Fishermanscap, had we signWestermans 3 year ago would have been happy .But now with is dodge knee that can pop out at any time would not have signed him to much of a gamble to me .Did not know the new signing as had 3 operation on is shoulder .Look what happened last year when we were playing players who ad to play while injured . We did not look good again untill the last 5 games when we had brought 3 new fit players in and we could put 17 fit players on the field. Thought the club would have learnt from this
Toms had 2 operations on his knees-should we not sign him?
Every player plays a,little bit injured- Chris green was injured against London but still played -should we not have played him
I could point out that bill, Reece, Dave, T have all started new deals this off season, you don’t think they’ve signed for less do you? Sometimes retention is more important then recruitment.
I’d love to know what more can be done to fit 32 players into a 1.8 million budget?
As for the assertion, that big signings mean more fans, in my 6 year experience this has never happened. The only thing that has generated fans has been hard work at a community level getting into schools etc etc. Even winning doesn’t do it. As soon as you lose they disappear.
