Two promotions in 3 seasons - nuff said! Didn't win either league though - he does fab with his teams but we don't spend that extra to be top. I just think you need some of those championship-experienced players Sheff Utd and Bolton had to get out of L1. maybe, but those teams already have stadiums and infrastructure
DC and BRFC have to manage budget from both sides effectively and get the balance right

Top 10 of L1 is about our natural level while we're at the Mem, I think if our fans looked at a different club in this league with similar facilities etc. they'd say the same. You could achieve what Burton have, or Brentford, but the truth is that Burton probably won't be there long term and Brentford are looking to invest in facilities to keep up. Probably a bit of a struggle for us to sign players who interest teams with 20,000 attendances or parachute payments from the top flight.

I call that good business management why waste money on transfer when you can borrow a quality player on loan for season or half a season. Many would hate to admit but they would have Taylpr back on loan if meant we got promoted through his goals Problem is from our perspective there's no signs of any players joining the club, loans or permanent signings, whilst every other Div 1 club seems to be signing up players on a daily basis. Perhaps Lambert & Taylor are joining us on loan and Lumley & Sweeney are returning to join them but there's little info coming out of the club to know what's going on. We're not going to be told that we're about to sign this player or that player though are we ? Or would you rather we were just to keep you happy even though if it were a detriment to the club ?

I was just talking about the odd hint about such as when the club hope to announce a signing not a list of players were talking to! But it seems the nature of the forum at present just to jump down every ones throats if they don't tow to the party line. #rollonauguest

I thought it was positive and refreshing, he also referred to "The Project" on and OFF the field on a couple of occasions which suggests to me given he has signed for 5 years that its all moving along nicely. However, one worry , if any of you are familiar with or believe in body language , the tugging of his ear and rubbing his eyes are worrying indeed !! look it up its weird you say that. As the video was loading I wondered to myself what part of his head will he be mucking around with when the interview starts today. He's always doing that it's just what he does. I doubt it means anything at all. Darrel, next video interview you do stick your fingers in your mouth for top laughs. Just for clarity the comment was "tongue in cheek"

Not sure why you see that as so unbelievable when the bloke has mentioned the forums etc in the past a number of times and mentioned the negativity on here in his interview. How would he know if he didn't at least glance at them now and again? I'm not saying he's on here 24/7 but I think he takes the occasional glance.

I did not want to wind them up, all i wanted was to help a fellow football fan, but they do tend to get a bit excited amount things.
