3-4 quality signings, extended existing contracts and a squad built to aim for the top 2 would obviously make everyone very happy, but that's all hypothetical.
THE FACTS:
We've lost our number one LB
We've brought in a player (Williams) who so far, from the many times I've seen him play, has only ever shown himself to be average.
We've brought in a forward (Bodin) with an atrocious injury record, who's hardly played for 2-3 seasons.
We already have a complete crock up front (Winnall)
We've also brought in a player (Mcguane) who looks like he'll be a great signing, but is currently unsure himself, weather he'll be fit to start the season.
We're on the verge of selling our potentially most valuable player (Atkinson) for well below what he's worth or will be worth in a years time, with only a 35 with a dodgy knee, and a kid with zero experience as back up to our one and only remaining fit senior CB.
We've also got an excellent RB who badly injured his hamstring 3 times last season, due to being run into the ground, because we didn't provide enough suitable cover in key positions.
We've got Jamie Hanson!
But do you think we should say no he’s not for sale and then sell if he puts in a transfer request?You’re not wrong - that was a lazy example to be honest! Does make me laugh though when people think we can just hold onto players for eternity and expect that to work out for everyone.
It feels like we are the ones pushing the sale not the player?
unless 1.6 m or 2m is an offer we cannot refuse.
