I emperors as frustrated as the next fan, but if I can see the players are working for the shirt I can forgive everything else.

Our recruitment has been great though, all of the below have been largely fantastic for us.

Slocombe
Brindley
DKE
Rawlinson
Lacey
Turner
Roberts
Wootton
Rodrigues (early days, but there’s clearly talent there)
Thomas

There are others that still have a lot to prove but to have a success rate on that many signings, although subjective, is impressive.
Yes it’s certainly over the top chap.

The context I would give this is that we are still a very big fish in a small pond. And also have parachute money almost all other clubs do not.

That should assist in our rate.

However you spin it. Excellent it is not.

It is I grant you better than it has been for a good many years. But that is with the above context in mind.
