    Anyone Getting Worried?

    I know there is a few weeks left yet to the start of the season but when you consider we have lost arguable three of our best players, Wisdom, Thorne and Bamford, the only players we have signed are youngsters with hopefully a future. We still need to be signing a few experienced players. If we start the season badly, god forbid and a few young heads go down. Whats happened to our Director of Football I thought he would have had a few players lined up, with Steves OK of course.

    If we get Thorne I'll be happy. Not to bothered about the other two. Bamford couldn't even get a guaranteed start!

    Still think we need another quality striker in the squad . Maybe another loan.

    I'll start to get worried if we haven't strengthened by 9th August and I will be worried if we haven't by the end of August.

    I think a lot of people are spending too long comparing this seasons team, to last years team. Theres so many variable factors involved, that it seems pointless. We could quite easily have a worse team this year, and still achieve promotion.

    No. Buying quality takes time.

    Dont understand your point. Firstly you say we lost arguably our 3 best players, yet we were already top 3 before Bamford and Thorne got into the side, plus Bamford was in and out. You say our younger players may wobble a bit, so why would these three make any difference considering their age.

    The squad is not really any different to last year and we did well enough. We do still need more experience at RB, but there is still just under a month to go?????
