I would agree with a few posters on here that a few quality signings would make a difference, signings that should have been made in close season. Left back, centre back and now with the realisation of Chuks longevity as a professional footballer and Stockley's poor form, two quality forwards. I don't care if they are permanents or loans but they are much needed.
What about Cole Stockton? Last I heard he'd refused to sign a contract at Morecambe and his stats this season suggest he's just going through the motions until he's a free agent so they'll definitely want to move him on.
Given his Notts Forest connections I wonder if a certain Mr Taylor is a loan target?
If he ever pulls on a CAFC shirt then I wont be there to see him.
He effectively relegated us in 19/20. If he had seen out the season like 99% of other players did then I'm certain we would have stayed up.....and probably still in the Championship now.

I agree up to your last statement - neither RD nor TS would have kept us in the league for another 3 seasons
Depending on the January budget Luke Jephcott out of favour at Plymouth currently on loan at Swindon maybe worth a punt.
Hoping we can do better. He’s not really kicked on for some time now.
Not kicked on for some time. Will fit in nicely then. Like I say though depends on the budget but has scored at this level admittedly form then dropped but currently doing ok out on loan.
Loans are definitely a weird one. I have no idea why we didn’t get more through the door in the summer.
IMO we need a left back, an upgrade at centre back and two strikers. Plus cover for anyone who leaves.
If we’re moving away from formations that need wingers, that puts the likes of Kirk and DJ on the chopping block. Hopefully we can find destinations for MacGillivray and Forster-Caskey too.

Although could be another Stockton, and never really stood out against us last week.
10 goals in 22 appearances so far this season. Spent the previous two seasons in the Championship with Barnsley.

I would sign 2 strikers, a winger, a left back and a centre back.
I would also consider Henry as a first team player in the squad, replacing Morgan's role, and I would utilise more loans
