We're going to struggle if we don't go up - we'll have the pressure to be good from the off next time.

I expect we'll sign none or one or two or three or four players and may or may not get promoted.

Who is Charlie Austin ?

No wonder my post count..
You forgot one name - Majewski.

I think signing the Swindon kid would be a mistake. He's only been playing in the football league for a year, taking up to a high flying championship team would be a nightmare for the kid.

Stuart Pearce
He also plays in shitty League One. McGoldrick would probably be the best striker in that league if he'd stayed with Southampton.

Yeah , let's dismiss anyone from the lower leagues. Let's sign Ronaldo , Ronaldinhio , Kaka , Pato & Messi instead because we are former european champions eh ?

If you want to be an idiot and take it to extremes, why don't we not bother with players that are better than ours, lets stick to buying players from shit leagues. Then one day we can get back there.

f***ing spot on, I certainly didn't get enough of away trips to grounds where you go for a piss against a wall round the back of the stand first time around. ;)

We could have local derbies against County, Mansfield, Chesterfield, Ilkeston, Eastwood, Hucknall, Dunkirk and LTLF FC. :excited:

Because the likes of Pearce , Birtles , Keane etc doesn't have humble beginnings. They all came from champion's league teams straight away. Just because someone is playing in league one doesn't automatically mean that they are crap.
Imagine if West Brom had your mentality , they wouldn't have bought Dorrans who is now the best midfielder in the championship. If they are good enough , it doesn't matter what league they are in. We should never overlook potential gems in the lower leagues , it's fine and all we keep going after pie in the sky signings like our club had been doing in january , can you really say that they will perform accordingly ?
All i am saying is that we should never overlook the lower leagues. Roberto Martinez made a career out of plucking unknowns from the lower leagues and making them work.

McGoldrick wouldn't score more goals that Grant Holt or Beckford at that level. When he was on loan at Port Vale 2 seasons ago, he only scored twice in 18 games.

My attitude is don't sign players just because they've had a decent season in a shit league. I never said we should overlook the lower leagues but its rare you get players that are good enough for the Premiership there. You're the gimp that was going on about champions league players not me.

You sign lower league players and you'll eventually become a lower league team. They're lower league players for a reason.

promoted or not i still think we should go in for pratley the guy was the best player on the pitch at the city ground and he had just returned fron injury
 

Collymore!

Jack Armstrong
If we don't go up... Jordi Gomez could be a good signing...

I would also like a bid for Sylvan Ebanks-Blake... Think we may need to shift a couple of the strikers we have on...

Away day formation could be

Anderson Gomez McKenna Majewski Cohen
SEB

I wouldn't want any of them if we go up though.
