Gamboa, Davidson etc are still quite young and could turn into good players.
To get rid of all the newbie’s plus some squad players, it’s going to cost us a fortune to replace them all! If you think on average an average player these days will cost you 5 mil, and assuming we will need 1 LB, 1 RB, 1 LW, 1 RW and 2ST’s, we will need 30mil and that’s just to stay the same not really improve the squad!
Crazy!
This is ALL of our own making as well...... Appointing 'wrong' people at various levels at the club and not doing proper homework on potential signings.
Somehow we have managed to go from a well run club with a blueprint others followed, to a complete mess in less than 2 years.
Suspect its a three word answer to how we achieved this....no Dan Ashworth. Many of us thought he was a huge loss; now appears bigger than huge. Should have kidnapped him when he visited the academy recently.
