If we don't make a miracle happen this year, we need some serious additions for next year. Quality additions, not a million random imports hoping one or two work.

IF by miracle we sneak promotion ( dreaming I know) with this lot....we have NO ONE good enough for the Premiership...we have to replace a whole team from the keeper to the striker...maybe half a dizen can be good for the bench but that is about it. Yesterday showed the best we have against a team that will hoover at the bottom places of the Premiership. Pls keep in mind that many keep mentioning Lolley as our best player...he was offloaded by a team that will be playing in the Championship next season...Colback?... no team in the Premiership ever bothered to take him from Newcastle nd the same player was happy to play for us nd not hold for a Premiership team. Even Villa...why Mings didnt find a Premiership team for the rest of the season? Same applies to Abrahams...nd these r considered the big guns in this division....that shows you the gap it exists between what we have nd what we need to win promotion nd more importantly to not beat Derbys record in the Premiership..

Think that's the same for every club that's promoted though isnt it? And there's always players that step up to the higher level who you might not expect to. 

But I agree with your general point, watching us struggle against Villa last night, did illustrate the vast difference in class between us and them.
