I would never dream of talking to Garry using words that only require two asterisks. Never say never with Boothroyd. We're not as far away from having a squad that he could work with as you might think. He'd love a midfield of Cowie, Deeney, Jenkins and Eustace, backed up by some youngsters who can really play football. He knows what to expect from Loach, Mariappa and Doyley, Taylor is any manager's dream, and we'll be getting a new left back whoever comes in. Sign a couple of battering rams and competition for Sordell, tell Bassini to stop fixing the pitch (even if that is the only good thing he has done so far ) and you've got foundations that Boothroyd could probably do things with.
