And another midfielder...

Town sign John Leonard:

He is purely a cover signing, as the team have picked up a few injuries recently. He will be gone in 6 weeks. The revolving door will keep going....

I take it you'd rather us not have any cover then. I remember people moaning when we only had 3 subs.

Indeed, I was one of the moaners, but Neil Aspin used to win matches!

We've got a squad of 22 players - and they are just the ones names on the town site - I'm sure there are many more they haven't bothered putting on.

It's ridiculous - I just dont feel like I know the team anymore. On matchday its like watching 2 unknown sets of players as a neutral

can't we just have the 20 man squad that everybody knows and loves

There are several players in the squad who can play midfield, so wind your neck in. There again, are you Weaver in disguise??

Apparently not - you quite obviously don't know your football. A gelled squad of players who know each other is NOT the way forward. You need just to observe the great manager we have to realise that.

Sagalout hits the nail on the head as to why a lot of our enthusiasm is waning these days: hard to identify with a team when it keeps changing, often for no good reason, a bunch of strangers wearing 'our' shirts.
