So, might we be heading this way? Looks like signings will be at a minimum. Any new manager is probably going to have to blood the kids. Macca may do it, depending on how long he's given at the helm.

Frankly the expectations now have plummeted. I don't see how getting the likes of Fonzie and Albrighton to play far more regularly could do us any harm. I think we've more than enough quality in the squad and within the youth, to finish mid-table.

Continue on with selling the likes of Sidwell.

Perhaps some good may come out of this. Any new boss will not have time to do anything this window and as such there may be litte option but to blood some youngens.

Yep, feel more pro this line of thinking under current circumstances.

I could be patient enough I think. But I suspect AY may not, and that's a concern.
