    I won’t. He isn’t that good. He needs competition if he is staying.

    However, if he is good I expect offers to come in for him and for us to sell. The only player linked higher last season was Watt.

    We need better that Paudrie the red card waiting to happen.

    I've had a look and haven't been able to find an official team of the year so not sure what you're referring to but he was in the whoscored one which has been widely reported by all the clubs who had players in it. It's not the be all and end all but it shows there's clearly people out there seeing something you're missing

    No Bradford City player in it mate! NONE!!

    No Morecambe player either because most of them are crap also hence why we haven’t signed any as yet.

    Yes we did finish bottom half, but at one point we could have pushed on for the playoff's, something happened and the wheels fell off again. Players or management, we will never know but i am willing to give the one's that remain from last season , the chance to prove themselves.

    Over the last 20 I'd definitely say that the odds were in favour of any mentioned player being a complete disappointment.

    I think that's a tad unfair on David Hopkin. He started slowly, didn't look fit, then began to look like the player we thought we'd signed. Then, just as he was hitting his stride he got a bad injury and was never the same again.

    You mentioned other clubs....you said all clubs.

    And the reality is we have brought in shite after shite for the last decade.

    Parkinson had a decent core of players. We know who they all are. But how many have we brought in and sold on for a decent profit?

    I can only think of Wells and Wyke off the top of my head. Its safe to say our transfer activity will be one of the worst in the FL this last decade.

    I dont disagree. What was it, about 13 games out of a 46 game season?

    Can we all take a moment to reflect on Conor Wood?

    Best LB in League 2.
    Wont sign a new deal as better than us.
    Destined for top end L1 at least.

    You know the rest.

    If we bring in Ridhalge to replace Wood I don’t think it will improve us probably just keeps the status quo I don’t think he is any better

    Under Adams at Plymouth he played him at RB.

    Last season he was playing CM.

    Where you getting LB from? Why would he play there?

    Fair point. I am probably more optimistic with Adams at the helm certainly!

    Over the course of his contract Wood has done well. The system we played last year leaves full backs exposed and it’s difficult for full backs.
    I have read comments on Ridalgh that he is very good going forward and a good crosser of the ball but a bit weak defensively the same could be said of Wood.
