    I just feel the level of 'oven ready players' we could attract wouldn't boost the quality much ...

    ... and we couldn't afford to buy the likes of Jobe, Mayenda, Mundle, etc as the players they've become.

    I agree there'll be some who just don't work out but the quality level seems to gradually increasing ...

    ... not that you'd have believed it yesterday <laugh>

    Exactly. A much needed rest, just won’t happen with Jobe.

    Rigg suffering more from his sheer lack of manliness than his engine.

    You probably know this but I’ve just noticed that the team which beat Coventry 2 - 0 on Tuesday was Derby, currently in the relegation zone.

    It’s the best league the Championship, anything can happen.

    Didn’t have a touch of the ball for the first 20-25 minutes and when he did he gave the ball away not my say so but the SAFC commentary and then has to make comments about the team’s performance not being good enough .
