We were always only ever getting has beens and cast offs, we are not spending anything on transfer fees and with the number of OOC players we shouldn't have to. Top 6 is a stupid thing to say by DC, typical of him to try to use crap statement to placate the fans but it doesn't work. Survival is our one and only goal this season, we have the core of a squad to do that now but if we want to make sure we need 4/5 players.
Part of my Beef right there..
The unnecessary bullshitting.. The emphasis on being family at the club then treating fans like the bastard ginger step kid.
Technical director is a much needed role that should've been filled sooner. Tardiness is far too often an issue on our part which is costly in the football world.
It'd be nice to have a good preseason for a change, filled with positives for the forthcoming season.
Reality is our own manger is going home with his head in his hands... Already.
At least we can agree that survival is the goal and the tools to avoid relegation are potentially there.
My concern is our lack of activity. We've been here before and it always results in 11th hour panic signings which have rarely improved the squad.

More optimistic than I am I'd be grateful for a draw against Southampton
