not all of the above criteria but I do not think we are miles and miles off target so it is achievable.
I think we'd need to add the equivalent of a Bold, Schwarz, Reyna (?) + a goal scorer - - - Not impossible for 100M ? But might not meet the young and resell model.
Playing devils advocate here but was that not due in some large part to the standard of coaching (Beale and Doddsy) and the tactics they were asking the team to adopt. I’d like to think that if we played that game tomorrow then we would see a different standard.
Spot on this, we were right at the start of our freefall with the fiasco that was Beale. Don't think the players were anamoured either.
They’d absolutely murder us. Wouldn’t be a contest. Not worth discussing On to transfers - we’ve drawn 10 of our last 18 games (including the FA Cup). Can we find the quality to bring in to start winning more games? I hope so.
I agree - think it's similar in a way to Forest (obviously we're light years off their level!). I can cope with the idea of us going up and coming straight back down again. What scares me is how our fans will take endless defeats. Some have very short memories
Will cut this short, cousin has a house/holiday rent just outside Durham,which he rents out. He’s been contacted by someone within the club if they can use it for a short 5/6m deal. and asked if he has another one near by they can use. Just waiting on them to reply for more details. if I get anything I’ll post it on
What they asked to rent a house and decided to hoy in that there was a 5-6m deal involved. Sounds about right the way were always leaking our business out.
