RUMBELOWS91 Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 yep we're basically saying st least a quarter of our squad next season will be inexperienced and not up.to the task of getting us promoted. We are just as likely to be relegated again as promoted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Despite which many people were fooled/misguided/a bit silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
royalowlisback Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 I actually slagged off most of our signings last season, especially Kachunga and got absolute pelters for it, 'give him a chance ffs' etc. If you sign players on a downward trajectory, that is usually where they take you - yes there are exceptions - but if that is all you are signing you are in trouble. I am not naive enough to think we are going to sign players on the rise, but I am not going to do the 'happy dance' either when we sign them.

I'll say again - there was more to relegation than the poor signings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CircleSeven Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Moving away from the endless cum references for a second and looking back at the OP. We have been so swamped with genuinely awful news for so long now anything that isn’t actually terrible news does feel like good news. But you would have to be the most ‘optimistic’ (to the point of delusional) fan to think resigning a few youth players is going to take us up. At this stage I’d settle for not going down and hoping that once the crowds can go back and the wages bill starts to fall we start to look a bit more than of a going concern and someone will take us out of DC’s grip. But definitely no ‘jizzfest’ lined up for this year… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owlinexile Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 All this alleged 'good news' is simply the club managing to do (some of) the basic things that a football club needs to do to keep the lights on. The bar for what constitutes 'good news' must be at an all-time low. Literally the only possible actual good news would be that Chansiri is no longer involved with the club. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
