Cracking interview so far, would recommend tuning in if you haven't already! Looking to bring in: 2 keepers One left back Dominant left footed centre half Defensive midfielder Attacking midfielder Left winger 3 centre forwards Got his first choice in mind for each and a couple of 2nd choices if he has to. Made it clear he now wants investment in the team. Wants a top 10 budget. Aim is the Championship Wouldn't you just love to see that piece of paper the day after the window closes? how many ticks against no.1 targets, how many 2nd and 3rd, and how many all crossed out and the seventeenth suggestion ringed and ticked!? Actually that leads to one question no one got to ask DC that it might have been interesting to get his take on...we've often mentioned a perception that our geographical location has contributed at least in part to an inability to attract the calibre of players we'd like to sign. Does where we are impact the likelihood of landing those no1 targets?

Nice idea, but I doubt many will do it. Why are we seeing a fellow supporter called a 'scab' and nothing done about it ? I thought we had the 'attack the post not the poster' mantra on here ? Eh, maybe I'm too young to have a problem with the word? It hardly an insult these days really is it? It's not exactly the same as when peoples lives were effected and their livelihood threatened. It's only football. Or am I reading this thread wrong and people are genuinely getting nasty?? Hugo, name calling has not and will not hurt my feelings, i'm just putting over my point they i have a right to choose who and what i support. I will defo be going to all the home games in this compitition and i will take some friends along with me to enjoy the discounted entrance fees. Maybe these friends will turn into supporters and not just fans like we have on this forum

Is Henbury a strike breaking miner from the 1980's ? I had no idea people still used words like this. We should bring back more old words like cad, bounder etc., No he just reads this thread with a massive boner. Think the word "massive" is maybe not the word i would use at my age..paltry comes to mind

Didn't DC make some flippant comment recently about player will play anywhere for an extra £500?

I don't agree. We must all support the club in whatever way we see fit. I don't think those that attend are making the right decision, but that doesn't make me right. No fan is any better than another in relation to this issue. The fault lies firmly with the EFL for introducing such a flawed competition and with the Chairman of the Clubs that voted for it. Harvey won't be satisfied until he has killed off all but 20 football clubs.

Yes, that's my belief but that doesn't make me a better fan than anyone else.
