gm_gm, not harsh at all. I feel the way the club/Warne have gone about recruitment for midfield has been very poor indeed. This lad might turn out to be a gem of a signing but, we are still one light in midfield and for me that's bad/poor planning and not just all about the lack of funds. I suppose you could apportion a lot of blame in the direction of the recruitment/scout fella.

The over run of the Wembley final may have clouded recruitment but it still left 6 weeks to get things going. let's hope whoever else we bring in is not sub standard/ scraping the bottom of the barrel type of player and we quickly cement a more solid side going forward. What I've seen of Vaulkes/Palmer so far does not install me with a lot of faith.
The Ipswich game highlighted clearly how poor these two were in the middle.
