That's fair enough but what's stats don't tell you is our final ball, set piece delivery was absolutely abysmal. 11 corners, might aswell have had none.
I do agree with you TC, I am making the point that no one will queue up to sell us their assets in a dog eat dog world.
The one thing I would say is Broadhead was excellent yesterday and we should have snapped him up if/when we had the chance
He turned us down last summer apparently, concerned he wouldn't get in the team ahead of Stewart and Simms. He was less than impressive at Wigan and I think the club passed on him in Jan when he was made available for permanent transfer.
Bit of an odd one
I watched Simms yesterday, he was dogshite
Could be he had something to prove yesterday, it will be interesting to see how he gets on the rest of the season.
Staying fit will probably be the biggest challenge.
He got through some graft yesterday that I hadn't noticed at the game but spotted it when I watched the recording of it last night.
The plan was to be in the Premier League within 5 years we have had 2 years and missed out by a fraction, we are still on course to hit the target that was the initial aim, so proves the model is working so far, the owners and recruitment team aren't going to change the set up of their plan that they will look at as a success so far because some fans think we should be in the Premier league.
An average gate of 35000, at an average ticket price of £25 gives a total of 21M I've got no idea how much it cost to just run the stadium on a match day let alone the club as a whole but I bet there's not much left.
It doesn't really matter how many fans come through the gates as to revenue as that's not where the club make the money from, I'm not sure why after so long in L1 some fans think after 1 season in the championship we should be straight back in the Premier League, we over achieved last season and as I say we are still well on course for the target set by the owner when he first took over
Damn... When I saw so many new posts thought we'd signed someone 
Wonder which experienced established championship strikers were available to us this summer and their respective fees it would cost to bring them in because I’d be surprised to get a 15 goal striker for under £10m from other championship sides. Also, what if the club believe Stewart will be staying? TM comments make me think he will be, are the club going to spend big on a position they think we already have a quality option in even if he’ll miss the first couple of months, I don’t think so. I think we’ll get a striker in but don’t think it’ll be someone with championship pedigree. Hemir was poor yesterday, it was clarkes decision making and the teams deliveries that cost us yesterday in the final third imo.
Baffles me that people are blaming the striker when we didn’t put a single decent ball into the box for him or play him through when he made a good 3-4 runs in behind first half.
If Pritchard started the match he would’ve created chances for Hemir.

We had the chance previously to sign him, not sure if it was permanent but he chose to go to Wigan on loan
I don't know why we didn't sign him, I read a few things in the media which I am reluctant to believe, but if as you say he chose to sign for Wigan over us then it was his choice and he had his reasons.
& years before we signed Ekwah for the CM position that we had desperately needed
I think Gooch, Batth are gonna leave. I'm sure there will be one or two others like. I guess Dagba replaces Gooch, Rusyn replaces Lihadji, Abline replaces Geldhart, and then Evans and Matete are crocked
