Our Recruitment Policy

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

Do yo umind if I repost this on a few other forums? Sums things up better than I can?

Haha. Whatever you like, you can email it directly to our owner if you wish. Just dont tell him where I live though, I prefer my house to remain standing!

Bad news Salvatore...

This is something that has been mentioned on this forum numerous times and it needs its own thread.

We need a proper recruitment policy put in place at this football club.

The way in which we recruited last summer was a scatter gun approach that cannot be repeated again this summer.

For the record, Mendes and Marinakis have NOT fallen out and Mendes has already recommended 3 players from Portugal for Olympiakos (allegedly) for next season.

Looks like you were bang on with this Sniffer.

Unfortunately it has been repeated again this summer.

The thing is that it's the only way they (our owners) know.

They have no connection to English football, our city or our club. So they are going down the tried and trusted route that has worked well for them in Greece. The problem is that we are in England.

Marinakis doesn't spend much time in Nottingham so he has hired his tried and trusted troops to run the club, Vrentzos, Dourekas and Modesto.

It could turn out to be a huge mistake, I really hope not but time will tell.

Think there is a massive over reaction following yesterday’s result.

Prior to that, on the poll, everyone was saying we had a stronger squad than last season.

In my mind, Semedo, Silva, Adomah are deifinite improvements.

Sow, Ribeiro, Mir it is too early to say.

Let’s judge at end of window - loads will happen this week

Let's hope so.

Not on pitch for long - but Mir looked lively.

Agreed, had we nicked a goal second half the reaction would’ve been completely different. WBA are a very good team with a highly rated manager. Look at the other results, it happens.

Sign a new RB, striker and a CB and we’ll look solid on paper. Bit thin at centre mid still but players to come back. Have yacob/gueddy left? We really could do with Sow being good though!

Never looked like knicking a goal. Their goalie didnt make one save of note in the 2nd.

We dont need a CB unless it's a leftie. Daws & Worrall were okay yesterday. Milosevic, Figs and Benalouane are all more than decent options as well.

We need quality up front and in central midfield. Time to invest or talk of promotion looks deluded.

I wish we would only sign players who will definitely improve our first XI no more squad players or much of a muchness players.
I honesty wouldn't care if we didn't sign any players for next two seasons as we run down contracts to trim the squad. It's not like we don't have enough players to see us through, especially with the very promising batch of youngsters currently knocking on the door.
