Really?.. just like Christmas time in 2015 to 2016, he still believed we were in for at least a sniff of the play off's. He bought them in to bulk up the squad we currently lost at the time (and he bought them in loan). Remember we had Oxley out and in hindsight (he is still out) Ferdinand, White, Thompson, Innis, & our top scorer Mooney was also out also!) Adding to that we had the "Ranger-gate" trial.The manager is doing a good job overall, but I'm not clear why we signed Amos, Hines, Nouble in the window when none of them are likely to start, and we had promising youngsters wanting a place on the bench already. In last season's January window he did the same thing - added more average players who provided more quantity and little extra quality - I'm surprised he hasn't learned. Unless he thinks he's keeping the rest of them on their toes by doing this.
Give him a break, basically he made the best of a bad situation, and in hindsight, I'm sure, he would have spent the additional funds that he may (or might not have had in other area's of the team).
