The club in fact have done the work for us and it played out exactly how many of us predicted it would .

All three were found wanting in league one and had to be sent out on loan in the hope they would come back as better players , something 18 months on we still don't know given they are currently playing at a lower level than ourselves .

The club then underlined their failure to indeed replace Andersen and Kitching by having to recruit Pines , Earl and then Roberts so the facts are that the club themselves didn't think they were up to it either .

In future communication on this board it would be wise for you to refrain from attacking posters personally when you don't agree with them , stop swallowing the bullshyte sound bites that come out of fans forum meetings and actually acknowledge the facts that have played out as predicted by a number of us on this board .

Although that I suspect would challenge your huge ego and play havoc with the chip on your shoulder .

To be fair Animal, I remember YN saying that the aforementioned defenders were of championship standard back in September of last season.
