Rightly or wrongly that’s how they earn their living. We all have our own views on these things and it’s interesting to see how other peoples minds work - I’m going to reserve judgement until I’ve seen the lads play for us, maybe Wilder can bring out the best in them, I certainly hope so. Frankly I would pay a lot of respect to someone like Changing Times who has written professionally as a journalist as opposed to the vast majority of posters. His opinion is based at being at close quarters at the professional game. Perhaps you are not aware of this - certainly your comments tend to indicate this. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Robin Johnson 612 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 We’ve made plenty of poor/ diabolical signings. Lumley, Daniels, Akpom, Uche, all 4 loan signings - a shocking indictment of poor scouting and poor/ desperate signings largely on the need to get bodies in. With the number needed to get us up to a decent squad size it would be hard to rule out this not happening again. Link to post Share on other sites

No way with our recruitment model now would we look at someone like Ikpeazu 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, fair enough. Whether you were right or wrong doesn’t matter, I’d say that if everyone had the same opinion then nobody would find the little gems that seem to pop up from time-to-time. I’ll also repeat what I think is the most important part of my message, we’re all giving our opinions on this forum and it’s easy to type a message suggesting this player or that player is a must buy or playing this one or that one down. At the end of the day we have nothing to lose however I’d like to think that our recruitment team are held accountable at some point for their decisions. any way, I’m off to bed - driving to Milan tomorrow at 4 so hoping to see some more activity when I check in tomorrow night.
