It will be a worry if Sheaf keeps playing in Grimes' pocket rather than supporting attacks

With Grimes here he doesn't fit into the team, and I feel this need to shoehorn him in could be a big problem for us. He can't attack anyway, so it doesn't really work even if he did go further up the pitch.

Yes, of course we have some issues up front, maybe even in some other positions too. We also have to remember it is only preseason as well, but this issue is glaringly obvious.

Tbf does anyone know how much we can afford to spend as a club? I’ve not got the figures for the FFP stuff, do we have to sell before we can buy, or can Doug invest extra cash himself to buy players? I’m not sure what the financial/legal side of buying players actually entails tbh.

He is like it every year. Flashbacks to childhood and him constantly asking for more pocket money.

We can spend what the club generates. Therefore no he cant put in extra money because he fancies it. He already subsidises losses each year.

There's a limit to what can be invested. As above he's already subsidising losses so the Dom & McGraw approach is gamble everything and talk shite .
No thank you .

Or... Maybe he's taking time to settle and learn a new set of tactics. Maybe writing a player off before the season starts is somewhat naive.

Every fucking year it's the same and every year it pisses me off. Of course if you call people out for it after we start doing well you get the standard, yeah well it's alright with hindsight stop dragging up old posts.

It's the same every time. Give them some minutes in a new league in a new country and they're crap if they don't make an immediate impression. Mind you a couple of regulars on here think that Dk should throw money in regardless which is guaranteed to sort out the shortcomings.

Think that’s more down to giving all 3 game time. He looks promising tbf, may take little time to settle, expect JDS to start, and in fairness he’s been one of our best the last 3 months of season

Starting 11 for next week ? if we do get anybody in before, doubt they’ll be going straight in Worrying thing is the back 4 will be the same as last season, and that’s where we had to strengthen

It might say that he thinks he still needs time to adjust to the pace and physicality of defending in the championship.

Writing Brau off before the season has even started, come on

I would imagine Dasilva will start LB against Hull, which given how he ended the season (and has been decent in pre season) is no bad thing.

Brau will then start to challenge him as he gets used to the league etc.

Bidwell shouldn't really be in the conversation the way he's looked for the last 6 months.

How do you know whether there are are ongoing attempts to strengthen or not ? You don't. Always the first to throw out vitriol . There's a month of the window left .

You have more confidence than me, I know the window doesn't close for a while yet but I would have hoped that it would be sorted before now
