We have 10 games before January even opens ffs. That's close to 40% of the season.

If we are sitting dead last with no wins by the time January comes (which if I am brutally honest is not even that unlikely), we're not just gonna be saved be a couple of sugar hit signings. Time to stop being ridiculous just hoping things that fortuitously happened for us in the past will happen again. 

I mean, sure, have concerns about squad depth and quality, but there is no need for the doom and gloom. It's a "watch the spend" kind of season. Along with a host of other clubs we haven't splashed big time on marquee players or big name locals. Since the CCM success last season the club seem to have moved away from chasing the big spending model and more onto a development of youth. That takes time and this could be the first of many "low budget" seasons while we work towards buidling and developing youth.
