    Our current squad is absolute dog shit.

    Should be mandatory for any current doom merchants to read back through these old threads to when it actually was depressing as fuck.

    play up

    I think it actually meant to say "pay up sky blues" and it's a massive ST price hike. Apparently it's going towards the funds to buy the stadium which DK will be going into partnership with our old chairman to buy. It's being billed as "a Kings Ranson".

    Summer transfer window 2024

    Exactly, punts on lower league players are fine as long as they are backups/understudies to proven top quality championship level players. There's a reason clubs aren't queuing up for the list of players above but Hamer/O'Hare/Sheaf all have suitors.

    In summary

    People's perception of our shit defence is twofold 1. People are comparing to last years excellent defence and holding that as "the norm" - anything less than that is seen as a failure and means the defence are shite. 2. Individual howlers. You can't ignore these. We have a habit of pissing...

    New number one needed

    The cost of not getting in the playoffs/autos is surely way more than cutting our losses with him. Continuing with him is suicide - he is not a goalkeeper.
