Yes I don’t like the practice personally, management is too short term to be making decisions on players that are signing multi year contracts

I think the management team as a whole will sign a player or two that they know and trust. I expect a kid from Liverpool to be part of the summer plans, maybe even Salzburg.

Doubt Matos will be signing our players, he’s the Head Coach. Potentially may ask the club for a loan from Liverpool or something

Ishe, Casey and Ward can all do CB and fullback. I think Casey was a bit mismanaged, he should have got more game time.

It’s the case for most defensive pairings to play most, if not all minutes. It’s one of the least changed positions in any team after a goalkeeper. It’s just not realistic to expect starting quality players of 2 depth in every position, especially when we had such a bare squad this summer. We...

Burgess has been very good lately, but he’s the one of the pair that is prone to individual errors so it really stands out with him. Suited to the Sheehan game more than the Matos one so I expect we will have others on the radar for summer.

Probably £10 million I’d guess

If we had won yesterday, which arguably we should have given the balance of play, we would currently be 7th and 2 points outside the playoffs, winning 6 of our last 9 games. Having such wild swings of perspective on a single game is crazy.

Hard to legislate for that Vipotnik miss, the Franco missed pass to put him in, same with Nunes. Then the stonewaller on Franco not given. It’s just one of those games. Under Matos we are 8th home and away combined over 21 games. I think that’s a fair indication of where we are as a club right...

Only one of those was signed for a fee so I would say it depends on what finances are available to invest in those areas. We probably need a sale to get the required quality in. We also have to remember that the likes of Burgess were signed for the Sheehan system not the Matos possession and...

They are about the same as us in my view, they spent 40 million and didn't lose anyone of note from their promotion team last season so they have the squad cohesion we benefited from on the way up way back when. Since Matos took over 21 games ago, we are 8th and Wrexham are 7th, both teams...

I love to read the matchday thread after a loss, the overreactions are always stunning, not to mention the League Two enthusiasts who climb out of the shadows that can’t let go of our great club 😂 We had just won two games in a row and won 5 of our last 8 going into this game. Do we honestly...

Couldn’t agree more

A Any extra sponsorship is worth having, but you are right that people shouldn’t jump to wild theories because it’s extremely unlikely to be anything close to reality given the regulatory restrictions on ownership investment, that includes companies associated with any ownership, which means...

My guess is the extra sponsorship already funded Leo Walta, which is why it was a loan with a pay later type deal.

There would be, it’s not something that can happen as I understand it. Feels like fans setting themselves up for disappointment again.

But what was our record before that? I think it was GWFX, which I think was £2 million. So lets say we beat that by 500k and it’s now £2.5m shirt sponsorship instead of maybe 500k (guess). It’s not going to catapult us into the stratosphere. Fans appear to be taking this and running with it...

He’s not said anything about massive investment though, unless I’ve missed it. He just said there are now bigger commercial deals available to the club next year due to the connection to celebrity.

I personally think this summers “huge investment” is the same as last summers “wow signing”, it’s more fan talk than reality. Our sponsorships, being a small club in the back of beyond, up until now has been minimal. Now Snoop and co are on board then I have no doubt it will be higher than it’s...

Agree with this. We need an addition at CB and two wingers. The framework is there now which is something we haven’t had for a long time going into a summer. I also think we need a fullback or an 8 depending on where Matos thinks Galbraith will play most next season, Lissah is very young so...
