    07-08 season, Keane in the Premiership, I remember it feeling like everyone was against us, rejected by refs for blatant pens, opposition given gifts constantly yet we still managed to get last minute equalisers and winners, really felt like a siege mentality and it saw us stay up.

    Surely we bring in at least one before start of the season. Our options need improving and the injuries to Alese and O’Nien (and losing Mepham) means we are very light there

    We certainly will mate, you think we'd go into a premier league season with only Ballard and Seelt? Onien and Alese are injured

    What? We are desperate and the club have even acknowledged it. Even Regis le Bris said we need defensive reinforcements and it’s our priority.

    Why would we not bring a CB in :D

    Not bringing in a CB would be negligent so I doubt we don't bring one in. RLB wants defensive reinforcements, he said so himself. We have Ballard and Seelt as the only fit first team CBs with O'Nien, Alese and Hjelde (if he's classed as one) injured. That stable wasn't seen as enough last season with Mepham coming in so unless they see Seelt making a huge jump straight off the back of a big injury we'll bring in at least 2.

    Agree, reckon they will be wanting at least 2 but who knows what's pans out. However, we have started doing business early so can't see them not getting two across the line!

    Being told we were useless last season did us no harm so they can all crack in with their opinions.

    I hope the oppo writes us off in advance as well.

    I agree, we need diarra-like investment in our defence

    That’s how I’ve viewed it too, similar to midfield. One mega money one cheaper so far

    Aye I'm excited to see what these lads can do and quietly optimistic, but there's a very real chance they can't hack it in the Prem, especially immediately. I don't think it's a stretch (or insulting) for rival fans to assume we're going to struggle lol

    Diakite as the big investment, then Aguerd if that £8m fee is to believed as the smaller investment.
