As said previously - the club isn’t ready for the start of this season.
We have a list of players that have been brought in but they are still not yet up to speed - while others are out injured.
Other than the target striker position we have a much stronger squad this season- so as the season progresses we will get stronger.
But IMO this slow start could cost us dearly in the shape of having a successful season.
In saying that - we only became successful last season after Christmas when Morris and Dike were brought in.
So there’s time yet.
One thing I have been thinking about recently in relation to this slow start - is that by the end of the season all the new crop of players such as Leya, Obbi and Benson will have had more or less a full season in the Championship and will hit the ground running next season……. great !!!
……. BUT …. how many of the already established players will only have a year left on their contract by next summer ???
Because I can’t see a situation occurring at the club again like we saw with Mowatt - allowing his contract to wind down.
If players have only a year left next summer and they won’t sign another contract then they will be sold - and I agree with that.
In other words - there’s been an upheaval at the club at the start of this season much of it surrounding the players - and this unfortunately could be repeated again at the start of next season.
