Some interesting comments in here. Sounds like we’ve at least got a plan going forward which I think has been demonstrated by the business done particularly in the last year or so. Hope we keep him even if the worst happens and we don’t go up, and Cooper leaves

As the squad morphs into what you want it to be, it makes it easier because, I don't think we've got any players who are twiddling their thumbs and not contributing at the moment, whereas, when I first came in I think there were a number of players who were earning good salaries but weren't being considered for the first team because they either weren't good enough or didn't sit right with how we play," said Scott.

"We've tried to streamline that, and we've done a lot of work in recruiting players, but part of recruitment is to make sure we tie down our best young players to longer-term deals.

"That's something myself, Julian [Winter] and Steve have been really conscious of, that we want to go to our best young players, offer them better contracts and show we value them.

"We want to reward them for what they've done. We've restructured all of the contracts and how we build the contracts to make it more sustainable, but being more incentive driven and based on success."

Also says we have three positions identified in the summer as key signings. I’d say those would be up front, number 10 and centre half?
 
Goalkeeper is surely our top top top top top priority.

Still remember Brian Clough talking about Shilton. That single signing enabled everything that came afterwards.

Aye but he's getting on a bit now.
