I reckon he's only come here because of our training facilities.

He says he wants to be in and around the first team, and impress the first team coaches. Does he realise that, unlike with Fleetwood, our Academy's training set up is quite a few miles away and totally separate from the senior squad's!?!

He knows how many players we have, and that puts him in and around the first team.

That team is in a relegation battle, add to that no options off the bench and it really does look bleak. I think a winger and CB are essential to start the season with

Harsh to say when Coyle, Jones, Giles, Seri, Slater and Omur were regulars/first teamers in a team that finished 7th.

Add to that Pandur who you would hope would be an upgrade on Allsop.

Also when you buy a player to replace one of them, they don't magically dissappear- they become the depth.

If we can get 3 or 4 through the door before the season starts with more to come before the deadline I'll be reasonably happy.

Macca and Longman have proven themselves as championship squad players too. Maybe not top 6, but not relegation either.

Simons isnt proven, but suspect Slater will play instead who is proven. And I have reservations over Pandur so until I see something different I'd say that was the only glaring weakness in that 11. It's not a top 10 side, but not relegation standard either.

I can’t believe the crap being lumped on Pandaur he’s done nothing wrong to any degree yet already like Meyler and Longman etc he’s done before he’s started. Goalkeepers make obvious errors , outfield players have the cushion of someone covering their backs . Some of you ought to use some of your vitriol for the massive social issues we have that you darent mention . Or work harder so you don’t have all that brain capacity to expend . It’s boring reading it , he’s a young guy doing his best . Get a proper perspective .

There's no crap being lumped on Pandur from me per se. Just haven't seen anything to suggest he's an upgrade yet. Still hasn't played a game at this level. The others are known quantities and that XI should at least avoid relegation. Obvs we haven't got the depth to cope with any injuries at the moment though.

Nail on head we haven’t seen enough of him yet , I’ll back the nay sayers if he proves to be a dud , but it’s the clubs fault in that instance not the keepers if he’s done his best . He’s very young , and we slaughter older experienced ones , one of our recent keepers I don’t think ever saved a pen for anyone - he moved first every time !! Barely a murmur. I get the frustration with the lack of signings but it’s entering the realms of negativity big style and any prospect reading the site might not be so keen .

That's a bit of a joke though when we've had the full pre-season.

Tim could be under an awful lot of pressure by that point. It's a complex style to learn and not something that can be done overnight. He needs 4/5 decent players in before Bristol City so he's got a fighting chance.

With these pre season games, he could be starting the season under pressure from the fans. We desperately need a left sided centre half, a holding midfielder, a box to box midfielder and at least one winger to make it competitive. There's no time for patience, they've had months to prep this.

Not helped by an owner who lets it be known that anyone who wants to leave can do so (after already losing Carvalho, Morton and Delap). It gives their agents carte blanche to tout them around whilst at the same time depressing their value. Once all our top players have left at cut prices, others start getting angsty and question where the club's heading, it also means the club is a less attractive place for potential signings, a situation that I'm sure the new manager was not anticipating. The last time we were approaching a new season with so few first teamers we were relegated. I sincerely hope Acun and Tan know what the **** they're doing.
