Honestly, looking at it laid out like that and you'd have to say that's a good first 11. Not "pissing the league" good but you'd expect to be challenging near enough anyone. Only the LB position is an obvious weakness but it seems almost guaranteed to be a loanee.
It's the depth/competition and options off the bench that need work.
It's disgraceful, 3 different players from last season & a bunch of kids. The revolution isn't happening anytime soon.

Last season's team came within a gnats bollocks of the playoffs and would have made it if not for the awful slump at the end of Bowyer's reign. We don't need a revolution.

You've seen this I suppose? Can you point out how this fits with "3 different players from last season and a bunch of kids"?

17 of the senior players that played for us last season (exc. youth team) have left. Unfortunately the reality for most lower league clubs is that the reliance on short term contracts and loan signings means you need a “revolution” every summer. Thankfully most of the players we’ve signed this summer have been on multi-year deals so we might not need the same upheaval in summers to come.
Dobson put in a great interception a few minutes ago.
Got a feeling that he'll be a solid player for us this season
I'm really excited for the Clare/Dobson pivet in the middle (if it stays that way) - feels exactly the sort of change we needed in the middle of the park.
Another reason why we'll hopefully see less goals from range against us this coming season... Wasnt just a case of Amos being unable to stop them, but far too often we didnt get enough bodies in the way

Yes we were very close to the play offs, just as well that we had chuks to come on & rescue us with his 15 goals. We do need a squad & while we may well get 4 loans in at the end of the transfer window are you happy with a bench of kids for the first 4 games ? Who knows what loans we will get, 4 Matt Smiths maybe.

Just makes you look silly.

Puts in a lovely foul as I post that
Wonder where Gilby will fit in, when recovered.
Performances haven't been too bad this year but in recent times, friendly results have seen massive meltdowns on here
