This.

Hold onto our best players, bring in 3-4 more quality additions and things look much more promising.


Id be happy enough keeping Eisa, Leko and O’Hora and not getting any others in.


The thing is, Eisa and Leko particularly are known to be injury prone, which is probably why they're playing at this level with us now. Eisa throughout his career on average misses around 14 league games a season through injury, Leko similarly across his career has missed large parts of seasons with injury problems. Eisa already had a minor issue in pre-season.

Would be particularly unlucky to have both out, but I'd feel comfortable having one quality addition up front as cover. Dean and Dennis are just nowhere near their level where they can be relied upon for long periods.

Yes, some good cover would be ideal, but if it were a choice between getting others in and losing either of those two, I know what I’d choose.

Yes but in any well run club with the state of our squad currently that wouldnt be an option we would have to make.

Don't you understand the concept of irony? (Now if you'd said "Double Scotches".....)

It seems to be that being an above average/good side in L2 seems to make us all a lot happier.
