I think people got too carried away with our business, I know I did. Having such a hot start with Rodrigues gave a real feel good factor around the place which I think led us to over value the rest of the signings a little. In the cold light of day going into the season with the fullbacks and strikers we have currently is a huge mistake/underperformance from a recruitment perspective. Most fans could see the issues in those positions and we had 3 months to rectify them and all we managed was a striker in Harris who may come good but his best season for goals yielded 3 and a full back in Stevens who hasn't displaced Long. A lot of the criticism isn't based on 2 games either, it's the fact that it's a repeat of the same problems we've been seeing for years now.
This is unfortunately reminiscent of last year on here. In 10 days time we'll be almost 10% of the way through the league season, we can't keep writing that off every year and expecting to compete. The signings you mention should have been made before we got going to give u a chance of a hot start rather than trying to get them in a few games in, although saying that I thought we had enough in the building to beat Cambridge.
