On a side note, I noticed Jordan Turnbull hasn’t been starting for Northampton. If available, would anyone have him back here? Could cover both centre back and left back.

Taylor's lack of pace was there for all to see last Saturday, so it's disappointing but unsurprising this seems to have been a feature today.
Liked Turnbull at the time but wouldn't be overly optimistic if we had him back.

Nope. He is not what we need.
We need 2 ugly no nonsense CB's who are physically powerful. Can't remember the last one we had. Preston got close but not really. The old Taylor/Calderwood/Morrison (cardiff captain now i see)/Flint etc. I like the team playing football but i want my 2 CB's to be winning 95% of everything first. Don't feel that way about Lancs or Conroy to be honest.

He's already said he wants a ball winner not a ball player when talking about JSW. I agree with him TBH. And Turnbull isn't that type. |

At least Brown is talking about getting some "men" in (defensive)
Richards has returned to full training OK, may get some time Tuesday (or Saturday).

The frustration is that its not new that we need this in the squad. Seems its really fucking difficult to get those players in as we should have started that process in the summer when Preston etc jumped ship.

As an indicator, today does point towards this season's squad as being weaker than last. OK we've probably got a couple of loans to come in, but a couple of kids isn't what we need. Too early for the alarm bell, but not been a good week, kind of wasted the Maccy get out of jail card. |

I observed on another thread that there had not been a significant improvement in both the playing and managerial staff. Regretfully, there may be an ounce of truth in that.
