Archied Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 6 hours ago, Caerphilly Ram said: Without knowing what our budget is I wouldn’t object to the bulk of it being spent on one or two “key” positions if they’re likely to be the difference makers, provided we can convince some free agents to join. As an example, say we sold Bielik and had £1-2m to reinvest. Using the wages we’ve saved on him, Davies, Stearman, Chester to cover a number of free agent signings to bolster the wing backs and one centre back. Then spending that £1-2m on a goal scorer from this league or elsewhere (the Irish lad?) and a leader at the back in that ideal age bracket, would in theory leave us much stronger overall. Trouble is you can easily end up with one or two injuries making your total spend obsolete, look at Bielik jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have a 30 + year old striker in Collins who doesn't score many goals, why would we add another in Washington? I don't believe it personally. Sounds like people are adding the Rotherham link and making it up. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blondest Goat Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 (edited) 7 hours ago, S8TY said: Yes totally agree and could be the difference …I know there are some good players out there who are available on a free so to speak but if we spent most of actual transfer fee budget on a commanding CB at the right age and a couple of strikers I actually think it will be good enough …we lacked goals last season and we created lots of opportunities last season …if we take more of those chances we will be top two next season We lacked goals and created a lot of opportunities but you want us to steer clear of the leagues top scorer? Not sure I follow this logic. Edited May 31, 2023 by Blondest Goat jono and SKRam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard Denzil Washington was invited along to a Training Day. He was Unstoppable at times, a Man on Fire. He also got an Equaliser or 2 in a practice match.
