    Imagine the mindset if that happened, plus Key, and Defoe, either now or in January.....

    Agree, and as you say it's all about opinions. Perhaps if current managers placed more trust in youth, rather than price tags the game would be a better, fairer sport. I'm old enough to remember Adamson chucking the kids in in 76/77 and the performances they put in was phenomenal. Halcyon days.

    What’s the obsession with Defoe returning?

    Not that I think he'll end up returning but imagine him in this division even at his age? He'd have an absolute field day

    That and the influence he could have on all the players, especially the strikers.
    Blokes a role model professional.

    Agreed, I just feel there’s absolutely no chance. Literally zilch.

    What a roller coaster that season was. Bumped into quite a few of that team in my time, and decent lads they were.
