I'm just putting it out there and I don't think any of us can deny there seems to have been some financial constraints but none of us really know what they might be. Having said that, it's no excuse for signing a load of aging players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramshankered Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I voted no. To be clear, I've not been his biggest fans – I just also happen to think that long term consistency is what this club needs RN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest people read the posts that contain pure conjecture and contain no factual evidence to back them up. Hughes has been mentioned a few times for starters! I don't think you are one of the culprits, although I thought your topic was unnecessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that had happened most on here would be willing to give Rowett to continue to build on his team that could evolve and improve together, in reality we mainly signed players that are in their 30s, towards the end of their careers to look to get that instant promotion, players to help get us over the line. I agree, being 2nd in the league has clouded our season to build for the future. I would rather us finish mid table with cash on the hip to build an automatic promotion side for next season with these young players with pace and power, however I would be looking for some ability aswell ( weimann). MM has hinted of no more money, so how will we build if we don’t go up? ( might be a bit harsh on weimann, but he’s an example of more pacs than ability) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The supporters will only feel connected to the club if we start playing attractive entertaining football, I appreciate their are days when we may need to play deep ,keep possession ECT but their are at least 14 club's in this division we should be able to dominate over 90 mind whilst playing positive offensive football.

What if Gary also doesn't find this season acceptable. What if he manages to improve the teams performance next season so that if needs be can be as solid as we sometimes have been but also improve our quick passing and ball retention when attacking at speed? Are you saying this season is as good as it gets? if so why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WharfedaleRam Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 At the beginning of the season, I had no expectations of the play offs and the various transfers (apart from the long overdue return of the prodigal Huddz) left me a bit indifferent. Sure' weve had a few ups and probably too many downs but to go into the 46th game with more than a chance of reaching the play offs is a reasonably successful season. If we don't get there, or don't win the play offs, I'd dearly love some fresh young things to be blooded in the first team, whether they're our own development players or brought in from elsewhere. We cannot build successful team for the future with all these 30 somethings we've relied on this season. if our average age gets much higher, I'll be sat by the phone waiting to get a call up to play!!
