Thanks for those sensible comments, Jag.
Now you mention it, the Nix have a reputation for signing other people's garbage and they end up shining. Smeltz and Iffy are the classic examples of this, and Nick Ward has also done much better than with the Tards.
But I don't remember - was it also the case last season that we couldn't hold on to any players who were off contract and we actually wanted? If it was the case, then I certainly am overreacting and should start back on the Flinstones Chewable Morphine, but I didn't think it was. The only one I can remember losing was McKain (how did he end up doing in Saudi, anyway?)
And I really HOPE that the club are actively targeting good new players. Ricki signed Toto last year, so you'll forgive me if I remain nervous.Doloras2011-02-23 13:39:02
