Today's article in the telegraph about who will replace Vernon, has some snippets from Rus which suggests that we have a smallish squad. Wilko also said that we would take more players in his interview last week.

I thought 27 players is a large squad, even with 4 youngsters that leaves 23 senior players,  so where are we too many, too few or just right, and how do we compare with other squad sizes for this level (I don't think there is a quick way to look that up)?

The GET have done an article on replacing a player that didn't even play in the last match?

Agree. Who wants a weekly Q&A with a local tabloid journalist??

MIDFIELD !! Although due to injuries/suspensions/ compassionate reasons we are seemingly light in there now ( however thats what the loan market could have been used for in an emergency ) we still started the season with too many...Clifton, Summerfield, Jones, Berrett, Rose, Osbourne, McAllister, Clements.........think i caught them all there...8 central midfielders....such a drain on wages and squad numbers.

Liam wood at the telegraph reckons it is unlikely we will sign another full back, if we don't that would leave us incredibly light in full backs, 3 full backs to cover 2 spaces seems very very risky, better hope that none of our full backs (Dixon especially) sustains a lengthy injury or a lengthy ban because it could be a long time to wait until the transfer window opens again.
