What say you mon ami ?
The plain and simple truth sinkov is Garlick's refusal to improve on the likes of Lowton, Long, Gudmundsson, Barnes, Westwood and Cork during his tenure has left us in the $hit.

Pace brought in Roberts (not sure if he is an improvement on Lowton), Collins (who will replace Tarkowski), Cornet (who is still not "Dyche Fit" by the way, according to Dyche), Weghorst (because we had too), but at least the Yank is trying, which is more than can be ever said for Garlick.

The appointment and ultimate failure of Mike Rigg has cast a long shadow over this squad, a lack of investment and buying the likes of Dale Stephens is the reason we are going to be relegated, and not your age related concerns of the birth years of players such as Jay Rod, Bardsley and Pieters.

Pieters by the way, let Salah out of his pocket as he was leaving the field of play on Sunday teatime.
