    No, the bad choice is Warrington himself. Another ex player and cheap option.

The wages between Gray and Sherriff will have been similar as both young premier league prospects, so we have now saved the wages of Etete and Holmes?s, unlikely to be on small wages. He wants to bring in 3 more, so that means that TS has backed him with 1 extra wage!! Now all that is before we send players on loan and move players out which is stated as big wage players like Raggett and Kelly, so financially how is TS backing MH and how are we investing to try and get us out of the bottom four?
    The whole articles that Davis often writes make little sense, because he is trying to make something applicable out of an interview, when we all knows how it works, it?s never changed. The plain fact is we do the bargains at the end. Davis has to write something, MH has to say something. You have to sell your house before you buy another. Simple as.
    And hope you get another soon.

    What I will say is this is way into the window, it?s the same old routine, may be even tighter on money. When he says he is confident Stewart will back him, it doesn?t mean a lot. It just means we will get someone at the end, if only a loan.

    I would be more receptive if he said, he IS backing me, I KNOW by how much, so we know who we can bid for and by how much?at the START of a window. But they took ages letting even 2 go back, because we misguidedly thought we needed players like etete on the pitch against Huddersfield.
    However, since MH really knows it will be business at the end, he keeps him for at least a game or two, shielding saving other players.

    It?s all a bit transparent and boring.

    No, the bad choice is Dawson. Nothing wrong with Cann, been perfectly ok when played, did not make the simple errors Dawson regularly makes. Look at saturday game, prime example.

    The own goal was the ref?s fault not Dawson?s.

    You can debt it all season long but Dawson is poor, a good shot stopper, but poor all round. He will be a top earner as well.

    Another 1 of SE signings to go at the end of the season.

    Why do you think Dawson is a top earner?

    He might be one of the cheapest, that?s why he gets to be picked

    Dawson isn't poor. We've had a lot of very good keepers who make him look poor by comparison. By L1 standards he's pretty middling.

    Someone on here suggested there was a connection to TS (can't remember the rationale), so maybe that's why Cann has never had much of a chance.

    It's maybe through his wallet and he insists on playing someone he's reportedly paying 10-12K a week?

    Very likely along those lines... struggling to justify giving a chance to someone on little more than 'YTS' money when the other guy is on a L1 fortune.
