I'm all for giving new players the chance to impress and all that but, so close to the start of pre-season, I have to say that with what's left of last season's squad and what's been added, I don't quite get how we're planning to improve on last year. Are we going to sneak a couple of extra players on at kick-off and hope the ref doesn't notice?

"I'm bored, I have no life beyond The Fishy and going to Grimsby Town games, why aren't we signing players so I can have something to do? When are we signing new players? The players we have are crap we need to sign a whole new team so I have something to talk about".

I think that covers the translation of the above.

The fact Slades hasn't bothered to sign anyone is for me typical Fenty cheap option.

Wasting your time too many happy clappers who won't hear a word said against Slade.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Or maybe most people have the foresight to see that the season is over a month away, and signing the first bloke that comes available isn't the best option.

Neither as we have perpetually done for successive years starting the season with at least two key personnel short and saying we can make the points up later.Winners hit the ground running.

Lets see where we are at the end of the season and where Mansfield are,

Then we will know who was either right in waiting and getting the right men, ( hopefully )

OR

Signing the first 12 that came along so the boss could go away on a long holiday.

I can tell already it's going to be a excrement season, prepare for the worst. nothing positive from the club, no decent signings, I wouldn't bother renewing season tickets.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Promise a man someone else's fish and he votes Labour.

It is quite apparent Slade's primary targets have knocked him back.
