Kopparberg Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Has it been discussed how he seems to like to sign a few Christian players.  (I’ve been off the site for a month or so) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheEnchanter Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Moore is in an ugly situation. It looks like 2-3 will still leave the club and we only have about 16-18 first team players anyway. I think we need another 6 through the door with less than 3 weeks until the first league game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwellOwl Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Glad to hear it, let's hope we can get the players in sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sefton owl Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Would hate to see him leave but if/when bannan goes that will definitely free up money to get some new additions.  If we are going to sell him, we need to do it sooner rather than later to give us some time to actually go out and get some new players rather than leave it til the last minute which we seem to always do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0742 Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 He doesn't seem happy about it and it again shows that the club is not operating optimally, we're still operating under restrictions, which seem to be self imposed now. Â Yet some people still think we're going to be pushing for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pat blondeau Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 We’ve lost 14 of the first team squad since last season:  Westwood, Odubajo, Penney, Lees, van Aken, Ozaze, Pelupessy, Shaw, Brown, Harris, Kachunga, Reach, Marriott and Rhodes.  And so far we’ve only brought in 3 replacements Brown, Adeniran and Shodipo.  Doesn't take Columbo to work out we’re short on numbers. And the season starts officially a week on Sunday 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 Doesn’t sound too impressed.  Quite rightly too.  Season kicks off in a couple of weeks and need a new No.1, a proper centre forward and a few more to make us a competitive squad.  Moore made it clear he wanted players in as soon as possible to give us the best possible chance to prepare during pre season. Sounds like the club dragging its heels and putting us on the back foot in the market yet again. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post sheffield_dave Posted July 20, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted July 20, 2021 He's right, and I'm glad he's said it because some need to hear it in black and white for their own expectations.  As things stand right now, I don't think we have a competitive team for a full season of League One football - nevermind the cups. We're not ready. We're throwing kids into it regardless of if they're ready because we need them to. We're filling gaps with whatever we can. We've got entire position groups that remain woefully short of numbers and quality. We can just about field a first XI that might be able to compete based on the likes of Windass, Bannan and Iorfa - players who realistically might not be with us for the full stint. Lose those players, or others through injury or suspension, and we're down to the bare bones.  People will point to the youth.. but for me there's a thin line between playing young players because they're ready and the opportunity is there, and throwing them in at the deep end to fill blanks or carry the first team because there's nobody else. We're straying too far into the latter. We need 5-6 of those youth players to come in and immediately exceed at first team level. It's not realistic and it's not fair on them.  It's good that we made a couple of signings recently but.. for me we are still miles off. And I'm not talking about miles off from promotion, I mean miles off just being able to tread water, compete week-to-week and form some groundwork to build off in future years. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
