Lumps, get your reading glasses on, I said 3/4 seasons were good since 96, that would include the season you rant at me for "airbrushing".

Ok, perhaps we did over achieve last season but what should have happened in summer is that those players that we lost they should have been replaced with simular types of players so we could kick on this season, instead we have gone backwards and are struggling, the bollox about not being able to get the right type of player to me is just bollox, how do other teams cope surely you get the best that is available to you for the money you have, he cliaimed to have a list of 5 ? players on his wish list for each position so where are they then, if you can't get No 1 then surely you go down the list, is it that nobody wants to come here then ?
We miss Greer's leadership and experience and have now got that type of player although he keeps getting injured, we miss Paynter for his hard work, hold up play and goals up front and we missed Ward for the creativity he provided, the 3 types of key signings we should have made in close season and we didn't.

Also not long ago they said they sit down together and write down the name of players we have faced who have caused us problems. Based on this year the list should be a lot longer than fucking 5

Towards the end of last season people were bemoaning the "tried and tested formula" though. So many people on here were whinging that all we had was 4-4-2 and that teams had found us out so played 5 in the middle to dominate play.
There's more to it than mere formation. Ferry and Douglas were brilliant in midfield last season but for some reason they aren't being played together this time round. Cuthbert + experienced centre back who could organise the defence and bully the forwards hasn't been in place. McNamee was sold because he was a luxury player but Ritchie is equally lightweight (fwiw I think Ritchie is a much better player). McGovern hasn't until recently been played on the right wing. Fans will moan but it doesn't mean they're right. But we can all see what's happened this season hasn't worked most of the time and that is absolute fact.

I haven't see figures, but I'd imagine we've one of the higher wage bills in the division. Would be interesting to see some stats on that, if someone's got the time to trawl through all the accounts of the clubs.
Wouldn't help as they're all relating to last season. Those that have filed on time that is

I didn't publicly set the targets for this season last summer!!
That was Fitton and Wilson - who both banged on about progression, the play offs and doing 'a millwall' we are 20th!
That isn't progression, the play offs or doing 'a millwall' its being shit.
I dont understand why you want to ram this back in the face of the people at the top of the club? Its very very sad behaviour. The objective always has to be promotion from this league.

Defence, midfield, forwards? Absolutely no idea...
