So, we're now past the half-way mark and i was wondering what people felt about the season so far.
If i'm honest it's be disastrous, we've won once in 11 games, simply nto good enough for a supposed promotion chasing side. We're miles behind Scunthorpe, MK Dons and Leicester. We just don't have the quality and the lack of any player rumours this month is really beginning to worry me now. It reinds me of our predicament in the summer where we had 11 players ahead of our opening league encounter with Leyton Borient. I went on holiday and we came back to see 4 new faces. Furlong , Betsy , Grant and Sankofa if i can remember well.
Whilst we have brought in loanees we've not going to have a chance in getting any of them permantley . Do we really have a chance of getting a £1million rated winger? a £1million rated goalkeeper? a £200,000 rated left back? But the thing is we need these players. Surely there must be cheaper alternatives? Anyone think of any players that would come, i can't. But what i don't get is why we don't look at the released players and give them trials in the reserves.
I hope that we can pick up results up and finish in the top 10 but my mind just says that we can't do it and will finish around where we are now. I really hope we don't as i'd love to see us take on bigger teams but i just can't see us getting any better unless Tilson actually pulls his finger out, uses the money made from the Chelsea games and get's soem decent players in, mainly defenders.
