It happened last season too , where our form also suffered in the mid season partly due to this ... we desperately need a bigger squad next year to avoid this year on year , if not , we just have to keep doing what we do

Which include Shipley a we looked to
Offload. So we have a championship squad of 20 and you think that’s acceptable

I assume Shipley was a late call & none of the other youth players traveled.

I'd guess you're right
Tbh none of the other U23s is currently banging the door down to get in the first team squad
Cian Taylor has the physical attributes needed to make it as a pro so I suspect he has travelled to get experience of being around the first team at a big game

We're not the first championship team to name two keepers on the bench this season. It happens.

Premier League clubs have done it too.

I'm sure Man City have done it. Do you think their squad is unacceptable?

What's the alternative, a 30 man squad? Ridiculous

Perhaps if Hyam gets injured he can have a go at centre half like you would in a pub team

Considering the club in January we’re with a legitimate shout at the play offs and now we have to put a couple of keepers on the bench to make the numbers up - dear me it’s pathetic

I doubt anyone else agrees with you on this. Man City! They have a squad that would field three teams. You do realise we released 7 players we actually signed for the first team in January either on loan or cancelled yes?

Only time you see Grendel positive is when O'Hare does a 3 yard pass and he's looking busy.

I think we need to be looking at our medical team as well.

How many in the first team other than walker?

You're boring. Literally all you want to do is moan unless it's about O'Hare, every other player. Everything.

Yes Man City.

So a squad that you say can field three teams had to resort to two keepers on the bench and that's fine, but when a small squad does it it's an unacceptable disgrace. OK.

Da Costa, hillsner, jobello etc sorry they were signed for the first team. Name a time you’ve seen a bench that light other than the championship and L1 relegation years

Da Costa played in tbe first game and I repeat - all were in the first team squad. Its absolutely embarrassing- Shipley wasn’t even by your definition in the squad at all either until January. It’s utterly embarrassing

Which - me likening you to Morrissey (fair)

or

a weak bench towards the end of the season, when we have a load of players injured? (shame, but acceptable)
Some might call it clever, so MR can use it to illustrate his case for extra funds next season !

You said 7 including one player who never featured until January and another (Kelly) who is clearly never going to again and another (Jones) whose not rated - still I’m sure you are correct even though my post initially seems more popular than - well players on the bench

I think most people on the lack of funding at the club support my take on it shine yours?

You?
