Mass Hysteria count down,
Going to do a mass hysteria countdown until August 6th.
At what date does not having the 7-10 suitable replacements required to stay in this division become
sensible fear and not Mass Hysteria?
61 days to go till Kick Off
................................Murphy/Dunn
Clarke/Christie..(inj till xmas)........ Cameron / Wood.?................ Hussey / NS
................................McPake (?) Willis
Bell/Baker ................ Deegan/ NS ...........................Sheff/NS

BSB i agree, if we lose 1 or 2 of our defenders we'll still be ok as we've got pretty good cover there, but midfield and more so up front we are always going to struggle.
Cody will get goals in lg 1 i'm sure, but theres a hell of a lot of pressure on him if nothing changes before the season starts, if he gets injured or has a poor run of games you just cant see where regular goals will come from. Macca will always chip in with a few throughout the season, again providing he can stay fit, but there's no-one else in the squad you would put any money on to say they would get at least 5 goals in a while season - pretty desperate really.

I can see why there is some panic as I said in my opening sentence but lets see what develops in the next month.
There are also not many 30 man squads in league 1 that do not involve at least a proportion of youth or loan signings to boost the coffers. I think people expecting a 25 man squad of seasoned pro's clealry have not done the math.
Of the players who we have released overall I do not think we can have too many complaints with decision, none of them really contriubuted to decent levels last season. Clingan wanted to go so good luck not too bothered about keeping a man with two relegations already on his cv! Eastwood - good riddance, Ireland fair enough. Platt debatable I liked him personally but think we can get someone in who is more hungry, younger and probably a lot cheaper.
There are a lot of unanswered questions at this time of the year but there is with most clubs all are restructuring with players out currently. I am hoping that we will all see where we are going more by the end of next month.
