Theres nothing Jos can do, we lack any creativity, drive and energy. Not many managers wouldve been able to work wonders with this team

Completely understand Jos waiting to get a proper look at the team before getting anyone in and spending from now till July working out who he wants and what we need. However it was a great opportunity to loan a few players and see if they fit the club. We needed pace and we needed wing backs

The only position im remotely happy with is GK. It completely depends which players start turning up now theres a new manager and the system changes. Is Rhodes gonna start firing? Is abdi gonna be the player we all thought he was going to be? Is the entire back 4 gonna continue to be absolutely poo ?

Wont happen. 1) derby wouldnt want to lose him, be stupid to send him back 2) why would winnall want to go from table topping derby who play expansive football to come back to toxic football at hillsborough where he'd probably still be on the bench if hooper/rhodes are both fit

Pearson, megson or pulis for me. Whoever it is I hope its only till the end of the season and we reassess then

Zero harm in giving him till the end of the season to see if he can turn it around

Westy Hunt Lees Loovens Fox Lee Jones Bannan Hooper Rhodes Nuhiu Dont even bother giving me grief for including big dave, im SOOO bored of our attack he's 100% worth a shot

Not very hard to understand really. The club dont want to sell the restricted view tickets because its not very fair on whoever buys them. So they hold them till the demand is at the highest point possible and release them explaining that they are restricted view seats. The reason they wait is because people could potentially buy tickets, thinking they are normal kop tickets when theyre not, theyre restricted views. Bleedin chansiri trying to be nice, what an out of order bloke

Butterfield was good a few years ago, career has stalled like alot of players whilst at Derby. A move could get the best of him. Good move for Winnall, gives him a chance to get games. Was never gonna get in infront of Hooper/Rhodes/Fletcher and is too similar to Rhodes, when those 3 arent working we may aswell try Nuhiu/Joao. Also with FF staying, im assuming the deal was that winnall had to go. I dont particularly agree with that as I think FF was in the wrong, but if it gets the best out of him then a firing FF is more important to us than a firing Winnall. If he scores goals, we can get a big fee from someone like Derby. Or he moves up the pecking order here.

I read somewhere on here from a herenveen fan saying he started as a LB and thats why hes so good on the ball?? Could be testicles just what id read

Am I allowed to say that I've ended up happy with our recruitment??? We've signed two seemingly decent, experienced centre backs to fill our biggest flaw in the team. Now assuming he plays reach LB or that new german bloke (who used to be a LB) that leaves us with a pretty solid defence which could open us up to play the attacking football we all want. Now yeah id have preferred some pace but whats point in buying it if we dont use it?? The situation with FF is a weird one, I dont really know whether I wanted him to stay or not and Ive gone past caring aswell tbh. Can we have positive thoughts yet or are we still signing madine and GTF?
