It’s the fact that we still need 4 or 5 good quality additions that is getting everyone worried. The season starts in 12 days and there is currently no sign of anyone coming in, in the near future. That's your opinion but you cannot state as fact we need 4 or 5 quality additions. Most will concur we will need at least two to get us up and running, then we have another month before the window closes to assess things. That period could also allow for whether we lose JM or not. Course I can state that. We haven’t replaced Maorsi, Butler, Downing, Kane or Wilkes, and still need a alternative up top to marquis. 4 of those 5 mentioned most would agree were top quality players. So are you suggesting we don’t need top quality players to replace them. If you are then I hope your happy with a season with where a mid table finish is considered as successYou are not Darren Moore. You cannot say as fact we need to replace Morosi. You cannot say as fact we need an alternative to JM.. What was the alternative last season?You cannot say as fact that Ben Sheaf will not be as effective as Kane in midfield. We may not need a clone of Herbie if the sum of the parts across midfield work effectively. Only Darren Moore can make those assessments.

Don’t forget Moore is shopping in a different market now as well.

We may not need a clone of Herbie if the sum of the parts across midfield work effectively. Only Darren Moore can make those assessments. The alternative to Marquis last season was Wilkes, Tyler Smith and May, 2 of those proved to be not good enough. I was classing Sheaf as a replacement for Rowe. It’s obvious to most fans except it seems You, that we are 4-5 good players short at the minute from have another tilt at the play offs.
Sm, you both stated it, you stated it on here!! Told everyone not to panic lol..come on mate..
Everyone has there own opinion and yes it’s completely divided with the fans, but when the board say things and it doesn’t happen well what’s happening??? A classic example of bad management.... we received Darren’s cv and knew straight away he was the man for us!! So why wait 2 week for the inevitable and let 2 weeks of precious pre season planning go down the pan?? I’m sorry I just don’t understand that one.. I appreciate the board do a sterling job with the community etc but as for the real business they haven’t a clue whatsoever and a although personally I’ve never been an admirer of a footballing director I seriously think we might need to go that way.
I’ve said nothing about targets mate I’m just talking about facts. We are still in l1 the dons are further down the ladder than when they took over, so how is it working? I can’t see championship football or super league can you??? There’s no ambition at all it’s my opinion and shared by many. Off the pitch the club has made great strides and must be congratulated on a brilliant job but on the pitch it’s not good, everything is being done on a shoestring and everyone can see it.

Exactly then, how can Rotherham have a bigger budget than us ??

This is getting farcical.I suppose it was the boards fault Rowe and Marquis missed their penalties in the play off semi?
Considering theve just bought the kid from Plymouth for 500k Id say they have lol..Shrewsbury have pushed the boat out,FleetwoodPeterborough CovRotherham How on earth are these bigger than donny apart from cov?
