New players on the way according to Gus.

[darters74]

Bennett won't be coming back down here. He's constantly on the Norwich bench and gets on regularly.

I wish people would cut Harley some slack. I admit that I didn't like him at first, especially after the poor excuse of a penalty at Millwall, but the last couple of times I've seen him he's been good, especially in the first 20 mins against Burnley before he got subbed. The only criticism I have of him is he needs to put more of a shift in.......

Do we really wanna go up this season or build a team for a title push next year I think the latter......

I still think we are doing spectacularly well.

Were top half with a L1 side.

Of all our signings we have hardly seen, Hoskins, Buckley, Vicente and Lua Lua for one reason or another, generally injured.

Only CMS of the big money signings has been regular, and I think he has been terrific.

When these 4 are available and fit, with a few extra additions ( Reyes for 1 ) we are going to be a very very good championship side

My, my ,how things have changed since the start of the season. After a handful of games some posters were saying PL here we come, now it's Poyet doesn't know what he's doing. Right from the start it's been clear that certain players have been found out at this level and some others are finding it hard going. The Boss has tried this and that and now it's clear he will , if he can, bring in new players. Fans should remember a team is not built in a day, players will come and go and what we're watching at this time is a side being built. IMO we will not be going up this season, so supporters? get ready for a few more bad results while we build a team to push for promotion.GET BEHIND YOUR CLUB!

I don't think it's ever the same fans though saying one thing at one stage of a series compared to whats being said at another. Too many people like your good self then categorise fans as such. I think the vast majority, inc me, were pinching themselves early on and weren't surprised we eventually tailed off. But what's been most disappointing is the drop in what I would call entertainment e.g. shots on target, goals, the ability to keep 11 men on the pitch. BHA have become a desert with respect to the former two and for a good 12 or so games now. Expressing frustration about that is to be expected and frankly, is pretty fair criticism unless you subscribe to the any criticism of the team is disloyal, FO etc. Which I don't.

Bloom and Gus have discussed bringing in new players to push for promotion. ?

I don't know what everyone else thinks but if we are going to bring in new players, it's more likely to be to steady the ship and to avoid a relegation scrap rather than have any expectation at all of getting promoted

I don't see how you can say we'll be a very very good championship side. Because that's the rub isn't it - all these players are continually injured, so when exactly are they going to play together? Moreover, Buckley has potential but is far from proven at championship. KLL is similarly unproven as is Hoskins. The only one we know can cut the mustard is Vicente but he's the very definition of injury-plagued pro never likely to recapture his former glories.

Yep. This season has been brilliant,as I guess we all knew it would be. We'd all like all the players fit, we'd all like to win every game, and eventually we'd all like promotion.

I loved the Goldstone, hated Gillingham (though thanks),and grew to quite like the Withdean experience which was,after all,a brilliantly successful period in the club's history. But Falookaville is something else. I hope the team building will be as successful,and I'm ever hopeful when I open up this confuser of mine that I'll see we have signed even better players than the ones currently deserving every penny they're paid.

For me,we need a new Dave Hollins, a new Ian Goodwin and from somewhere a new Wardy. Come on Gus. That's not hard !

Plenty on the list,but wages are still a big problem fact

makes sense - we are still geared to/in transition from League One wages so breaking the structure takes time
