Good post Pedro….a little bit biased in IB’s favour though?!

I feel IB has done really well so far, like you said it didn’t take him long before getting the team to play attacking and exciting football after a difficult start before losing a host of important players at the end of the season and having to perform a bit of a rebuild.

He has brought in some more exciting young talent and continued to improve the current players and we are starting to witness what this team is all about. I’m of the feeling at the minute that this season may be a little too soon for us to mount a serious challenge, but who knows? Jacob mentioned in an earlier post about us lacking that killer instinct, and I think he is right. The ingredients are all there now, they just need to believe they can do it now….an away win against the league leaders on Saturday may well just propel that mentality to the required level.

My big question is what will happen when Rodrigues leaves? He could well be the first product of the football radar system, where we sell on for a profit. Will the owners use that money to seriously strengthen in buying a proven ‘Luke Rodgers’ type to play alongside Wootton, or will it be another prospect? The magpie circle posdcast speculated we could get about 200k for him. Whilst losing him would be a blow it would at least give us some serious clout in getting a replacement…or even two.

It’s important we keep in touch with the top two, so when it all clicks we don’t have a serious mountain to climb. Fingers crossed 🤞
