Quote[/b] (shrimperman @ Nov. 23 2006,12:46)]All of 'em look like decent signings, I just hope Tillys got something in his locker to out fox the lot. For some reason I'm not confident he will...

This is what annoys me the cracks are appearing but we are all so loved up with Tilly I can see us letting ourselves get relegated

Dont get me wrong Tilly has done superb but him being out of his depth is showing!

I don't know if out of his depth is the right choice of words. I think Tillys problem is a lack of familiarity with players (and managers and agents) of this standard. If you look at the players he brought in whilst in League 2 they were superb. Slowly as we've risen the quality of signing has dropped and we're just signing good League 1 and 2 players. I still think Tillys a quality manager, he just hasn't got the 'tools to fix the leak' right now

The reason the Scum are getting Hamsters on loan is they are owned by a Hamster fan and his company sponsors them so I am told by my guvnor who is a hamster!

My only saving thought is that we always leave it late.....

We have the same panic every summer...Tilly dosent seem to like to rush......

I do agree to a certain degree Mark, but also worrying I think is that we've also yet to replace Ricketts never mind adding to the squad with loans.

To me that means we've played nearly half the season without a proper 2nd striker.

Yep, Cull Ewe are owned by the bloke who owns Jobserve, who sponsor the Hamsters.

I agree. I am also concerned... and I don't hold out much hope... but I'm just willing to wait and see what happens before I reacting.

Leon Knight in talks with Barnsley. I know Tilson has already ruled out the possibility of signing him but he is the sort of player we need. With good man management skills Tilson could make him into a great player with no attitude problem. WE NEED GOALS!!!

Do we really need a new Luke Guttridge/Michael Ricketts?

Not always enough though to be fair. Tilson could probably do without the potential hassle at this moment in time. I personally think we need some more faces in defence rather than attack.

maybe Steve Tilson wants to end up the same way ?

No Fear

But we aren't scoring enough goals to win games!

Because we normally need to score 4.

I can sense a chicken & egg argument brewing here.

That's just this season, we still haven't replaced all the lads we let go in the summer.
