Moderators Casino Posted August 2 Moderators Share Posted August 2 27 minutes ago, Whitesince63 said: Main problem for me is that none of those we’ve signed so far seem as good as what we already have and from the admittedly very little I’ve seen of him, the Hungarian included. I’m just not sure where they’ll play anyway and who they’ll replace. So far Southwood doesn’t look close to Baxter and Lolos looks average at best. Unless things change very quickly now I see us starting the season with much the same side as we finished it. dont fucking compare em with regular first teamers then compare em with the players just behind the first team the loss of baxter was massive, the drop off from charles to the alternative, similarly disruptive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially when that very little equates to a bit of a run out in pre season and a collection of clips on a YouTube reel. We won't know anything till a few games in. Then we will know if they've been an upgrade or not. No, no, no you're wrong, they're shit, they're fucking shit, fucking shit. I just know.

However, if the quality of the opposition has improved on last season as it theoretically might be, a lot of fans including me would like to see better players starting and some of last year's starters in the back up role.

Aye, I'm far from a Happy Clapper but FFS, give them a chance until they've had time to show what they can (or can't) do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masi 51 Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 (edited) My limited view on new signings Southwood doubt we could get a reserve keeper as good Firino Think long term this lad can take over from Santos Arfield Come off the bench to get us a winner ....Knows his role here Lolas Will play in the cup games limited league time Schon........Not a scooby apart from what i have seen on you tube, but he is no lwb Overall ok so far but we need 2 players who will go straight in the first team.......We all have our views why if we think a player is not up to it do you get slaughtered here. This IS the place to do it not when we kick the season off, hope Schon proves me wrong Edited August 2 by masi 51 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think a single poster has said they "know" - a few have said they "think" or "suspect" but that is completely different from what you are implying. Those that haven't seen them play (I have in this case, but not recently) get their opinions from folk who have seen them play including their fans who watch them every week and the reports they read about them. What is fucking weird is folk coming on here and trying to make out that if someone has an opinion on a forum that is specifically designed for folk to express their opinions, it's somehow weird - you're confusing a discussion forum with a fact-based news thread - which this isn't.

Wanderlust Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 I'm already thinking about who's next in and hopefully it's being sorted as I write. Like the idea of a bit of pace and skill down both sides and there are alternatives if Killie don't take the hint. Someone reminded me that we were in for Femi Azeez last year - he did OK last season (scored 9), he's 23 and he's on a one year contract until next May. Maybe that's worth revisiting? Maybe not - I'm not sure what Evatt's planning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderlust Posted August 2 Share Posted August 2 In his interview for the club site, Schon mentions that he has come to Bolton to get his international career back on track - which is ironic as last year Baccus' Australian national coach said that his international career was under threat if he signed for Bolton. Even more ironic that Baccus has now become Mansfield's marquee signing. Wondering if the Aussie coach is from Wigan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
