We have a squad big enough and good enough to remain competitive this season. ="When the team can be arsed we are competitive, although I have to admit, I have cancelled appointments for specsavers for the last 10 months"
We will continue to develop our youngsters and add to them if the quality is identified. = We have the training facilities but unfortunately our scout has too much area to cover".
We will be trying to buy young players who have real EPL potential. As in the first question/answer, we will not pay exorbitant prices for something that is not a cast Iron certainty".
We will only buy players for the first team squad who are better than we already have. = Which leaves a lot of players out there we need, but it sounds good when I say it fast".
We have identified two positions where we need to strengthen in depth and we will hopefully have them into Gawthorpe before the January window closes. = "Again my eyesight is not good but 2's a good number, and hopefully if we can raise our poor first, second, third and fourth offer quick enough to match their valuation we'll have them in by the last day, and hopefully Dyche fit to play by May".
Sounds like a plan to me! = "I'll swallow anything they feed me, Anything".
