    Whats your obsession with bashing McCall all the time? We know he is limited as a manager but I don’t solely blame him for the poor window so far. You’ve already made some basket case point that players won’t come here because he’s not “a Modern manager” or one who’s managed at the highest level. You don’t need to keep chiming in about it every two minutes.

    Yeah I sort of agree, I like how Biamou can score a goal out of anything and isn't afraid to try the overhead kick or the 30 yard shot.

    I'm gonna struggle to agree that the squad was weak. It was stronger than the squad Parkinson had the year before....Wyke or Hanson for a start?

    Was it? Any link to that?

    If so what was the budget the year before and if it decreased how come? We definitely spent a fortune in fees.....officially the most since the Premiership years?

    I'm not sure how you document over achievement, its just opinions. I can't see how a play off team from the year before weren't expected to be a play off team again though?

    That's not how it works. If you make a claim then it's up to you to prove it, not for other to disprove it. That's fine though.

    Mid table isnt 10th but I'm not that bothered about going round in circles to be honest. Just wanted to know if I'd missed something but I clearly hadn't

    and I quote "We know he is limited as a manager". So why do we want him here?

    If we were to say that about a player but keep signing him the people on this forum would be up in arms.

    We've made a signing! NutrtionX is our official new nutrition partner! If that doesn't shift a few thousand extra season tickets I don't know what will.

    Have you realised what league we are in? What manager at this level doesn’t have limits?

    Our most successful manager of recent times has failed at just as many if not more clubs than he's been successful at.

    Out of interest Feats, what are your hopes for the coming season? Do you want City to be successful? Or are you hoping for a season of mediocrity/failure so that you can be 'right' about McCall?
