Hambud Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 He signed 2 players from the v9 academy. Pre season, we were being told that Stubbs needed to sign 20 million new players. Taking 2 from v9 isn't really a lot! JR signed guys like Stewart, Kirkpatrick & Tod from the part time lower divisions as squad fillers. Nobody had a meltdown about that!Plenty had meltdowns. Does nobody remember the bile after getting pumped off Morton in the middle of August? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd imagine it's bullshit though. Funnily enough, I heard a not dis-similar story about Stubbs and his signings from Vardy's academy, Stubbs picking up kick backs as he was part of the academy (so i'm led to believe).

Am I on something - yeah the kettle which places you firmly on the pot! PS - I mentioned substitutions in my explanation of match dynamics, it only took you 4/5 posts to catch up and make a bigger arse of yourself! So when all else fails go for abuse... I am happy for others to read through our separate accounts and make up their own minds... but you clearly don't understand the word contradiction.. I might in your mind have made an assumption but I was not contradictory... PS I didn't need to look it up but I am impressed that you had heard of it - now you know how to spell it...

In reality, JR left Stubbs with 1 fit defender from last season's side - Jack Baird. And he wasn't even first choice! Stubbs has been left o completely rebuild the defence. In addition, we also lost our best player by a mile, Lewis Morgan. Without him, we had a mid table Championship squad. We also managed to win the league despite our main striker only scoring 11 goals. No defence, no best player and no striker capable to scoring goals in the Premiership. Its more or less had to be a complete rebuild job that Stubbs has been left with. Problem is though, that most of the guys that Stubbs has signed just aren't up to it..... Stubbs has signed 10 players so far and might get to sign a few more this week. Stubbs inherited 16 players when he came in and of that group 9 have either been sold or told to find a new club if they want to play regularly... that's not a bad hit ratio for dismantling a squad. We'll no doubt be going into October hoping this year's version of Andy Webster gets up to speed after signing in September as a player without a club. Eckersley, MacKenzie, Baird and Paul McGinn all went out to La Manga and were fit for the first week on pre-season. Heaton and McGinn have now joined Eckersley and MacKenzie on the list of defenders injured in training. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
