A good transfer window IMO.
Added eight players (five before season started & three since it started) to the squad that reached the Playoff Final last season. We should see an improvement whilst benefiting from a degree of continuity. Do think Reach was over priced but it appears that pretty much everyone is these days.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

Must admit I don't know much about Reach either. I didn't watch much of Boro last season but can't remember hearing his name much in a promotion team. 5mill is a lot for a lb or Lw but we did need him. Boro say us coming.
Interesting what are line up will be and strongest 11.

Reach wasn't in their promotion team. He was in the team that made the previous PO final. Spent quite a bit of time out on loan. He was with Vermijl at Preston last season... Good player, over priced. Nothing to get overly excited about. Signing improvements is the minimal expectancy in order to succeed.
His versatility down the left is most important to us.
How different is Jones to Buckley? 8 different clubs in 10 years for Jones. Is he a means to an end?
Add Nuhiu & Helan to that list Kev and we still have 6 players to shift on. They're not going to fetch a price, it is more important to just get rid. Let's just say they're each on 10k a week. It's 60k a week. 250k a month. Get the Stadium painted for crying out loud instead of covering the old lady's scars & odours with advert banners & perfume.

Helan & Nuhiu are still in the 18 man match day squad and make sub appearances.
Nuhiu would never make any squad of mine which I have stated before.
I would say the current squad is better than last years, but not by much.
