Snowflake Royal The point that people seem to be missing in my complaints about this, is that we know we have a very limited budget, and a lot of holes, so we can't really afford to plug those holes well, and get extra back up where we already have some.
Especially as we have yet to see any revenue raised or wages reduced from selling Puscas or finding anyone to take Millstone Moore.

That point only holds good if you know what we are spending on the players coming in.
If you know what wages the keepers are on, or how much Hoilett is getting then fair enough.
Otherwise you are suggesting Ince, Bowen, Bryan Stabler and Sue Hewett are imcompetant and don’tunderstand the agreement with the EFL, the business plan or how to build a squad of players.

No it doesn't. Every penny spent away from our main priorities when we have one of the smallest budgets in the division is a waste, especially when we have a player sat in the squad contributing nothing but taking up roughly a 10th of our entire budget

Snowflake Royal Superb come back.
You could have just said nothing, if you've got nothing useful to add.
I'll trust the people who run the club to make good decisions when they can demonstrate a track record of doing so, and not nothing or the reverse.

The Moore point is fairly irrelevant here, stuck with him and that’s it
The keeping spot is massively important to get right. Know you like Southwood but his errors cost so many points - take just the Derby and Hull ones and that’s us 4 points better off, and Derby wouldn’t have even got near us
Can’t afford to make mistakes like that this coming year, and if Bouzanis is a step up, and he will be cheap, then fine by me. Last thing we want to do is make emergency keeper signings because we don’t trust our number 1 again like last year

Doesn't have to be Southwood. There's also Andresson. Both are plenty capable of sitting on the bench. Both played at a higher level than our new back up keeper last season. And both were already a cost, not an additional one.
Moore is relevant in that he's eating up the budget of 3-4 players and isn’t likely to contribute, so we have to stretch the remainder of the budget further for the positions we need. He's not going anywhere, and neither is his wage.
Lots of players cost us points last season. Drinkwater, Holmes and Laurent easily as many as Southwood.

Snowflake RoyalNamelessSnowflake Royal We had more than 5 previously and it didn't work out particularly well.
Let’s avoid doing anything we’ve ever done before then.....
Probably best we avoid the things that didn't work and aren't very sensible, yeah.

I'm pretty sure we get the point, we've read it at least 75 times now

Snowflake RoyalURZZZZSnowflake Royal Seems daft to use up a loan on a back up RB when we used Abrefa there and he looked promising, plus we have Holmes.
Meanwhile, the promised LB where we have literally none is yet to materialise and we still haven't signed a single midfielder, despite losing our first 4 from recent seasons.
But we signed 2 keepers so we now have 4 with league experience!!
If this is true, we seem to continue to have a nonsensical approach to transfers and squad management.
Agreed that other places should be a priority (although I’m sure management are aware of that) but the aim should roughly be two players for each position and we have one RB. Hence so many players having to fill in at RB last season, Holmes, Yiadom, Tetek, Rinomhota, Ashcroft, Abrefa, Thomas etc etc
Personally think part the reason for Holmes’ run of poor performances last season was not being allowed to settle in one position so by that reckoning, would look to avoid playing him at RB at all costs
Is Abrefa not a RB then? Because surely our promising teenage RB > someone elses, for bench warming
