The comments are up on a few news sites. Of course the cynic in me had to add my interpretation of those comments. It’s just the frustration I feel at the disintegration of our playing squad. We haven’t a cat in hells chance of surviving in this tough division let alone promotion the way things are going.
I hope I’m wrong, but to compare, Sunderland sold all their experienced players and look where they are now,
Newcastle kept all theirs and they bounced back up, little Burnley did the same.
Cardiff were languishing at the bottom of the Championship season before last. The following season they brought Warnock in, he went for experienced players like Hoilett, Bamba, Zohore, Mendez-Laing, Halford, Gunnarsson, etc. They won their first 5 matches, never looked back and got promoted with 90 points as runners up to champions Wolves.
So far it looks as if we are going to rely on the under 23’s, over the hill players like Routledge and Dyer and returning loan players like Grimes and Fulton.
