Im beginning to believe...

This year may not be as bad as I originally thought.

Theres still a big element of unknown which can be dangerous, as if things dont work out, we may quickly find ourselves in a rut that will be difficult to get out of... but

1. Do we look competitive? Much more so than six weeks ago, and will look good with two good strikers

2. Do we have strength in depth? Yes, apart from strikers

3. Do we have Championship experience? Yes, in certain areas, and the experienced players really need to step up to the plate

4. Do we have matchwinners? Well, with two new strikers maybe, but Ill just say Ollie Tanner who reminds me of A Jack Grealish with an arrogant style.

5. Do we have players that can play a different formation? Yes

6. Will we struggle this year? I dont think so, or we shouldn't

If this season proves successful Morison will have performed a major miracle, and the Regime should be indebted to him.

Last year we had two youngsters, Colwill and Davies, try and make a meaningful breakthrough with varying degrees of success.

Next year if we can push two more into the squad, then 4 youngsters over a 2 year period is phenominal.I dont yet rate King, BUT he is a fit lad, and confident. Crole tucked his goal away nicely against Newport and seems to have the physicality to tackle a half decent defence.

Last year the Regime pushed youngsters on the management team, and it was clear they were not good enough with a lot now plying their trafe at League two or National League level.

If this season proves unsuccessful then we can argue the point at the time.

All I will say is we have a better squad than last season BUT that was not difficult to achieve.

I'll give it the first 12 games to decide how we are doing. I'm expecting us to do ok but we will in these 12 games see holes that need filling. If these holes appear then hopefully they will get filled the next summer. I am not a fan of the January window to do that. this is why i will be happy with a mid table finish and anything above that is a bonus.

Your quite correct. Im not saying we are necessarily going to be challenging, but For the first time in a long while, last pre season included, I dont think we will struggle.

The squad is better and bigger, time will tell if its good enough.

I was reading some old Craig Bellamy interviews on his time here and he says that SM's rebuild is perhaps one of the most important and long needed changes at the club for many years. He said SM's lack of experience shouldn't be seen as a problem and that he's a fan of the style of football he wants to play - building from the back, fast attacking style, high press and quickly winning the ball back for more possession. I also think another key factor is that it appears that we have recruited players with a point to prove. We all know that we do need to address the CF position but I'm genuinely excited as to how quickly SM has recruited 12 players with hopefully a few more to come. This fundamental change needed to happen and it has, more out of circumstance rather than design but I do see this as a significant step in our evolution, however things actually pan out this season.

Totally agree

I’m going out to potentially hang myself out to dry here.

However, I think we will surprise both ourselves, and a lot of teams in the championship too!

I think we finish mid-table without an out and out goal scorer. If we have a goal scorer, I don’t see why we couldn’t finish top 6!

I’m still not convinced unless we get a proven striker in. Until then I still say mid table would be a very good season. I’m sure we will get one before the window closes mind!

This year may not be as bad as I originally thought.

Oh my god you’ve seen the light!

I went dizzy when I saw your thread.

I’m not sure which part of you has decided it could be possible?

I’ll watch this space to see if you slide back into the doom merchant thankless critic of the club.

Hopefully you’ve jumped above being criticised as a so called referee.

I look forward to the transformation and glad to see you back after leaving and coming back hmm.

I enjoyed reading that

If we stay above the relegation zone I'll be happy eitherway. Anything else is a bonus in my eyes as its more or less a new squad so im not
expecting miracles or nore will i be calling for the manager out after 10 games if we aint in the top six considering we have spend very little but some will no doubt

I guess Ill take that as a compliment, but rest assured, I will remain a critic of the club whilst the regime treat the supporters and history of the club with distain.

The things I dont want the club to be...

1. A laughing stock
2. Not being competitive
3. Having next to no strength in depth

The regime has happily allowed us to be all of these over the last couple of years.

I believe any success this year will surprise the Regime as much as us fans.

Now lets see if they can approve a few quality strikers, and I might even break into a smile.

And referee? I was a good one, as you may or may not know.

Im a Bluebird first and foremost, and there'll be a party when this regime is gone.

What I am seeing, for the first time in a good while, is some solid championship experience. But lets not sugar coat this, Ive also seen some abysmal defending in pre season. The difference now might be that we have half decent players that can push those currently in pissession of the shirt.

I’m still not convinced unless we get a proven striker in. Until then I still say mid table would be a very good season. I’m sure we will get one before the window closes mind!

Agree - a striker is needed .

"The regime should be indebted to him " that is one of the most stupid things I have read by you and you've said a few.
The club ( not regime) employ SM, The club provide funds for SM.
The club gets players in not SM.

Bye.

Pot and kettle regarding stupid comments.

Who picks the targets then? The club or SM? SM will have found the players he wants not the other way around.

Managers get a shortlist of players wanted and then present to the club.

If the players turn out to be stars then SM is the one who has done a fantastic job and the club should be very pleased with his work.

