Lets get behind Deano rather than all these comments .....
Its not his squad and you dont change it I'm one window
All the criticism of Whelan is unfair .... maybe its the unchain fans but what did he do wrong last week
One player who really needs to step up is Albert
This team should be good enough to win today

The squad at his disposal has been supplemented by players who are yet to get up to match speed.  Good luck with that Dean.



And that's his fault how? By definition if your getting players in on loan, its probably because they're not playing much 1st team football at their current clubs. If he's turning down premiership 1st teamers on loan then I agree, he's missing a trick

jesus, the guy's been here 3 months and he's supposed to have re-built the team already? I don't know what people were expecting in the transfer window but 6+ new players was perhaps a tad optimistic.
Exactly there’s a youthful policy in transfer window.... don’t keep complaining about the usual midfireld suspects. There is FFP to comply with too. Older guys and ripped up contracts be Leaving in summer they’ll back him further no matter which division we’re in.

Did I say it was Dean Smith's fault?  I wished him good luck with the squad he has had dumped on him.

Tammy had half a chance, nothing much else to say yet.

By “winning” do you mean, “Have the opposition not scored yet?”.

Should have been a goal for Tammy there.
