From Baz’s reports over the last few day, Simons seems to be a positive so far this preseason
The way Rosenior handled him was terrible
Aye being sent to fleetwood is enough to break any man.
Indeed, especially a 20 year old moving away from home with his girlfriend promising development only to be loaned out to another place 3 hours away.
I'll just leave that there. £40m+ was never going to happen. Based on a £21m operating loss 2 seasons ago (offset by KLP sale) Id suspect around a £25m loss last season. Hopefully salary to revenue is now under 130% so we may stop haemorrhaging money week by week. We don't have £60m to spent and we have 1/2 a team. It could be a very challenging season.
Agreed. We need to think about next season now, bring in players here for the long haul. Build something long term.
Blood several of the youngsters, patience with them, but it’s how we gain new sellable assets without spending. We have real talent in the academy, let’s give them a platform like in recent history
Have a feeling Simons is going to slot in and be as effective as Morton was. Sincere-Hall will be as impactful as Ohio. Perhaps two replacements for nowt!
We don't seem to be though, it'll be 5 loans and the players we've been going for so far are 30+. It'll be same again next year (hopefully a smaller rebuild).
we need players contracted hopefully a good blend. hopefully Walter puts trust into the young players at pre season early doors too
From, living in London and playing for Chelsea, to be persuaded to move up to Hull, then shifted out to Fleetwood, I bet the lad and his girlfriend were delighted.
He seems to have come back with a fantastic attitude regardless, hopefully he gets his just rewards!
I spoke to one of his teammates who he grew up with in the academy and he’s constantly faced talk he’s not good enough but worth ethic has shone through and he’s always proved them wrong as he will Rosenior this season who decided to loan him out
If he has come back more determined than ever to make it, then thats amazing to hear. I think we need to remember that JG was loaned out to Cheltenham. The bad thing about some of the loans (out) last season is who they were actually loaned to.
We've got players with experience though, so I don't think it's something we need to spend big on. I certainly wouldn't be spending seven figure transfer fees on the likes of Moore or Bree.
Bree I disagree, he’s at a good age and is a creative full back.
Missing out on Moore I think is a slight blessing looking at it now, we have the same profile in Oscar but he’s younger so still has sell on value.
The Bree one is odd as it's a position that's not close to being a priority right now, and I thought we'd have gone young and more dynamic and probably a lot cheaper.
Lewie is absolutely fine and it's a position we can look at in 12 months, hopefully, when we have a more settled squad. But for a club that's meant to have tight resources, it just doesn't make sense.
EDIT: Had a look and just saw that he only played RB once last year, assuming because of KWP and he played LB and CB more often. If he's going to be a utility man, it makes more sense.
