    if tordoff had of backed us in the late 80s, we may have been a div one club when the premier league came about. no point going over old ground.. again.

    It's been said countless times this season that we are too slow and have no pace, yet you think McArdle and Hanson are exactly the right type of players we need????

    Was thinking of a lot more recent times
    Like a small child making the same mistakes time and time again until they "see the light" and do things correctly
    But this time we have simply GOT to learn
    Or it's non league football for us
    When was the last time a transfer window improved our squad

    Didn't harm us when we eventually got out of L2 last time
    Or reached a major Cup Final

    That's because McArdle and Hanson were in their prime back then! I said this yesterday but it needs saying again - we have to stop harping back to the past! McArdle and Hanson are nowhere near the players they were for us back then, we need better if we want to bounce back.

    That's why I said they were exactly the TYPE of players needed
    You need a fair bit of skill to be promoted from L 2 but a physical centre half/forward
    are essential

    Ahh, so you don't want them back in person, just players that are like them?
    Can't argue with that (as long as they also have a bit of pace about them) ;)

    Maybe not those exact words mate but similar :
    We will be more aware and ready come the next transfer window.
    We have players identified.
    If we are there about's come the New Year we will back the manager.
    Hopkin has his targets identified, unfortunately they didn't materialise

    The list is of platitudes is endless Dave
    Only this time it's critical to avoid the continued slump or we may find ourselves in even bigger trouble
    Let's hope lessons have been learned or we really in dire trouble

    He could do a lot worse than picking a few up from Blackburn U23s. Won 12 of their last 16 games, beaten Arsenal and Spurs away, comfortably beat Man City last game. Their fans are demanding Mowbray bring them into the first team, which he has for a few who haven’t looked out of place.

    Colin Doyle set to return according to Facebook rumour probably rubbish because he was there last night and somebody reading something into one of his wife’s tweets.
    Did Doyle play under Bowyer or was it before his time

    I'd love us to re-sign Doyle. he's far better than bloody O'Donnell.

    And again another former player is linked. An average one at that. Only looks so good now as O'Donnell has been so bad.
