    That’s a fair argument to make. I suppose it comes down to how much better do you think we were than everyone else last year (I’d argue good but not miles ahead as our record of close wins and being built on a solid defence would show, we didn’t annihilate teams last year), and how big the jump...

    Its nothing to do with faith in the management team or writing people off after four games. It’s about The fact the first team hasn’t changed from last year aside from one signing to replace our POTS. And whether “the model” works when you’ve made such a jump in quality. Jesus, I’m on record as...

    Funnily enough public health isnt handled by the traffic enforcement department. So yes. Local health teams have a much better record than private TNT teams.

    Worked two and a half days a week doing supply. Dropped my living costs as much as possible, though did initially live off the wife. Marriage broke down the first time halfway through my course so moved in with parents. Saying it now obviously not as easy as I make it sound :D

    Yeah I respect that. Getting O’Hare was great, he’s not looked out of place at all. But he was here last year so just taking last years squad to this you can’t really claim he’s an improvement. I do hope we’ll find our feet. We always start slow and that’ll go double this season. But if we do...

    I mean take everything with a truck of salt cos I’m prone to over negative reactions, but my worry is “the model” doesn’t allow for the jump in quality between L1 and the Championship. I agree Sheaf and Walker could come good, but we need has come good at least in some measure. If you look at...

    How did you do that? I had to create accounts forboth my daughters to buy theirs because I couldn’t have multiple people on. Are you sure your dad doesn’t have an e-ticketing account?

    That’s mental. I went in as a mature student with no issues (didn’t do A levels so don’t have Maths A Level which was required) Sorry to hear it. What about a higher level apprenticeship?

    Counting O’Hare Giles and McCallum as new signings is a bit dodgy IMO. Østigård looks like he’ll drop out for Rose, which leaves Sheaf. Who so far has looked like Ben Stevenson’s slightly less fluent brother. Two DMs also means we have to lose arguably our most influential player in Kelly. I...

    Other than Hamer, who do you expect to break into the team?

    Which is exactly why we should be going for quality over quantity. If the budget is limited it makes even less sense to be stuffing the squad with reserves The entire point is Hilßner and Walker have barely played and Sheaf looks “alright”. Hamer went straight into the team because he’s clearly...

    This is a bit weird. Fine call it 9 players, I really don’t see how it changes the point being made. We’ve spent our budget and it’s not made a difference to the team. I’d rather we bought in two Hamers than Hamer Walker Sheaf and Hilßner if the latter three are going to sit on the bench...

    Debatable. O’Hare Hamer Walker Hilßner McCallum Giles Sheaf Østigård Dacosta McGrath That other kid My bad it’s eleven. You can say O’Hare etc don’t count because they were here last season but that’s rubbish as they weren’t under obligation to sign and we chose to spend out budget on them...

    Id have another word TBH. Very rare that they demand GCSEs for mature students in my experience. Especially if you can prove competence with experience.

    I’d have thought you could go straight in at L4/5 rather than doing A levels. Do you know what you want to do?
