If you also factor in that we're currently losing our best young players for next to nothing doesn't it make sense to fill the squad with kids? - and if we're getting anyone in, spending what we have on more kids - and giving them a season to gain experience alongside the older donkeys we already have? I think I'd prefer to start the 20/21 season with a core of young talent that has been tried and tested and who would be far more likely to be loyal to BWFC than a bunch of crap mercenaries who will cost more money and probably be relegated anyway. We might get battered every week for one season but... * We get the sympathy vote from the stay away fans who might just get behind them * We get a reputation amongst young prospects as a club that is serious about developing young players and giving them an opportunity to play - thereby attracting better quality kids in the future * We come back stronger and build some sort of foundation/strategy to take the club forward on a lower budget * We sort the wheat from the chaff early doors instead of keeping the no-hopers on the books for years * We save money so when we do have to buy experienced players there's more of a chance of being able to afford a bit of quality * The senior players will love - and benefit from - the experience of helping to develop younger players Obviously I'd be happier with this approach if Connell, Turner, Politic etc were involved, but we have to start somewhere and I can't envisage a better time then now given that this season is pretty much a free hit.

I don't even know what they're talking about but Nixon has been shown to be clueless most of the time. I saw an amusing spoof Nixon account , " Reluctant thicko ", & one line was......"

When this is over Paul Appleton deserves huge credit from Bolton fans for saving our club in very difficult circumstances & despite best efforts to sabotage by some who should know better.

Burndens Bogs Posted August 1, 2019 Share Posted August 1, 2019 (edited) The same Paul Appleton who's getting paid very handsomely to complete this deal?
