I'm watching that game today...not one of our players would get in that Barnet team. Not one.
There must be one LWB in the country who we could sign.
There must be one attacking midfielder in the country who would improve our dog $#!€ midfield.
Apparently not...not one...nope, no one.
A number of the players today were in the team that tonked Barnet 3-0 away a couple of seasons ago. I'm just in the give KM more time camp but its getting difficult to argue we're getting the best out of what we have. Albeit losing Cards, Kensdale and now Pepple is a grim handicap to deal with.

Maybe Pedder might consider a lower wage now he still doesn’t have a club
 
Something just does not add up to me. Kev cannot be that stupid not to see we need players in. Are his hands tied, his demands to much, none of it makes sense as there must be players out there atm that would help in our dire situation, even if just on loan.
They're trying to re-invent the wheel when they don't need to. It's clearly not working, scrap it now before we waste too much time and money on it and go back to a "proper" scouting setup

Using the new approach of what we have been doing plus using data is just beginning. It’s ridiculous to judge it. Our ‘proper scouting’ under John Still has been awful on the whole. It isn’t like we are changing away from an approach that has yielded loads of success stories.

COSU had good intent sharing an update but should never have publicly stated the addition of focus on data for scouting & recruitment. It’s being used as a stick to beat them with and totally misunderstood by some of our fanbase

See Cardwell was an unused sub today.
Lee ndlovu been at Boreham wood for a few years always thought he could do a job for us and can’t believe we didn’t go for him when Boreham wood got relegated. Stan was our best scout.

I wouldn’t say that. GSM, Kensdale, Morton, Miley, Taylor, Cardwell, Wind and Pepple have all been really good signings. There’s been some duds, but it’s unrealistic to expect a 100% strike rate.

I’ll still stand by the opinion that we’d be in a different position now if we were able to recruit freely in the summer.

There is no denying that we would be in a different position if we could have recruited freely in the summer but the matter of fact that Maher just isn’t able to change the way we play when you can clearly see it is not working, his obsession with 3 centre halves is causing issues today we were crying out for attacking width but as usual he doesn’t change it.

And to go back to the recruitment thing … we have been able to recruit freely for a while now and that still hasn’t happened.

Something just isn’t adding up right now
 
Slough I dont see the games it is obvious we need to spend. If we can't I understand. The committee have saved us. So we're now. It seems to me the players we have are either badly coached or not very good. I beleave it's somewhere in-between. But guys it's money. If you haven't got it then be satisfied with national league halfway up.³

They aren’t trying to re-invent the wheel.

It’s a method used in many different sports, by many different clubs. Obviously, Brentford and Brighton have been highlighted on here numerous times, FGR have a similar method too.
