Yep CB and 2 strikersThat was only given as an example of how the situation is fluid and can change. I think most can see that we have much bigger concerns than RB

Yes 2021 possibly but at me of those senior and U23’s will move on and yes back to square 1 again. It does now looking like we will have the same start as last season.I think the implication of all these released comments from the club is that next season we WON’T be pushing for promotion. It will be a season of consolidation and development of the younger players. If you’re hoping for Championship football, guys, you’ll need to wait until 2021 at the earliest.
But this isn’t doing business early, and with the knock back by Sinclair and I wouldn’t bother with Cadden anymore it makes me wonder if there is something wrong with our club which we’re not privy to and that is the reason why we are struggling to get players over the line.if the season started tomorrow then yes we would be in for a struggle. but we’ve got 4 weeks yet so would make sense to wait and see what the squad looks like once our dealings are done. if we line up with 1 cb and just Mackie as our striker then people have every right to moan but let’s give them a chance to finish building the squad before having a meltdown again
This is the first I've heard about any issues at the club regarding the lack of a striker.Yep CB and 2 strikers
Not much point having them if that isn't the plan"organic growth"... Reads as if we are hoping (or waiting) for the u23 players to step up.
you question if there’s something wrong with our club when it comes to signing players but could it be something simple like cost of living in oxfordshire?But this isn’t doing business early, and with the knock back by Sinclair and I wouldn’t bother with Cadden anymore it makes me wonder if there is something wrong with our club which we’re not privy to and that is the reason why we are struggling to get players over the line.

Odd comment. How, with 4 weeks to go can you say that it looks like we will have the same start as last season? Are you suggesting what 5 points from 11 games?Yes 2021 possibly but at me of those senior and U23’s will move on and yes back to square 1 again.

Fair points. Just to be clear, yes I have aspirations for us as a club, who doesn't? And getting automatic promotion to the Championship isn't realistic, and I'm not sure the infrastructure is in place to get there or stay there.I think the implication of all these released comments from the club is that next season we WON’T be pushing for promotion.

So, we put Whyte into a central role - what happens if he gets injured, called up or sent off? We were lucky we had Henry last season on mega form.This is the first I've heard about any issues at the club regarding the lack of a striker.
Of course it is (all about opinion) but what often separates a lower league footballer is pace- and Sam Long doesn't have any. His positional sense is OK, but he's limited.I know football is about opinions but I think you're wrong on pretty much every point there.

That’s what a few can’t seem to graspAnd yet he played a significant part in tightening up our defence in our run of form in the 2nd half of the season.
So the living cost could and probably are a factor but with so called diet choices ie Cadden and Sinclair or signing it becomes a choice of 2nd or 3rd choices who I assume would not be offered the same as the 1st choices we’ve lost out on, then they will surely struggle even more with the cost of living in Oxfordshire.you question if there’s something wrong with our club when it comes to signing players but could it be something simple like cost of living in oxfordshire?
if a player could get similar wages but then have to pay a fairly high % of that just to rent somewhere here maybe that’s a factor in why some seem to turn us down
If he finds out the plan is to loan him out to an English club I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he told them where to stick it.
