Gooch was shite for the majority of last seasonMorgan is better than Gooch imo and will go on to have a much better career
He isn't. You're wrongMorgan is weak as piss. Gooch is better
Very good first quarter of last season. Hopefully full season of that form
The same Honeyman that virtually everybody was clammering to be Captain after we were relegated from the Championship and he made that speech?
What a retort...Im sure Gooch is happy that you are hoping he recaptures his early form
I'm not knocking the lad's effort, but I will disagree about his leadership qualities.Not sure you could question effort or leadership even if you can question his quality.
To be honest, we looked pretty poor for a while before Maja left, but his ability to get a goal from nothing kept winning us games. Agree about October, mateAgreed. I'm quite happy, the new lads sound decent, but being honest I can't remember watching any of them (I'd heard of McNulty but couldn't have told you anything other than the fact he's a Scottish striker) so I'd struggle to be overly confident, I'd just say I'm optimistic. In theory bringing Leadbitter, Grigg, a tall decent prospect centre back and a quick winger who had worked with Ross before and done well enough to earn a move to Celtic sounded great, thought we'd kick on and go up, instead we looked pretty poor from the minute Maja left. Just need to see how they get on, not long to wait so no need to rush to judgment, I'll judge the window by about October!
No offence but this feels a bit cynical. Ultimately even when super clubs lump mega money on a player to address a need, the player sometimes turns out to be not what was needed or underperforms.I'd rather wait and see them play before claiming everything has been addressed
On the face of it we look like we have done the best we can with the resources available.No offence but this feels a bit cynical. Ultimately even when super clubs lump mega money on a player to address a need, the player sometimes turns out to be not what was needed or underperforms.
From the owner/managers side we have addressed areas of concern from last season. No guarantee the signings will work out obviously but as it stands our club have done well.
I have absolutely no idea what they are like or what their characters are like.
I'm not being cynical and I understand your point about targeting certain areas too. We've spent a lot of money on poor players who supposedly improve on areas we were lacking which have got us to where we are. Bardsley, Seb, Catts spring to mind. All were back in when their upgrade turned out to be poor.No offence but this feels a bit cynical.

He's the only one in the last 2 year I've heard ofWe've done it for a decade at least.....which makes you wonder why people are so keen to proclaim every single transfer window as good business. You'd think the signing of Grigg for £3m+, a L1 record, in January would highlight that. Essentially it's about balance, tactics and motivation....and we were noticeably lacking on at least two of those criteria last season so I'll wait to see whether Ross has changed his approach before declaring it a success.
