Time will tell. I personally like the club trying to find gems from abroad. I never said they’d be considered “fantastic” I said there would be intrigue - as there was when Hamer signed. at the moment we’ve signed a left back from Bristol City. I somehow doubt if we’d announced two youngsters...

Which would suggest our budget is severely limited, and we’d need to replace 10 players. Say Gyokeres gets an ACL injury whilst in Sweden and we can’t sell what happens then?

I’d disagree somewhat, unlike Chelsea both PSV and Benfica have a linked pathway between their first team and youth academies. time will tell if they’re any good, but I’d be quietly excited at these types of signings

Disagree - Jobe Bellingham would have been greeted well, and the PSV and Benfica signings would be greeted with the same sort of excitement Hamer bought

Not happened yet though, added to the fact they signed Jobe Bellingham who looks a decent player.

I like the way they’re going about things - the idea is to pick up these youngsters from top youth academies. The idea is that they would have technical ability you add this to players such as Jack Clarke, Pritchard and Ross Stewart and they will be seriously good baring in mind they made the...

Nah - still fancy us to finish above them. I’m looking at us being around Watford, Blackburn and West Brom. Then of course you’ve got Millwall and Preston who are always mid table. I’ve got us finishing 13-16th this season

Winning will always be remembered over great performances. Strauss’s team always brought in the crowds - his sides were definition of grinding opponents down i’ve no issues with the batting - I’m over that. Stokes makes rash decisions, the declaration served no purpose. It was sunny, we should...

That will be another team that finishes above us next season when Stewart comes back. I’d make it Leicester, Leeds, Southampton, Norwich, Sunderland, Middlesbrough already - that’ll be 1 of Doug’s 5 season plan gone

I think it was Vik. The point I was making that he was brilliant against Vik and kept him quiet for 150mins? Think he got booked around 60 mins in of course Vik became free he started to get more involved and eventually set up Gus but for 150 out of 180, Vik was largely quiet. That was down to...

McNair was excellent against Vik until he got booked

See that would be the case if we weren’t looking like we need the money from the proceeds to build the squad if Doug decided to fund the rebuild we’d be fine

Bit harsh - what makes you think Gyokeres wouldn’t have been given the platform elsewhere? Failed at Swansea but that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t have gone elsewhere. I never get these loyalty comments - clubs regularly throw footballers on the scrap heap when they’re not good enough, it’s not all...

Pretty much fucked the day the transfer window closes

That’s not the same analogy - it’s more like in 1 years time the bank is taking your house, for £0 you don’t sell your house for peanuts at the start but the value is reducing every day because you’re not gonna get anything in a years time. you’ve also got to look at selling, because you need...

Forget September the 1st - with that august we need a squad in August 5th

Sacking Robins after 5 games

This - I’m fed up of Robins having to scramble around on scraps, I want him to be given the tools to progress us.

Comment he made recently. I’ll try and find it. Of course I may have misunderstood that - but I’m not convinced by Doug one bit - I’m hoping he’s tidying up the club for another sale
