    Before I get criticised for having a go…. One thing did strike me
    Neerav added ‘Something we found in the data was we weren’t actually creating chances for the strikers that we had. We brought in players that could add that offensive threat from midfield, and you see it now in Devante Cole, so this was an area we addressed, and it wasn’t just about signing strikers’

    Absolutely 100%. Totally agree. We created little chances all season. Benson, Kane ( who should have been kept here last season) Williams were all missing for long swathes of the season. Brittain was missing for all of it. You can see the difference in chances created, even after so few games.

    Another factor is that we were competing against Championship midfields last season. It could be argued the Third Division offers more scope to create chances.

    I hope it is just coincidence but the need to put in funds in January mentions money rather than equity (shares). January coincides with the transfer window.

    We are limping from month to month. Promotion is almost becoming essential financially.

    “January” money input was exactly my point…where’s it coming from…
    My guess is Player sales
