What about a 21 year old who’s played for Arsenal and France ? Kid? Is Neil a kid? I don’t want a bunch of grey haired highly payed midfielders. Overall I like this model. I want energetic hungry players better than the lot we’ve got in them key positions that can win games. We need who striker who can play at this level right now of course but that could be a 20 year old from league one who can move and finish better than defenders can defend. It’s become a tired narrative.

I’m not saying sign a squad of plodders, I’m saying that we need a few experienced heads. We can have all the individual talent in the world but if they’re all naive, inexperienced and have no leader on the pitch with them we’ll continue the way we are. Spine of your team should be rock solid and ours is pitiful.

Evans isn’t rock solid.
 
Evans isn’t rock solid.

He’s a hell of a lot better than what’s in there currently. We’ve got a player who’s played about 30 games at CB in his career organising the defence and 3 midfielders with a combined age of about 20 running around like headless chickens at times.

He is but he’s injured.Actually no he isn’t. You think Evans is better than Neil and Ekwah. Would you sign him instead of them if you were another manager?
I think honestly we should have foreseen the length of his injury because he plays an important role but let’s say he’s fit end of feb on good wages and we have two experienced cdms and ekwah Jobe , Rigg, Neil, Pritchard all to keep happy in the centre what then. I partly agree we need more that can play this league and that means played games but it’s not that easy. You’d be moaning Rigg or Ekwah don’t play then.

You know my mate said today, as a club we know how to **** people about and piss them off.
Yes, SAFC has form for that. Apprently, we messed around and broke promises with a left back we were chasing from either Liverpool or Blackpool i think the lad was at.
 
You know why Bob.
Because the top table have an idea we are always right, and KS has lost the plot with this plan.
When he 1st came to the club he was a breath of fresh air.
Even though other coaches at Brum i know told me he was a snake, I gave him my benefit of the doubt.
He has just got way above himself.
 
Direct question. Would you get rid of Speakman and do you think we’d be better for it long term? Or do you think he’s done well
Yes in a heart beat, he got carried away with a bit of success, and it took over, the same happened at Brum with Jude, he has lived on that, and that's how OUR plan evolved.
IN HIS HEAD
 
Can't really blame the club for that if their first choice suddenly became available.
We didnt treat all involved very well...I believe the lad came to SAFC for a few days as well..our handling of the situation was not very professional.
 
Would have brought him on for Bellingham against Hull last 15 we needed something a bit different
I would be starting him ahead of Jobe on Saturday, Jobes battery needs recharging .

Rigg is fearless and can always be replaced at half time if it's not working but the lad always gives 100% and doesn't stroll around likes it's a Sunday league game where everyone has hangovers
