    True Inspector, but half the ones mentioned I would not have wanted near our club anyway - lets just see who it is first. If Stuart brings in an unfit, injury prone and uncommitted striker then feel free to give him both barrels! ;)

    My god we have some right moaning sods on here.
    Everything the club do or say, people feel the need to disect and criticize.
    We have actually only lost once in 7 games with this ultra shit squad and that was to a team at the top of the league above us, i believe.
    Lets at least get passed the 10 league game before we all wring our hands , shake our heads and proclaim we are doomed.

    One of the first times I heard him say he can get information with regards players etc from his Ipad was during the 4 Captains or the last fans forum shown on the steamed video.
    As you say too honest for his own good at times gives fans a free hand to make comments as we've seen recently.

    Just seen this on twitter. Here we have a national league club who have hired three scouts to work under a director of football.

    Meanwhile League 2 Bradford City have zero scouts meaning the manager signs players to play in positions that they haven't done for 7 years.

    This doesn't make them a winning team on the cusp of promotion.

    It gives them a better chance compared to doing nothing and hoping something falls into your lap.

    All the gripers must think they can do a better job than stuart. So much negativy about. What about some positive comments. The season as only just started.

    I suppose this site is like the world in general. Glass half full/ empty scenario.
    Its not been an all guns blazing start, its not been a disaster.
    Once the squad building is finished,( lets see who the striker is.)
    I actually think we will do alright and see the playoff being reached easily as long as we stay clear of suspension and major injuries.

    You've been a bit quick to add 2 and 2 there. No details of areas covered, hours worked, wages etc etc. Looking at Stockport's position, I doubt they'll be able to recruit many of the Manchester clubs u'23s.

    I don't think it's the fault of McCall, he just answers the questions. I do wonder sometimes at the way his quotes are put into print though, his comments regarding Evans offer nothing to the fans other than comment of the like we see in this thread. Why go to print with something like that? Just adds an air of negativity that's not needed.

    People have been generally positive, why not ask the T and A why they print such shite.

    I remember Evans played as a striker. Now he doesn't, maybe he can.
    Haven't read the offending quote but did McCall say he didn't know Evans played midfield or full back?

    I'm not sure of you're point there.

    My point was clubs in a lower division than ourselves have a more professional recruitment setup. That's a fact, not jumping to conclusions.
