  1. Players are interested in:

    1.  Money

    2.  Length of contract

    3. Club / manager / facilities / teammates

    There will always be some that buck the trend, but we will struggle against some in the Championship with number 1 and maybe number 2 until the (thank you Mr Chairman) infrastructure starts to yield increasing returns and we get close to similar incomes.

    Bad managers can always spunk money with no return, and good managers can get better returns from less, but if we are seriously looking at a challenge for promotion, I can’t see it happening for at least another 2 or 3 season - unless the board take a gamble.

    I wouldn't be against Adeloye returning as he's clearly a capable player at this level. The narrative about him being lazy or whatever was just nonsense. I'd be interested to see what a front pairing of Adeloye and Dowds would be like but I don't think it's likely.

    The whole will he/won't he stay carry on wasn't exactly great though. That may be something some supporters find it hard to get past. 

    I’d happily get past it if he is banging them in at the Somerset Road end every other week

    Think it's time to stop piling on with this one. Demonstrably he was limited and ended up huffing his own farts over a ludicrously lucky Champ Man style signing but nobody doubts he was trying his best and certainly did more for the club's image around the town than the two chancers who had been in before him. He's obviously got back room strengths and still has plenty of time to do something with them.

    You assumed I was kidding!

    I was actually thinking how well he would have done with a non football role for all of the reasons you mentioned.

    Mutch, Clarke (if he signs) and Ecrepont will all benefit hugely from him coming back. As will the Academy keepers coming through. 

    I genuinely think with Brown, Whitaker and Timmins, and White and Tait at the Academy we now have the strongest coaching set up in the Championship. If we can give them the raw material to work with I'm confident we'll have a good season.

    I think there is room for another coach in there somewhere

    No one knows what he’s delivering off the pitch. Just because you don’t like him because some unconscious/conscious bias doesn’t mean he hasn’t brought anything to the club. For all we know, he could be the reason brown is at the club now! 

    I have zero bias and I don’t dislike him at all.

    I have just seen with my own eyes that he has done nothing on the pitch.

    I agree that he may well be doing things off it that may benefit the club, but who knows!
