And it's difficult to criticise getting the likes of Azeez & Scarlett through the door even if they did not work out too well, as often happens with youngsters.
This year's were less impressive, though I see Griffiths has just won Young Player of the Year at West Brom.
Bazunu - total waste of wages. Blocked the development of our own player. Idiotic signing.
Carter - IMO the best loan Danny signed. Very good player.
Hirst - We waited all season for him to start scoring goals. He has 4 good weeks right at the end of the season and thinks he's ready for the champ. Waste of wages.
Romeo - Average L1 player on champ wages. Waste of money.
Every player left a hole in the squad that needed filling. You can't plan for a promotion campaign when you have all these players leaving every season.
The persistent playing of Hirst cost us the playoffs. We went in to 20 odd games knowing we weren’t going to score.
Complete bollocks ... Hirst only started two league games before he scored his first league goal in his third game.
Yes, he was a loan that took half a season to come good, but to say we went 20 games knwowing we were weren't going to score because of him is complete and utter nonsense. Why do you make up this shit ?
