I agree, we would be a mid table league 1 team. We don't have anything now and will be worse off next year. Relegation would kill us, will not be a new start like people think I'm afraid.Clingan, Crannie, Wood, will be gone as well in January. Out best kids will be sold in the Summer, so at best we will be a mid table league 1 team
As long as we only sell Juke Box then i think we will be ok in league 1. The team will have been together for a year in Championship and gel better hopefuly. If we can somehow get better board not asking for millions but a little cash and we should be ok or playoffs don't you think?
We need to hold onto the kids. Anyone else I don't mind losing.
This team with a couple of signings would be odds on for promotion:
Dunn
Christie Keogh McPake/Cameron Hussey
Bell Bigi Thomas McSheffrey
Platt McDonald
S: Burge, Clarke,, Deegan, Baker, ROD
We'd Need maybe two or three decent squad players and another couple to come through the academy and I'd be happy.
Keogh will certainly be gone, possibly Hussey, Gael and Thomas too. But I think we'll still have Murphy; coming from Scunthorpe, he won't be on huge money, and he's spent plenty of time in L1. Not to mention that as a 'keeper with back-to-back relegations on his CV, would a Championship club want him anyway?
The upshot of that is that McPake and Cameron would be the first choice CB partnership with Baker and Deegan likely to play most games in midfield. If they can stay fit for 5 minutes.
No McPake will be on the physio's table alongside Deegan.....
Touch harsh on McPake don't you think?
No I don't think it harsh - it's not his fault he has been injured so much buy he does seem to be made of glass. In fact he has managed only 36 league appearances out of a possible 125 since he moved here so the assumption is that he will continue to struggle with injuries because he is obviously susceptible to them, just like other players like woodgate have been.
Stop talking about league 1.
Injured so much?
He's had two serious injuries and niggles whilst making a comeback from a broken back. I would hardly call that made of glass and susceptible to injury.
If the guy was constantly getting lots of different injuries then fair enough. However he isn't so give the guy a break as he is a quality player.
Yes two serious injuries and niggles - this is nothing personal against him but the fact remains he has only managed to play ~25% of the league games since his move nearly 3 years ago. That is a fact. Oh and why are you sticking up for McPake but not Deegan?
