• Ian (6) - I like the look of that team.rnrnHopefully last season\'s signings will have now \"settled in\", and this season\'s can gel early.rnrnEventually, swap out Tarks for Branthwaite, and I think we are then looking at our strongest team and one that might well be challenging for the European places, come the end of the season....

• Very intriguing reply Nicolas, because it explains a lot about the mentality of a footballing nation that have been in several World Cup finals, and have been world champions, on three separate occasions.rnrnEngland, had Argentina, exactly were they wanted them imo, but because of poor decisions by the coach, and because they still lack that real winning mentality, they lost to an inferior (imo) team, who simply had more desire to win the game....

• Every pre season is the same the window opens and it's linked with linked with linked with everyone with a pair of boots just to keep the fans quiet. In reality, we rarely sign anyone until the last week of the window... Are we really that skint we're trying to save on wages until the last minute? As far as I can remember, the last time we got players in early, we sort of qualified for the Champions League till Collina f***ed us over?
