a couple of other suprise additions
Mark has stated that he is only prepared to bring the right sort of player to the club, one who will improve what we already have here. There are funds available to him to do that, and I trust that he will spend it wisely. We have seen before what happens when managers bring in large numbers of players, who ultimately do not enhance the team.


quote from mcghee....
the only thing im surprised about with this signing is....
1) this keeper has less 1st team experience than walker who we currently have on loan from chelsea.
2) this keeper has also played no 1st team minutes in the football league yet. so gough who has played just 1 game for us in our heavy defeat last game of last season is actually more experienced.
then you get higgs who stated this...
how the hell is this signing right for our club when you see my 2 reasons above? how will he improve what we already have? looks like another signing who will not enhance the team.
