Pressley's signings at the same time in 2014/15:

Danny Swanson
Jim O'Brien
Reda Johnson
Shaun Miller
Danny Pugh
Ryan Allsop
Mohammed Coulibaly

Andy Thorn's signings at the same time in 2012/13:

Stephen Elliott
John Fleck
Kevin Malaga
William Edjenguele
Kevin Kilbane
Callum Ball
Reece Brown

I'd rather our manager took his time getting the right players in rather than rushing people in through the door.

Just out of interest, how many players did we have in the squad already at the same time of year?

I agree we should sign the right players, but we need more of them, and fairly quickly.

City’s team news is now due.

We’ve been seeing a lot of kids involved in pre-season so far but surely Mowbray will try to play his strongest possible team.

Will know imminently.

Yes if he was playing for us, now you have done that you have ensured he is has a stormer!

We need a bruiser to smash him and tell him he is shit.

Erm, sorry to tell you this Nick, but Fleck and Vincelot aren't with us anymore. Martin's gone, and Reda's piss is the wrong colour.

Also, Gray's gone. So we don't really have anyone that can exercise that dominance on Maddison.

Martin was hardly a bruiser in fairness, Johnson never really had intent more clumsy.

Fleck didn't do much on that way.

Vincelot first half of last season was a beast, second half wasn't the same.

We need a Doyle type for players like that, just kick them and wind them up.

Should have let hunt play after their beef.

Lameries had the most grit getting stuck in sometimes, but he's his best mate so won't boot him

Sordell just needs to replicate his tackle from Saturday, that would slow him down...

Those aren't entirely exhaustive lists are they

We've lost around 10-12 players a season for the last 4-5 seasons

A tanking is what TM said and he isn't going to be wrong.

it'll be good to see what the kids are made of against good experienced opposition. even a tanking would help Mowbray learn more about what is needed and where.

From the telegraph
So Mowbray forced to play five young under-21 players at Carrow Road.

Darragh Leahy, Cian Harries, Dion Kelly-Evans, Kyle Spence and George Thomas all included for the match against the strong-looking Norwich side.

No Ruben Lamerias, Kwame Thomas, Chris Stokes, Sam Ricketts or Jodi Jones who are still recovering from injuries.

Charles-Cook (GK), Willis, Harries, Leahy, Gadzhev, Rose, Haynes, Di.Kelly-Evans, Sordell, Spence, Thomas

Subs: Scuza (GK), Dev. Kelly-Evans, Stevenson, Maycock, Shipley, Whitmore, Hickman, Thompson, Trialist
