After the latest post of people moaning about the Exeter game and squad I decided to write this.....
So lets for a minute take stock of where we are as an OVERALL CLUB.
Yes everyone was disappointed with the Exeter result but for gods sake people, we have 6 points after 3 games, far more than I ever expected.
Now that Macclesfield have gone we are the smallest club with the smallest fanbase in the league. Just bear that in mind when people start questioning the result in every way.
As for the attendances nothing I can personally do about it apart from say what I already have a million times....... For the casual fan, our walk on prices are far too expensive. Yes in terms of League 2 we are at the cheaper end, BUT just look at our facilities in comparison to the others........
As per every League 2 season, the target is 40 points, THEN we can start talking about Mid-Table or another crazy playoff push. We have by far the youngest squad in the League, assembled on a shoe string budget and personally I believe Cooky & Leam have done a fantastic job of recruitment this summer. The players look fitter than ever, and ALL are dying to play. Lee Molyneux for instance on Twitter has been saying "Im dying to get on the pitch". You dont hear things like that if the management team are doing a bad job.
The introduction of the Youth team players when needed is also proving fruitful with Carver & Hopper being sent out on loan, which will hopefully work for our benefit in the long run, its seems to be working in Marcus's case anyway!
As for the Boco signing, not something I would personally do, but is it our right to judge a player before we have seen him pull on a red shirt again?? Take Will Hatfield for example, looked average at best when we had him on loan last year, and look at him now. One of our best midfielders.
