And this my point we are in the bottom six, we cannot afford "free roles"
mid table to play off contending, then yeah build a team around him
Why can't we afford 'free roles', if it works it could be the difference between staying up and going down. |

I was just reminiscing. Remember when Carr signed Morley, Hill, Reed, McGoldrick, all from non-league. Then picked up Gleasure, Gilbert, Benjamin & Willcox from fellow Division 3 clubs, plus McPherson from West Ham. It can be done. At least it was once.

Managers like Bowen and Wilder* are rare to come by! Whether we like it or not Jon Brady is the only recent Manager who can possibly follow in their* footstops!
We should stick with him, as at the moment he is our only hope of survival as a EFL Club!

Have I missed something? Has Calderwood officially joined the club in some capacity or other or not? If not I'm beginning to wonder if I would not prefer Sean Dyche to come in as DOF.

Do you really think we'll get a premier league manager to turn his back on management at this stage in his career to become director of football on a salary reduction of approx £78,000 every single week? |

CC probably not committing to us, as he's probably just waiting for Russell Martin to get another job soon...
Is it really worth investing again in him, if he's just going to bail at the first opportunity?
Any actual update on this ntfclad?

I think you will find fitness and technical ability have moved on exponentially since 1986, however there are still some players in non league that could do a job in L2, not so sure about L1 and above though. |

Can you imagine the social media if it was around in those days?  |

In the 1960's players were in the Flamingo club on Friday nights.
Barry Lines used to catch the train from Bletchley and walk up to the County Ground to play.

A surprising signing given our stats based scouting system
We have a scouting system??  |
Pronoun "bloke".

Trying to get this thread back on track  No inside knowledge whatsoever, but knowing how hard it is to get in a striker esp in January, could be looking at one of these two on loan for the rest of the season... Olly Sanderson or Joe Hugill Both sent back by Bradford & Wigan, so available to re-loan elsewhere... Might fit in better here with how KN wants us to play... Let's face it, ANYONE would be an improvement on the injury plagued wooden legged Wilson!!! KN mentioned on the radio last night that he was the link man between the youngsters at WHU & the first team, so I'm hoping he's earmarked one or two young WHU gems to come in... |
