If we could ship this load of senior players out...........then there maybe room to build the side Dagnall is a good start.........these need to follow Steele Hassell Ramage Kennedy Nyatanga Jennings Fox Pedersen ................these players are not good enough and they are holding the team back We cannot afford to carry these players if we are to survive in the Championship this season
A manager is only as good as his signings if/when he gets fired, he will have no cause for complaints as more than any other manager he's had the backing and been able to bring in his own players. He's signed too many duds, basically.
Re: A manager is only as good as his signings if only Robins had been allowed to increase his budget we wouldn't be in this mess now
Re: A manager is only as good as his signings Right idea some of the wrong players Dawson Dagnall fox o brien Kennedy. McNulty permanently Ramage. Kelvin if he doesn't book up Jennings on loan.
Re: A manager is only as good as his signings Where do you reckon they will finish, top, middle or bottom third of the division?
Re: Mid table I'm going for a top ten finish, an average Championship wage bill & their off the field turnover to be double of ours.
Re: Mid table Anyone with any knowledge will know Fox and Ramage are not ours to ship out, nor is Pedersen who for some reason YN thinks is poor. You mean our service is poor and he deserves better, surely?
Re: Mid table I suspect we could have returned a n injured Ramage to his owners. Fox is here until January but loans often end early if they aren't working out. Pedersen is a class act.
Steele/Hassell are great club servants who have played a big role in us staying up year on year. Ramage/Pederson/Fox aren't ours to ship out. Nyatanga/Ramage haven't been seen enough to warrant an opinion. Fox is better than Dawson/Tutu so if you want him gone add those two to your list. Kennedy I agree with.
Re: A manager is only as good as his signings They're nearly ten points ahead of us. Playing 3-5-2, converted Hammill to a RWB successfully, and picking youth team laikers. But yes. We were right to get shut because the 57 players recruited since he left have been great.
Glavin and Banks were also great club servants who have played a big role in us staying up year on year. Of course Ramage/Pederson/Fox are ours to ship out..........they play for us don't they.........so obviously their loan spells can be terminated because they aren't up to the mark. In fact the loan players will be easier to ship out than players that have signed permanent deals.
Can't moan about Nyatanga can we? Hasn't played yet. Thought he was a class act when he was with us before...?
Pedersen seems to be very well liked by most on here, but I remain unconvinced by him. I think he shows promise but am not sure he should be a guaranteed starter at this level. For me Scotland has been totally under used this season and his experience would have been useful...
Pederson shows promise, but still has much to learn. An example is against against Millwall, when he was put through on goal. Mellis was running on his left, completely unmarked, and would have been almost certain to score if Pederson had passed it. Instead he tried a shot from way out, which was no threat, the keeper held comfortably.
