Do you really think Morfuni gives a shit about Swindon.
Suggest that he has far bigger fish to fry else where.

he has a fair bit of money tied up here (on paper). So he probably does.

He wont want to lose the money he has invested into the club, he will want it all back as a minimum you would imagine, and so will the 2 wives |

I don’t think that Morfuni has affinity to Swindon Town further than his money. As for opening up a fish and chip shop? Well who knows. |

That is from a Gunning quote, not a Morfuni one, rather importantly... “We know as a club that going forward that is what is required. It is a must and I think that Clem is willing to sign the players. |

Why now? Has it only just become apparent that having an experienced spine in the team is needed to get promotion? Only took 3 years for the penny to drop FFS when anyone with half a brain could have told them this years ago! |

The first year team had Conroy, Baudry, Hunt, Williams, Gladwin, Payne & Reed to be fair, it's more that the penny un-dropped after that! (of course that year, we had a decent spine but just almost no depth, so we still hadn't nailed squad building, but that year at least we had financial restrictions as an excuse and still did okay) |

Take any comments from the club with a pinch of salt “it’s just for laughs”

The evidence suggests that they might think having experience is helpful, but we can't afford it or find it with our staff and level of competence.
When your recruitment is limited to finding players who will be out of contract at the seasons end, and clubs that want to get rid of them sooner than that, well, you get kids. You get the ones who haven't made the grade and the clubs think are unlikely to. The ones with experience are kept around to at least provide back-up or support, the ones with prospects get the remainder of the season to prove it. What we get are the ones who haven't played in three years, or missed most of their development due to injury, or had a loan that didn't quite work out and then didn't show enough progress.
For over two years we have been recruiting with less and less evidence of a plan. Look at our forward line - barely any of them can play 60 minutes. Look at our midfield, five or six players who look the same. Look at our defenders, a bunch of wannabe ball players who never really picked-up the hard graft of defending. Look at Russells spreadsheet - a joke. Their plan appeared to be to hope a few players gradually move right on the age axis, but how can you do that when you give out 6, 12 & 18 month contracts to this type of "talent".

Any experienced player or manager has made it clear they can't work with outside influences, the ones we have had or signed have all gone very quickly. Until that changes it is pointless
