None of them really make me want to rush to buy one when they’re available

Midfielders don’t necessarily have to be centrally by the way. In my opinion we need 2 midfielders. Having Bird, Hourihane, Thommo, Smith and another Midfielder is good going. Having 2, especially with the way injuries have gone against us already this season is welcomed. Also the stick that Hourihane is getting is unjustified, one of the best players last Saturday and made some crunching tackles, he’s by far our most technically gifted player and is a threat from set pieces. He is slow but that’s why you get legs around him

Him being played demonstrates the deal was nowhere remotely close to happening. So not quite sure how it could have been pushed through, without giving him away for a fraction of his worth

I don’t get why you say we can’t sign a short term player? We could get one on loan, knowing Birds going to be out for awhile, whilst also having lots of games in the pizza cup. It’s quite feasible we get one in on a permanent signing as a DM in place of Smith, then one short term loan to cover BIrd in the advanced midfield role (whilst battling with Thompson) until Jan and assess then. 
 
If Birds sold we can try and make it a full season loan, if not they go back.

If we get a DCM with pace and a creative number 10 I'll be happy with 2 midfielders.

Warne said in his interview he okayed an overload system. I saw it as Fozzy being pushed up to draw the midfielders and defence across which left more space for NML with Rooney providing the cover behind. 
 
I felt the subs were psychological as much as Physical. All the defenders including Sonny and Elder finished In a winning team, keeping a clean sheet which will give them all a confidence boost they sorely needed

I’m sorry but you can’t sell your young assets, that are your better players just so you can sign a 30+ has been just to try and get out this league. If you’re selling them, then you need to bring in other young players with potential to sell on at a profit. 
 
Rodrigues, smith, Knibbs, Bernard etc
Otherwise you just run out of assets, and if you don’t get promoted you’re stuffed. Looks like we’re stuffed as things stand 

Tbf Warne said himself there was arguments in the room when going over transfers. I’m sure that’s natural in any club or business, where competing needs and budget comes into play.
I’d be worried more if everything was Rosie, as they wouldn’t be seeing what we’re seeing, on the pitch and in recruitment. 

I’m sure most of us could have come up with a better strategy and list of players than what’s come through the door. It’s not like any of them are unknowns from some far flung league. 
 
I hope next years recruitment  much better and younger with the opportunity to increase in value and come into their prime playing years. 
 
The cycle of no return on investment has been killing this club for years. Surely the senior leadership must know this? We all bloody lived through it!
