    Extremely worrying if true! Not due to their ability, because I don't for one minute think they can be any worse than the options we currently have, especially on the bench.

    It would say more about the manager than anything else.

    We've been successful with our 343 formation. But that has to change with our front line. I'd play Benson behind Cauley and Freeze.
    Also, sounds harsh, but. Clark Odour has played his last game for the club. Can't defend, which leaves him 4th choice LWB. Not a striker, clear to see. What's the point in him being in the match day squad. Probably get ridiculed for that. But that's my opinion.

    Head Coach seems to be saying not selected as not showing enough in training rather than fitness.

    I can't believe that at least one of them doesn't look better then Victor, especially given their pedigree. Not that I'm slagging Victor off, but it would seem a bit pointless to sign 2 strikers who are worse then what we've got AND sell Chaplin, unless it was a money saving exercise, which it clearly can't have been.

    Got to be a load of tripe. If it's true it's discombobulating.

    I’ve heard that Schopp makes them stand on one leg while going nanananana and having water bombs thrown at them, the first 8 to cry either doesn’t get picked or are benched, I know it’s true cos someone told me, worrying times

    The Conway part is true. They're not signings suggested from the recruitment team, but from agent recommendations. As stated last night, atleast one cannot play due to 'visa' issues. This is absolute fact.

    The worrying thing about these Belgian lads is that neither of them has many appearances under their belt wherever they've been.That points at one or a combination of fitness issues, lack of form or attitude problems.
    Hope we haven't been hoodwinked with these signings. It couldn't happen to BFC could it.......

    So, according to this thread, there's visa issues, attitude problems, fitness issues, and the coach just doesn't rate them.

    Hopefully Schopp gets asked some specific questions about it in today's presser to get some clarity.

    Why would it say more about the manager..if he's been given two duds?.. What says to me is non footballing people are signing the players based on what.. stats, cheap, could make a quick buck.. These two lads stats are woeful.. so Christ knows.
    What it does say to me is that head coach and club will part company sooner rather than later.. Gone by November.
