At the end of the day we don't know the detail, where the devil is, in our transfer attempts. I suspect chasing Simpson for too long was a mistake and a cut off date should have been considered so an alternative could have been brought in. As Ebanks-Blake, he may technically have been an upgrade but perhaps too costly to warrant. Who knows?
Right now we have the squad we have to go with. There are a few new faces I am delighted to have at our club and some of the others have something to prove. For me, right now, it's not the personnel but how it's played. I feel sure we have the ability to consolidate. Whether that transpires will be mostly down to who manages them and how. For me PB has three games. He has the best squad he could get (not necessarily the best he wanted) and it needs to perform.
I do not demand we go on a winning spree but the next three games at least need to show continued improvement and offer hope.
