...we aren't doing too bad are we? 6th in the league and playing very good passing football, creating plenty of chances (unfortunately at this moment they don't seem to be on target) and with many opponents stating that we are the best team they've played... are we falling into this trap of spending millions in the overpriced market. Pearson did very well in putting together a good young side without blowing great amounts of money, and now NB has inherited the squad, surely we could carry on in the same way without wasting millions. If we can keep the core of the team together, loose a bit of deadwood, free up some salary to strengthen in depth in the same mould as NP did, then just carry on as we were, slowly but surely, onwards and upwards.
We aren't doing too bad are we?

Just a thought like <whistle>

What you said in the second paragraph says it all and is the reason we haven't a hope in hell of returning to the Prem unless we get a striker that can consistantly hit the target. Sorry we can not expect Koren to bang them in all the time

We defo need a striker but I prefer the passing rather than the shooting every 2 minutes

I'd take the shooting everytime if it hit the back of the net but agree passing has been a bit wayward recently. Especially the ****ing hoofball against Boro
