Well Hamer definitely is.

Kelly and Sheaf both looked like good league one players last year, able to compete with bottom end championship. Kelly does a basic job in this league, sheaf is technically far better then Kelly, better range of passing etc but makes far too many mistakes, haven't seen enough of Eccles.

So surely if they can compete with bottom end championship players that makes them championship players

Is that why we got relegated?

Well we had James who was by far the stand out midfielder, the 2 of the 3 who got relegated were god awful and the other couldn't be bothered to pay their players.

Well no, because the likes they did compete with also aren't good enough, even the Wednesday midfield completely out classed us.

Ah right so it's not that our players were good enough it's just that the other teams were so bad it made them look good

Or maybe you are just talking nonsense... hamer, Kelly and sheaf have proven to be championship quality and hopefully Eccles kicks on

Don't get me wrong I would have loved us to have signed James but his good form did also coincide with us changing to 2 in the middle rather than 3 which we had been playing

makes you wonder how we stayed up; what with our rubbish midfield, our injured/useless attack, average defence and our useless keepers. Luckily the referees liked us and never gave any penalties to the opposition (and even if they had, we'd have saved them all)

If you want another season of struggle then by all means they're all championship class.

What? Nobody mentioned about the defence, attackers or keepers.

Can't even say we need to improve a position without getting the bed wetters out in force.

You were literally replying to a conversation about how CM wasn’t a priority because we needed to strengthen other positions more.

I’m making a note of all the trendy terms so I can use them with my mates. There’s in the know, or ITK. And bed wetters (BW’s?). Any others?

Hamers a box to box (if he stays). I’m excited to see how Eccles develops this season, looked very good end of last, so maybe on reflection I wonder whether James was as much of a ‘must have’ as I thought. Not bitter, honest !

Not forgetting that the EFL randomly made us League 1 Champions last summer because they did not know what to do during lockdown.

Be nice if he broke through and scored 6 or 7 this season... Maybe unrealistic, but still would be nice to see.

Kelly is often injured. Hamer is always close to a red card.

you can’t only have 2 Champiobship quality players in your engine.

He played a part in 42 games, did he look like he was going to get a red in all of them?
