Hello Mr chairman,I'm sorry but I really don't understand the logic of having 3 goalkeepers within our squad,if the situation arose where by are 2 keepers were injured or suspended an emergency load would always be available, I really don't think are funds being appropriately used for the good of are great club.

Budget only relates to players and includes

Salary. Employer NI. Appearance Fee. Bonus's. Agent Fee's. Accommodation

It would appear that the likes of Yates, Dodds and Birchall will either be under pressure from the new recruits for their places or are going to be squad players as a starting point.

 

There can't be many Division 3 clubs with 3 goalies - maybe we'll send one out on loan (preferably Sam Johnson, who needs to learn from his shockers against Leyton and Colchester).

 

I'm sure there are plans to bring in a striker or two, Rob Page ain't daft!!

It looks like somebody somewhere has messed up not sure if it's Page or Smurf re the budget, we have made what look like decent signings so far but the squad is currently lacking any quality as an attacking threat we still need 2 first team strikers and 1 backup aswell the squad appears to have an imbalance of plenty of midfielders but no proven forwards, as mentioned before I think it highlights what most of us said re the retained list, did we really need 3 keepers, did we need to keep Yates when we had Duffy under contract who can play right back, where exactly is Birchall/Lloyd going to start games, we currently have 3 left backs under contract perhaps we should try to offload one of Mcgivern,Dicko or Deen-Conteh? I'll be renewing my season tickets this weekend so hopefully that will help a bit!

I've brought my season ticket today so that's another one. So that is 5 of us (there is 7 in the group of mates who usually attend matches) the other two I suspect will also renew before the deadline when they get paid, we have all had ST together for over 20 years so I'm 99.9% sure they will renew.

We all wanted a clear-out in the summer but the only clear-out has been of the quality players.

 

Instead we're left with deadwood like Yates, Birchall and Doods and only the suggestion of strikers before August 8th.

 

Looks like a major communication error between Page and Smurf or total incompetence. Or both.

The only 'deadwood' that re-signed were those three (I'd actually dispute your phrasing) and, considering the fact that we only have maybe 10 experienced outfield players in the squad, I'd suggest this may be a positive thing. I don't understand how our current players have accounted for so much of the budget but I would add that I think that all teams in our league would have a GK, substitute GK and a youth team GK.
