Gut feeling is Warne is not the true name we are after. 
Clowes does things quietly and behinds the scenes. Wouldn't be surprised if a bigger name like Dyche has been lined up and just kept on the quiet

Not sure I buy into this whole Oduroh is not ready talk. Having seen his development over the last few appearances I'm increasingly confident he is ready. 
We're in a league where on paper our squad is exceptional compared to most teams and you would think this team could hold its own in the championship. Because of that the pros of training up and giving experience to him outweigh the cons of a slightly weaker position. 
This is the first time for a long time we've had a true out and out winger on the right with NML. That's always going to make it tricky for the full back to support in attack. The link up between Dobbin (more of a wide forward) and Oduroh seems to play to his strengths.

Don't see any need to sign him? Bird, Smith, Knight, Sibley, Hourihane, Rooney plus the academy. Seems if anything we've got too many starters for too few positions. 

Can you (or anyone for that matter) provide an actual example where Stearman had an awful game? He's consistent and has always stepped in where needed.

Top 6 to be realistic. There are some strong teams and some teams with momentum. We're not used to this league so I'd expect the first 6 months to be about adapting. 

Think we're probably 5 signings away from being a promotion team:
LB-most likely Fozzy with Roberts rotation/cover 
RB - wouldn't mind getting someone like Christie or Brayford back, both experienced and would allow for rotation with the new signing. 
CM- assuming Bielik doesn't play for us this year then we 100% need another midfielder. Probably could do with an enforcer with a bit of experience. Stephens/Mcdonald or even Johnson could probably do well. 
GK: not a clue, probably a keeper who knows the lower leagues and would be happy to be a cup keeper and to challenge. 
Another winger/wide attacker: most likely a loan from a prem side, not going to expect to start every game but will give options. That plus Glover would top up the squad and give the u23s some depth.

Collins. Would have been happy with him last year, still a fair age, proven at every level and knows the rough and tough of the league. 

Just signing the entire Republic of Ireland team at this point really aren't we?

Thing is we're not just having a squad to stay up next year, they're looking to challenge for promotion. 
One injury to Cashin and Davies and we'd be done for, especially as there's no real youth CBs otherwise available. 
It's going to be a busy season with the various cups plus the league will be far more physical. Having two players to every position is an absolute must IMO.

Mendez-Laing and McGoldrick are both previous targets, as is Chester. 
Barz we've been linked with since before even the season end. 
Only leaves the GK which we didn't need until last week came around. Rooney and Rosenior likely made their targets long before Rooney left so its likely a follow through of any original plan.

Business plan is in place for two years following the exit of admin, which includes caps on wages. At the end of the two years I would imagine that the cap ends so players won't want to sign for longer when they can get a pay rise at the end of two years.
