Novice? Other than Grimes how many players we have signed have had a slow start? We're not talking about novices here either. I'd prefer to be cautious with a new player and let them grow into their position instead of them not hit the ground running and call them shite before they have a...

Thanks for that It's a bit of a long story. When the Brexit vote happened I just knew it would be an out vote. I had always planned to retire to France when I reached 60. People thought i wanted Brexit even though it was the last thing I wanted. So my wife and youngest 3 children came to France...

Correct. You don’t have much of a valid point. I'll leave you to argue with yourself and revisit in a few months.

Can't see us letting him go for that low a figure. If finances allowed we would be much better off keeping him for another season. We would easily get the 6m in another year. And by then we could be in the Prem and have one less player to replace.

Finally, you get the point. I was replying to those expecting KKH to be excellent from the start.

With how things have gone since I'm glad they left when they did. But 2 years before they left i wanted them out as desperately as anyone else. There's some bad owners out there just watching their clubs disintegrate. We could have got another one ourselves.

I didn't call it a Rudoni problem. I mentioned even a player like Rudoni who finished the season as a beast didn't hit the road running. Players rarely do. So i don't expect KKH to do it either. But as he settles in i can see him being excellent for us.

So this 'they lost less games than us' when it was only by 1 is neither here nor there.

Yes it is me. I'll say it again for those who missed it before. During Covid my wife got seriously ill. As she was having treatment my youngest daughter then ended up with a serious illness. Being in England i couldn't visit for 14 months because of border restrictions on both sides. At the...

That's not the point being put across though. KKH was supposed to have a harder job looking better than the poor players they had. Now he is with us it will be much harder for him to take all the awards.

So why were they only 1 point from relegation and we were in the playoffs. Must be something to do with they only won 10 games all season and we won 20 games. They lost 16 we lost 17.

This is getting silly. Find someone else to put this rubbish across to them. Because whichever way you put it you have this part totally the wrong way around. A good player will always look better than poor players in the same squad. It's like trying to say our worst players look better because...

The loan can go both ways. Being the owners they owe the money to themselves.

So standing out in a poor team is harder than standing out in a good team? I absolutely hope I'm wrong. But name the last player we signed that played well from the start of the season.

Many of us went to grounds that were dilapidated at best in our time of playing small towns. Now they want me to believe there's only 7 worse grounds in England 😂

Heck Jotas? Never heard of him. Have we heard of his brother before? I get what you say. But someone I've never heard of at all against one of the best players in English football? Add to this married just 2 weeks before and 3 young kids as well.

It's possible for anything to happen. We might even have plans to sell MVE but nothing happens.

I have a few questions i have for those that don't consider the full picture when signing someone. How did it go last time you changed jobs? Was it easy? Did it take time to take everything in? Were you the best at your job straight away? Did it take time to settle in?

They have been backed financially yes. But they will still be playing catchup with a bunch of strangers and players from League 1 where if they don't start strongly will be up against it. I honestly think they will be OK this season then become a side with a good chance in another year.

You're special. Really, really special.
