    Not to mention Ollie Shaw from 12 months ago .

    I've said it before and I'll say it again , selling our best players isn't the problem , we all know that's going to happen .

    However we never learn when it comes to replacing them .

    Happened under Hecky , happened under Stendel , it happened last summer and it will happen again too .

    The only difference is that at least previously we did spend decent money on players from the proceeds .

    Now we don't spend anything at all and yet somehow we are miraculously going to be successful .

    Indeed. We’ll always be a selling club because that’s our way, players can use us as a stepping stone and other clubs can blow us out of the water with wages.

    As you say though, our replacements haven’t been good enough in the main. I think Pines and Earl are a step in the right direction. We had a decent January last season too. It appears it’s the summer window where we need to step it up.
