Unless someone can show me the stats, and how those stats stack up against other teams, I can and will deny it and put it down as another one of the tropes that football fans love to repeat but don't always stand up to scrutiny - (back to haunt us, anyone needing a win, never do well on televised games, never win crunch games etc.). This season we signed 11 players, none were ex. We brought in 7 loans, 2 were ex (one who left has a youngster before he played for us) I'm open to the argument it's easier to persuade ex-players to come back on loan, but I don't think we're unique in that regard.

Not quite my take. I take the view that the Board, for reasons unknown, neither "backed nor sacked" GA at the start of the season. Money was held back and given to SH in January. Questions should be asked about that indecision.

You don’t say? As I think I mentioned earlier in the thread the people who are going to buy the kits will buy them regardless of what they look like. I just don’t get why we can’t just stick to our classic and traditional kit, obviously with some tweaks here and there with every new kit. You don’t see Real Madrid or Leeds Utd, both clubs with a predominantly white kit, always trying to be out the box and different. They have their identify and they stick to it. I wish we would take a leaf out of their book.
