In the meantime you mean 5-6 games?

Patience
Until January when we can get a senior pro signed.

There is no time for patience when you're rock bottom with 0 points, unless you want to be aiming for a top 3 finish... of the bottom 8
Who said we are aiming for a top 3 finish.

Again, this anger is all because there is a massive disconnect between fans expectations this season and the club. The budget reflects that
That’s fair enough but even so we should still have a couple of points on the board by now

Read what I said again, top 3 of the bottom 8 is just above the relegation spots. The club senior management often talk about the league being split into chunks of 8 teams and right now we look set for a battle in the lower end of that

The budget is 10% higher than last year. And that was whilst carrying full salaries for Moncur, Piggot and Edwards/Adu-Adjei rather than a proper footballer.
10% higher yes but we don’t know how much of el Miz wages we were paying for example.if it was nothing or next to nothing 10% more budget ain’t gonna bring in an equal quality player

Sorry I misread. Honestly, I think the board will consider this season a success if we finish 16th

2 of our most influential and important players last season have not been replaced.
El Miz - not replaced and is the reason why we are not driving forward with the ball in midfield and supplying the wide players, he is a massive miss and we have really missed him, irreplaceable with our budget in L1!!
Shaq Forde - we do not have a wide outlet on the right who can cut in and score goals, he had a great relationship with Dan Agyei when they played together, again another big miss.

We don’t have wide players this season.

I like Shaq but come on, he was hardly one of our most influential players last season.
