Down from a four to a three after another disgusting deadline day.

Can't wait for that twat Chirper to tell us all that we've had a slow deadline day because our recruitment was perfect so we didn't need anyone.

Apparently we’re announcing Ash Taylor’s replacement from Norwich later this morning so that has to be an improvement. He might be worth half a point.

Sparks -
This summer will not be the rebuild of last year,” added Sparks. “We brought in close to 20 players last summer - that won’t be necessary this time around.
“It will be a slightly different look to the squad and we’ll see where we go with it.
“We’re looking for a leaner and meaner squad and we aren’t a million miles away.
--------
We finished last season probably a few decent signings away from being a top 3 side. So what do we do? Completely chamge the tactics and sign 10 new players...

So what do we do? Sign 10 players... Incompetence from top to bottom. We should have signed 4 or 5 quality players. Centre back, centre mid x 2, 2 quality forward/wide players. That's it. We'd have been sorted.

Said it before but nobody down there has the first idea what they’re doing.

I know age and experience are not barometers of quality on their own, but in Tulloch, Richards, Oyegoke, Ofoka and Wilson we have 5 players aged 19-23 with 0-18 Pro appearances each.
I really hope the likes of Richards and Wilson produce being our permanent signings but it looks like it's probably a load more Nevers, Pererias and Easts that Wrights or Banks.
Smith is 24 but has 110 Pro appearances and 23 National Legaue ones, and Odour is 24 and has 60, with a lot at CH level. But are the younger players listed above just really what we need to get out of L2?
On top of that, I know our own youth development has been lambasted for decades and has rarely benefited the first team directly with players. But we have 2 in Pointon and Youmbi who are seemingly on the first of the first team so what do we do? Sign someone else's young players who will probably be ahead of them. Brilliant.

Thing with these young player loans - I highly doubt we’ve actually scouted them and certainly won’t have watched them play in person. They will have been on a list of players circulated for loan to the lower divisions and we’ll have just picked a few based on their stats, FIFA or Champ Man style.
“Ere look Mark, this one’s got 78 pace”
Pathetic isn’t it.

Clear they're skint so lower wages for a longer deal. Which is why I don't understand the pricing for the cup game. We won't even make 100k a at these prices yet at £15 we would still easily get a crowd of 15k and make more money. Why wouldn't we want to make more money for a warchest in January that we're obviously going to need.

Piss weak strikeforce and lack of goals which we pretty much all called, we've scored 4 goals in 6 games and now Smith is probably out injured for Saturday.
Meanwhile we've got the league's top scorer on loan at another club 👍👍👍

Two forwards out and we’re down to Granny Derbyshire.

Recruitment has been a mess. We've fucked up with our initial targets hence the panicky loan signings.
Nobody can tell me that we targeted any of these loan signings before 2 weeks ago.
Shitshow. Again.

Again. 'on our radar for some time' said a club spokesman. Again. Probably the same spokesman who writes the scripts for the incoming players to say at their first club interviews.
