A Terrier's Tale.....

Been trying to make sense of recent goings on, but didn't really want this post descending into a rant!! It has only been three games after all, however all does not look well. A plethora of central midfielders, no solution to the "..no left winger.." problem, Andy Holdsworth playing at right back (when on last seasons form he should be in midfield), rumours of discontent from the dressing room (and only rumours in case you are reading this Stan). Not promising.

From what I hear we should expect another signing (yes, yet another) tomorrow, this time a left winger from Dagenham and Redbridge. Hopefully the missing bit of the jigsaw!

I suppose expecting all those new players to gel straightaway is a bit much to ask, and maybe we should see where we are after 10 games (we might even still be in the League Cup as well by then, you never know) and complain then if nothing improves.

I expect the fact that we are 23rd in League One is nothing more than a temporary blip and we will put it all together eventually. But cheap season tickets or not, I do not expect attendances to rise past 13,000 at the moment. I will be at the Tranmere game Sept 13th, and I'm hoping we will have a couple of league wins under our belt by then. Playing Jevons would help, but if he is one appearance away from an extra £25,000 to Bristol City and not-Stans-sort-of-player it probably wont happen.

Wouldn't do any harm sending the likes of Berrett, Killock and even Tom Clarke out on loan, it would send out a bold statement by the gaffer by saying that although he has brought in new players, the youngsters we already have are important for the future, let them get some experience elsewhere. I think any offer for Luke Beckett would see him gone soon as well (transfer window shuts soon though).

Oh well, onwards to Wednesday and our cup game against Sheffield United.....