Why is it that when something goes bad it's because of the 'Regime', and when something goes well it's down to the manager. The club brought morison in, the club promoted and made him full-time manager, the club brought in his team around him and have signed off all these signings. The club are responsible for everything that happens, good and bad. You cant pick and choose when it suits your agenda.

Ive never been rude or used bad language on this MB, but you guys make it difficult to hold my tongue.

Ive addressed some positivity around the team because there is some, its not life changing pisitivity, as there are still a LOT of unknown signings in there.

Any success this year will be in spite of the Regime not because of it. Regimes Dont make silk purses out of sows ears.

Forget about the 'signing on fees'and 'agents fees'. EVERY CLUB PAYS THOSE. This regime has spent NOTHING... again.

You say I am biased? Then look inwards at what you say. Ive posted a thread containing some positivity, and youve turned it to Your own agenda.

Yes indeed.....respect to you, but there are some that I am just keep needing to explain myself to because they have their own agenda.

You've Literally just confirmed the point I was making. The club operates as exactly that, a club. Any success this season will be because of morison and his teams hardwork as well as the backing he's received from the 'regime'. The club brought morison in, they've allowed him to build his team and they've allowed him to bring in 12 players - and counting.

Im not being biased about anything, people are genuinely excited about this season and what's happening at the club, and you try and piss on that at every opportunity with constant negativity. There's no agenda there from me. Even on the rare occasion you do post anything positive its still got some underlying negative swipe at the club.

Actually... I laugh a lot, I find humour in a lot of things, and, do try and find positivity where CCFC is concerned. The last two signings in particular have given a level if hope.

As a ref I as a talker. I used to play and understood frustrations. I got almost to the top, but it was clear to the powers that be that common sense shouldnt be applied to the Laws of Association football.

I gave up once, missed it, came back, nothing changed so I finally quit and havent been interested in returning ever since.

Where/who did you play for? We may have crossed paths at some point.

Good post by the OP.

We won't be battling relegation.

Whether we end up mid table or competing for the top six depends what strikers Morison brings in. A good striker on loan and we'll be looking good.

Not signing any strikers would be a disaster.

So what you’re saying is that if we are successful it’s nothing to do with the ownership and if fail it’s all down to the ownership ?

If you can’t see that’s just not logical or fair then I give up with you.

Whether we like the ownership or not matters little. They are all we’ve got until somebody else buys us by matching Tan’s valuation.

There aren’t many around who think wrong decisions have been made on the transfer front since January. Morison is doing extremely well to identify players and the club are also doing really well to secure them.

If we get a couple of strikers surely even you will have to acknowledge the regime have done their job ?

No hes saying if club spent 1m in transfer fees on each player we signed that means spent money on them something even he can't deny....... but if pay 1m signing on fee to the players we got in that means club spent nothing as every club does same? Not sure how that logic works but sure he knows ...

Ive said time and time again that if we secure two good strikers then ill give credit where its due.

In fairness however, SM says heres a player and all you'll have to pay a salary ( for which we have a small budget) Its not much for the Regime to agree to, so the accolades at present go to SM for, lets say, 'selling the dream'.

Lets hope that someone does come in and match Tans valuation, we can then be rid and we can all move on.

Ive never been rude or used bad language on this MB, but you guys make it difficult to hold my tongue.

Ive addressed some positivity around the team because there is some, its not life changing pisitivity, as there are still a LOT of unknown signings in there.

Any success this year will be in spite of the Regime not because of it. Regimes Dont make silk purses out of sows ears.

Forget about the 'signing on fees'and 'agents fees'. EVERY CLUB PAYS THOSE. This regime has spent NOTHING... again.

You say I am biased? Then look inwards at what you say. Ive posted a thread containing some positivity, and youve turned it to Your own agenda.

So what you’re saying is that if we are successful it’s nothing to do with the ownership and if fail it’s all down to the ownership ?

If you can’t see that’s just not logical or fair then I give up with you.

Whether we like the ownership or not matters little. They are all we’ve got until somebody else buys us by matching Tan’s valuation.

There aren’t many around who think wrong decisions have been made on the transfer front since January. Morison is doing extremely well to identify players and the club are also doing really well to secure them.

If we get a couple of strikers surely even you will have to acknowledge the regime have done their job ?

No hes saying if club spent 1m in transfer fees on each player we signed that means spent money on them something even he can't deny....... but if pay 1m signing on fee to the players we got in that means club spent nothing as every club does same? Not sure how that logic works but sure he knows ...

My logic is every club pays signing on fees and agents fees, so that simply puts us on an even keel with everyone else.

It is my opinion that our fees and salaries are lower than most ( nothing to back that up) therefore it is up to SM to work on getting players in. The board are happy, cos they just pay agents and signing on fees, which, they know, if they dodnt, we simply wouldnt be able to bring in a single player. Not that that would bother them as we can always dip into the U16's
