Devitt could potentially be the most important player to return this season.
An actual attacking midfielder who attacks.

a) We loan a player out, contributing half of his wages and then see him become Europe's most prolific striker by January
b) We recall him and he spends 4 games scoring a grand total of zero, barely getting a single decent chance
c) We then sell him, and some fans aren't arsed because 'he's a flop'.
Some fans will never, ever look at the way we run, manage and coach the football club as being fundamentally at the heart of why we're sh*t.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...Tony Wilkinson, Ginge Baldy, WilsdenBantam and 6 others like this. -

I am not expecting any incomings! We have been here before, messing about on the last day. I also think we have given up on promotion as we are not prepared to invest in January on filling the gaps. Our rivals are doing just that. I don’t care what the club say about priority no 1 it’s their actions that tell me a different story. They are not being honest with the fans. You do not get promotion by playing negative football, and that will get us precisely bugger all in the playoffs if by some miracle we cling onto a spot.
I have no idea what is going on at VP Towers, but what I see is a manager struggling to get players to play some kind of system ,key players wanting to exit and in fact the club has meekly just let them go. No attempt to resolve the problems, they are adults for ffs!!
I hope I am wrong on all fronts I really do I would more than happy for ppl to pull this post up having gained promotion. I would rather be wrong and ridiculed, than see my club and team in this incredible mess.Petrov, Idlebantam, Stafford Bantam and 5 others like this. -

We've lived hand to mouth for more years than I care to recall and that mindset is embedded in the club and particularly in JR. When he and ML owned it, there was no investment to take the club forward despite them both recognising that without investment, the club wouldn't progress. And now with JR in an influential position but without any personal financial commitment to the club, you'd think this was a good time to get these ideas on the table at no risk to JR himself. But no. It's just more of the same and it will take a major change in the club's mindset before the club can progress much further.
We might get promoted into Div 1 this season or maybe next but there are millions required to improve the club infrastructure and put in place a real, well funded, well resourced development programme which will sustain the club moving forward. We've had a couple of goes at it - eight years ago when Archie came on board and then of course the Rahic three year plan - but in both case, the club, for which read the then owners, wanted to do it all on the cheap. If it could be done cheaply, lots of other clubs would do it that way. Unfortunately, it can't be done on the cheap and it will be those clubs with a bit of vision and an ambitious owner with access to additional investment who will be much better placed to progess than ourselves. I wish it were different but I don't see any signs of a change in our approach.
