    Let's face it Fordy, if you were a Morecambe fan with the squad they had last season you wouldn't have expected to finish in the top half of the table. Until this squad proves otherwise give it a chance. If you really were a better judge of players ability than Derek Adams, especially with his track record,just you wouldn't be washing cars.

    He won't be gone in May.

    He'll be gone May 2023.

    Work that one out!

    Derek Adams's judgement?

    He's cheap? It must be that because Adams only said he was 'pleased' to get him, not 'delighted' like he has been with all the other signings.

    Morecambe were lucky. Covid times. No fans. I don't look at Morecambe and think WOW. I think credit to them but lucky.

    Bradford City are not Morecambe and the squad put together on a shoe string isn't good enough.

    Sparks said we were ready for the summer transfer market. Not for me. Made about 1 decent signing so far.

    You might be right but he would be a foolish man if a job came along and he turned it down because he has an income from Sunderland, houses in that area wont come cheap.

    He wanted two players for each position, which is 4 center halves, two right sided, two left. This gives us Kelleher, O'Connor, Canavan and Sikora.

    This whole recruitment looks cheap, amazing what a 33% rise in season tickets get you.

    Let’s have a bet Fordy. £20 for the burns unit. Bit of fun?

    Yes Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney may be movie stars but they'll soon learn what sort of money is required to bring success to a club like Wrexham, there was talk of Russell Crowe buying into Leeds United but nothing came of it.

    Why does it look cheap? We spent good money on Reeves and McCartan and where did that get us. Some have moaned about the Gillead signing even though Blackpool and Sunderland were interested in him.
    Adams signs players who he feels can do a job, and he usually gets it right. So have a little faith.

    Bet what?

    No, not until the season starts. Look, in my mind poor signings most of them and I think the club are ticking boxes but one or 2 more DECENT signings could change things.

    We need better quality still.

    Left back or wing back plus extra cover for centre back. Also as I pointed out WE don't know if any of the contracted players will move on over the next few weeks.

    Does faith reward you with promotion?

    Just mischief making Fordy but I'd love you to sit down with Derek Adams and discuss the merits of each of his signings. Especially when it gets to the bit where he asks you what football experience you have and what you do for a living. It would be priceless and a massive YouTube hit.
