In fairness, you clearly don’t remember John Anderson if you think he was ****. He won several player of the season awards before moving on.

'Several' player of the season awards between 2002 and 2003 before he went to Bristol you mean?

He wasnt part of the side that eventually got us out of league 2, let alone championship ready purely by virtue of his SPL team of the year award.

Fitness has improved, league position has improved. We have 2 options all over the park except left back where he knew Greaves and Coyle could cover.

Not always perfect options but they were over going to be without signing a dozen or more players.

And we were a lot closer at the end of summer than we were at the end of last season.
We have 2 senior wingers and have played attacking midfielders there far too much.

The focus was on forward areas. You can't sort everything in 1 swoop.
Agree, don’t think the hierarchy will though, they might say they’re happy with top half but they’ll want more now. Billy Sharp wasn’t brought in for a team happy to get top half this season otherwise what’s the point

November acun quote - top. 10 expectation, playoffs would be good, if we don't make it its. OK. just means we're not ready yet.

So we're going after a left back, winger and 'keeper minimum according to Baz and other indications, which is where we all agree the pressing squad weaknesses are.

Why don't you think we' ll address them?

....and yes, the hierarchy will have final say on transfers identified by Rosenior, Darno, Beri. Tan will be doing the deals and Acun signing off on a pre agreed strategy just as they did last summer.

Are we not after a striker anymore then seen as Davis fell through in the summer or is that just Sharp? I’m a big fan of Sharps but a little underwhelming if so.
 
Can we have a thread for real Jan transfer news, and keep this thread for all the other bollocks, conjecture, opinions, etc?
In fact I'll create one, see what happens.

It's the first page of this thread.just check that if you don't want conjecture or debate.

Think priorities might have shifted since then with Christie coming back from Injury running in treacle and Vinagre being sent back.

I expect we'll see a credible option come into the forward line still though.
