It always feels like new rules are a pretence doesnt it, always some back door to keep things as they are. I dont think its naivety, it must be deliberate, you dont need much intelligence to realise a sponsorship ban is just that, no sponsorship, but then it somehow gets written as on front of shirts only.

For me I accepted it as supporting our manager, wasnt thrilled about the 3 years. Then when Enzo left soon after this contract was done, it then hit home how ridiculous it was.

We have forgotten how to build players, just keep going for finished articles and veterans.

This is where good DoF's earn their wage, good ones can get rid of mould, bad one's can only get rid of cream.

Its so predictable isnt it. Just keep doing the same thing again and again.

I think you already know the answer. I expect all those players to be gone within 2 years and we do more dads army signings.

Wow wtf. Normally a relegation to league one of a club our size is a option to use all young players. Instead its selling all our young players.

We need to stop with patch work signings, and do stuff with more long term sense. Its a huge part of our current issues.

As long as he doesnt question the transfer policy or hurt our image in another way he will be safe, thats likely more important to our owners than performance for LCFC women at this point. The squad management is enough evidence to show we dont care about the women's team. Only Kirk had reasonable backing.

Yep this is a whole new level of worse. Mahrez still played for us for a number of years. This is like we groom someone up, and then as soon as they ready, they gone, doesnt feel right at all. The sport needs changing that requires academy players to stay at parent club for X years unless the club forfeits the right. I just cant really become attached to any youth player, because with our current policy, the ones who are any good will be sold quickly to fund an inflated wage bill.

So you think league one is like the EPL then? Feels like I am talking to Rudkin. We get a 33 year old not hungry, high risk, high salary ex EPL player to play in league one, by the small chance we get a double promotion we then have a 35 year old as our main striker. Or we do what we used to do and what most clubs at this level do, buy or promote a young hungry striker, let him gain experience in league one, then the championship, and hopefully later the EPL, when at that point he has had at least 2 seasons with the team, hungry for more, and bedded into the club. All whilst being cheaper to pay, and having resale value.

You at least have the argument of EPL experience for the EPL, in League one there is no need for such experience.

Yep, this strategy of signing ageing ex EPL players, I think some blamed on Cooper, but it has been carried on.

Perfect player for the manager, 3 year extension?

Ings signing is closing in, only 33 years of age,
