We can’t keep letting quality slip through our fingers if we want that L1 shield next year.

Well if Mustard can coach us & teach, see no reason why Joe can't coach Skolars & play for us. Was good i thought in his first Broncos stint & at 37 probably still better than some we have already signed. Need different training nights though.

So another week goes by. 2 in Albert and Latu. 2 out Boafo and Moran. Is that a win? I’m not convinced. What constitutes a minimum sized squad to compete for top half of Championship? I think we are some way off it. How that sells it to AFC Wimbledon crowd I have no idea.

This ain't a dig here, but why are people talking about top half champ and the better teams strengthening??

I think as soon as we went PT it was all about survival and avoiding relegation.

The problems at Broncos are known and have been discussed on here. If we a kid relegation, that is a good season (when I say good, it isnt, but in the context of where we are you get my drift).

In terms of how Wimbledon fans will take that, tbh, that's the clubs problem. I've been saying for ages that people wont flock to see a crap squad, proved that last year. Add to the fact marketing is non existent.

The thing that does make me laugh.......we have been crying out for some big meaty forwards for ages. We go PT then decide to bring some in.

I'm starting to wonder if there is a cunning plan for all of this

1) Decision to split to 2x10 teams for SL1 and SL2 is delayed unitl 2023
2) This means that 2022 is not the key season, 2023 will be
3) In 2023, if they decide to split for the 2024 season, they might allow the 2023 L1 winners a spot in SL2, as a promotion reward. (or have a playoff vs 8th in Champ)
4) Winning L1 in 2023 would be easier than finishing top 8 in Championship.

So are we planning to get relegated in 2022, and then push for a 2023 winning L1 to get us into 2024 SL2. As this can be the only reason for us filling the squad with L1 players, and letting our better championship players go.

Love a good conspiracy theory but where does paying for 3 bases fit into that. Admittedly AFC's performances are falling away towards the relegation area which might attract few more of them to give us a go but we still need a winning team which looks unlikely.

I think a cunning plan is probably beyond the LB office.
