Why is it so many players cannot wait to get away.

Timmy could you please explain how our limited budget has anything to do with the dreadfully outdated tactics our management use. The engine room of a professional football team is the midfield and if they do not compete y ou usually fail to win.. In all honesty can you say that our midfield is efficient and competitive.
Midfielders are expected to create scoring opportunities, prevent opposition creating scoring opportunities and to weigh in with a few goals. I think they have been doing that. Not saying they couldn't be better. As for our outdated tactics as you put it, the managements job is to get our team playing to our strengths. We will see when the season starts how it is going.Of course, in some eyes there is absolutely nothing positive to say about the team, the manager, the board. I am not gonna get het up about that. Some people prefer to be negative. I ain't gonna change that.
