I'm prepared to wait and see how good these freebies are. But going on our history of signing freebies in the Championship then it's easy to see why people are quick to judge. Anyway not bought a season ticket this year as I'm not interested in feeding my cash to SISU's hedge fund trustees, so will wait and see.
Forwards are still a concern. At this level McDonald averages one goal in 8 games - worse than Elliot - O'Donovan needs to go to free up whatever wage he is on.
Could I ask you qualify your stats there dear chap? One in eight?
At Norwich, he had 4 in 25, but less than 10 starts. Is this the figure you're using? Statistically it's closer to 1 in 7 than 1 in 8 ;but let not mathematical integrity stand between Grenduffy and a tasty stat to band about eh? And given his starts, a bit of a disingenuous use of statistics.
At Gillingham, where he did get a run in the team - and I do acknowledge it's League 2 - he bagged 25 in 41. Which by anyone's standardsis prolific.
The unqualified use of 1 in 8 is a little cheeky if youdon't mind. Even for a Friday....
This is getting rediculous now. When is the actual squad strengthening going to start?

It probably is and yes its straight from Wiki but my main concern is that there seems to be almost an assumption he will score plenty of goals next season. For me he remains unproven. He had one good season at Gillingham - plenty have one good season somewhere and never repeat it. At 26 he should be established and the fact that he isn't is a possible concern.
I'm a changed man beduff!
McDonald looked very, very sharp towards the end of the season. One moment I particularly remember was at home to Millwall when the ball was played of the top to him, but it looked to have been played too long, somehow Cody managed to get to it full stretch and volley it top corner. Unfortunately Taylor made an incredible save but it was a great piece of skill from Cody.

Very true Grendel, but I think the money paid out, is going to be nowhere near the money coming in from the sales of Bigi, and Keogh
Depending in which context that you talk about Torchomatic....Yes! I'm happy that players are being BROUGHT in(SISU really surprised me there) Though still nowhere near enough, and No! the quality going out is far greater than that coming in. Two French players who no one has heard of, both of which have languished in their respective reserve teams for 3 years. One Rangers reject who played for Blackpool a handful of times, and received far from glowing reports from the "Tangerines" fans in their forums. In short, I can put my hands up and say SISU are finally doing something about the playing staff, though in my opinion...not nearly enough.
The players have been brought in, there will be sign-on fees and wages to take into consideration, so the club HAS invested in new players. Weren't you one of the ones along with a few "high profile" forum members who were saying we wouldn't sign anyone. Are you not happy with the players we've acquired then?
@ Torchomatic....
Such a pity that SISU didn't do that(Give them a chance) with regards Westwood(When asking for a extention to his contract was treated like shit on the bottom of Boothroyds' shoe) Dann, and Fox(These two chaps look like they can play a bit let's sell them for as much as we can)....In short the common denominator with these players(Including Keogh and Gunnarsson) is........................................We actually PAID for these guys.......They weren't picked up from the bottom of the bargain bucket for nothing. These players were bought because we WANTED them.
Over to you....I'm sure you'll find something to have a go about!:slap:
