You need to target realistic players, all well and good that we went for this guy or that but if it's not realistic it just wastes time and effort.
I've rounded up the rainbow crowd
I think that’s what puts the emphasis on the sporting project being a good one. Good players will come here if we’re competitive and look like a club on the up. Coventry isn’t one of the premier destinations in the UK but plenty of decent players have joined them recently including our captain. Money will always factor in of course, but people will want to join you if you’re successful and doing well.
I suppose that’s my point. Our recruitment and ownership seem to want to be ambitious but we don’t match that ambition at the moment. We have to change the perception of us as mid-table fodder for us to be in the conversation for the players we’re targeting.
Totally agree in that success will attract some of those on the fence, but there’ll still be plenty who turn their noses up at us. Even Coventry will be more attractive than us to some, being a short hop from Birmingham.
Got to have someone coming in if that's case. I think a loan is sensible for his development
Maybe Cullen is seen as back up with Idah out?
By the sounds of Matos press conference he didn't really fancy Cullen as a ST so I hope that's not the case.
It’s definitely a factor. Loads of players who come here end up loving it and staying. but getting them here initially will always be always be a challenge.
Good move for him, I think he'll do quite well in league one getting games every week.
This was our downfall in the prem as well. Missed out on some very big players for this reason.
