But this isn’t reality mate.
NSNO goes without saying, but expecting and demanding that and comparing that with reality are two entirely different things.
We got our big takeover, absolutely missed our shot due to horrendous recruitment/top level decisions, yet somehow managed to build a world class state of the art new stadium. As a result finances are ridiculously tight, I don’t think we even know the half of what we’re doing to get by. Just look at our squad and tell me if you’d sign 5 of them given the chance??
It’s an asset stripped group of players with a below-average manager, exactly where I would anticipate us to be due to the horrendous management from top to bottom for the last 7/8 years.
Hopefully TFG takeover is the reset we all desperately want it to be, including new squad and manager. I’d be careful in moving too quickly on the latter mid season with this group of dirge.
Its the great conundrum -
Theory: NSNO.
Reality: "Want to sign our best players? While we're there any players on loan or we dont have to pay you for upfront?".
Result = 16th on Bookies algorithm.
