| January additions on 19:06 - Nov 29 by Illinoisblue | Eh? Our two promotions were built on buying exactly that kind of player. We’ve spent close to 50 million pounds on our right side on “impact players” and not one has yet come close to being as good as Burns, a 500k signing from Fleetwood . Weirdly arrogant to dismiss players from the lower leagues. |
Whilst your underlying point is excellent, your figures are a long way out. Wes cost £125k from Fleetwood, 25% of figure you are quoting. That makes him an even bigger bargain than you think he is. He can take on, beat opponents & put in telling crosses, not forgetting his tracking back (look at stats when he plays). A fit Burns will be like a new signing that nowadays would be at least £25m if Mcateer was £12m.😉 |  | |  |

| January additions on 19:44 - Nov 29 by Illinoisblue | Not to get too bogged down in stats but Burns scored 1 in 9 for Fleetwood, why did we ever sign him? My broader point was, let’s chuck a million or two at some lower league players and see if we can strike gold. |
Because of his pace, speed kills |  | |  |

| January additions on 23:17 - Nov 29 by Illinoisblue | We chucked a lot of money at Mcateer, both in fee and wages. Early signs suggest that’s not going to be a great deal. We could argue until Xmas about transfers but whatever, the outcome is an unbalanced squad that is yet to really click. |
McAteer can't help the fee, he is taking time to bed in but will end up a solid signing in the end The boo boys seem to be after him and at times it seems more so from a general frustration from the whole team's performance rather than anything logical imho. He gets a lot of flack where others seem to be impervious |  |

In the last two games, he's missed from 3 yards and friday hit it as hard has he could to the corner flag when he could have put it on a plate for an easy tap it Yes some thoughts go OTT on him, but the frustrations about him aren't based on frustrations of the team, as an individual he's not been great. |  |
