Just as a whole, it’s only took a couple of injuries and we look v weak off the bench.
Thankfully, there’s been v few instances where we’ve looked out of ideas, yesterday we had 5 defenders on the bench.
Compare that to Ipswich who brought on McAteer, Akpom, Azon from the bench and have Szmodics to come back into their squad. There’s certainly more depth there.
If we get a a winger or two in, that brings up the depth of the squad up leaps and bounds.

I've long banged on about how thin our squad is and we always seem to leave ourselves extremely vulnerable in at least one position.
But if we weren't lining up a forward already, it's going to be difficult to get one lined up based on injuries that have only happened in the last couple of weeks.
I also think it's a bit harsh to compare our squad to a parachute team.
If we go up and come back down, I would expect t us yo have a lot more depth given the increased resource.
Given how may goals we've got already for the two of them to only average 15 each would be poor from here IMO. Both got 19 each (in all comps) a couple of seasons ago.
I have put Simms,but expect it to be Wright( if the lazy git gets his finger out)because we must get some penalties soon.
And before you all start screaming that Wright doesn’t have to run around because he keeps scoring, you hypocrites never seem to say the same about Simms.
Yet Simms is 10/1 (at W.Hill, same as above Haji odds)...weird, as Haji already has more goals.
But then you see that B.Fred has Simms @ 50/1...why the massive difference for Simms ie 10/1,12/1, 40/1, and 50/1 ??

This season is so exceptional, I've voted for someone else. Haven't a clue who it will be!
Tats, EMC and Eccles already have 9 goals between them, so could one of them surprise us with an individual goal-fest in the next 28 games? It may seem unlikely, but this is already a season like no other.
And who knows who may be joining us in the January window?
