What we need is a long term strategy supporting the manager to develop a long term squad. TS has made the same error time and time again seeing every close season as a need for a wholesale change.

Last minute recruitment is last minute recruitment. If the club wait until 31st August to bring in players for League 1, I'd agree with you.

The question I'd have for you, is what has been wrong with our recruitment after being relegated from the championship in recent seasons? We've always bounced back and been a top side in that league. Personally I think we've lost a lot of stability and next season could be tough.

Isn't the January window a notoriously difficult period to do transfer business? The few managers I've spoken to over the years say it is.
