    I don't dislike any of them as such mate, but I don't see that any of them have improved us to date, apart from the excellent Celutska.

    Giacc should be a leap forward but not as yet, Cabral was quality v Fulham but summats gone wrong, the rest, let's be honest, are pretty standard, no improvement visible.

    None of them are poor, but we haven't improved, so where was the point in the mass signings?

    Hopefully now Fletch is back we'll see an improvement, his movement is fantastic and that could be massive. I do think Ki is a good move, he's a very tidy player, but there's a January recall clause in there, ridiculous.

    Bollocks to this constant fretting about the fixtures ........ we're expected to fail in the next few matches during which we'll get better organised.
    By the time they're over we'll be coming out fighting with a bunker mentality.

    We have some good coaches at the club now, it's not like the old days.

    What do you base that on? I'm gonna call you Second Guess Cest cause it's all you do. Second guess and make angry negative assumptions. I'll defend my club to death mate. You're mindlessly bashing my club without making any attempt to seek reason or solution, even after 17 paragraphs!

    At last, just speaking for yourself!

    If there's a bigger bore than you, on here, I can't wait to see his posts ..... you trot out the same dreary crap year after year with no apparent shame.

    What a misery.

    No it doesnt it means give the ****ers a game whilst they are still enthused and hungry before they start thinking about what could have been if they had accepted a different offer.

    Half of me thinks pdc has used these last few games as a shop window

    Its our club matey and we are all entitled to our opinions.

    If you're happy with the first 4 games of this season and the last 7 PDC had of the last then fine. Or you may not be happy but content to just go along with things in the hope they come good. I on the other-hand have major concerns right now (concerns I raised last season as well by the way) and will continue to offer them on what is after all a bloody footy forum?

    Or is it just a love in for whoever is the manager of the day and where all other dissenting opinions not welcome?

    Fair do's.

    Imo Diakité is an incredibly massive improvement on Bramble and Kilgallon.

    Roberge doesn't seem very good defensively but he'll be handy for home games against certain teams, such as Fulham. With his distribution and composure on the ball his main asset

    Celustka like you said is excellent and it's refreshing to have a proper full back in the team.. just need a lb now

    I can't get my head around Cabral and I desperately want some clarification from PDC on that front

    In terms Jozy and Giaccherini both are improvements on what we had there last season (Graham and McClean) but I think we're yet to see the best from either of them. With Ki brought we now have a proper playmaker, someone to spread play to the wings in an instant not take ages to pick out a pass that moves about 5 yards

    The rest of the signings aren't in contention to start

    What alarms me is why PDC has so far persisted with Ji. Judging though by his post match comments I think for the time being at least we won't be seeing much of Ji

    coz we did our business early i reckon in the most part, and i certainly dont think we are finished.

    think we were very unlucky this week in the fact that jozy and gards took knocks, the sess situation is a mare but has to go (could have done with him today especially in the first half when ji was like rentaghost).

    Fletch showed his class and honestly think if we bring in a lb, cm or 2 and a striker and let vaughan, bardo, ji, sess and maybe larsson go we'll be well on our way

    Yeah I agree on Diakite of course.

    Ji, Larsson & Vaughan, I just don't get why they are getting games mate.

    Then for christ sake ****ing act like it!

    Don't confuse me with someone who is happy with the situation. That's just second guessing again Second Guess Cest. No I'm not happy about things but spitting my dummy won't get me or the club anywhere. Do you remember the state the club was in at the end of last season? IT WAS ONLY 3 MONTHS AGO FFS! Get a ****ing grip Cest.


    What the **** are you going to do about it? Buy the club, appoint yourself head coach and wave that magic wand that only you own? No you're gonna take every opportunity to come on a forum and repeatedly kick the living **** out of the club you profess to love while it's on the floor try to get up.

    As for your opinions and being on a forum? I have mine too, they both come together and debate like now. If we all just agreed with each other it wouldn't be much of a forum would it?

    One thing I've noticed with Celuska mind is he over hits the long ball a lot.
    I know nitpicking again but I did notice it this game and last.
    I'm still fuming Ji ducked out of that brilliant cross too.
