We're past the half way point of the season now. Good time to reflect on the signings BBM has made and how they've done up to now.
Sanchez - Outstanding. A great find.
O'Connell - Unbelievable how he's been persuaded to join us. Great piece of business.
Norrington-Davies - Again, a great find and will go on to bigger and better things.
Pyke - Deserved a second chance after last season but unfortunately not good enough for league football.
Magloire - Useful back up. Seems clumsy on the football pitch but good cover.
Ryan - Signed on reputation. Bedded into the squad at a sensible pace and now reaping the rewards of his undoubted quality. Been outstanding recently.
Lynch - Seems solid. Good planning for next year without Sanchez.
So, so far so good. Cant argue with the recruitment and really good signs he can be trusted in the transfer market. Imagine if he had a budget to work with!!!
What's your opinions?

McShane - Outstanding when fit but rarely fit.

Agree with everything you've said only additional thoughts are:
Pyke - Maybe he would have shown a different side if he was given the opportunity to play as a more central striker.
Magloire - Think he could go on to be a very good player he's got pace and I think he's pretty good on the ball for a centre back. He just needs to strengthen up a bit and gain a bit more match experience. Seems a bit naive at times maybe playing at right back isn't as natural for him.
BBM to be fair has been pretty good so far with his signings. It's injuries that have been the problem. |  |

BBM's signings, where he has been allowed to make them, have been better than could have been hoped given the budget.
Missing out on a striker in the summer is probably the one area that BBM will rue as much as we do. Thankfully, that will be put right this window. |  |

Do you know that for fact or are you talking about the 18 year old we've already signed?
I'm not sure January is the best time to sign a striker unless it's someone we've been after for a while and the timing for a good deal is right. I don't think we should be panic buying. This team should be capable of staying up this season! | |

If you need a striker, any time is the right time to sign one.
You don't necessarily have to buy one either. | |

And yes, we absolutely do need one, along with some pace in wide areas! | |

Does that mean a decent loan striker? | | | |

When you think of the budget BBM apparently had to work with, and given the joke of the injury crisis we've suffered, any talk of wanting him out is absolutely ridiculous. Every signing apart from Pyke and Magloire (due to injury) are all brilliant players and contribute much to the team, even Lynch who is probably the best backup keeper we've had for a while. He's doing a brilliant job, and I hope we can push up the table now players are getting back to full fitness. |  | | |

BBM’s signings have been very good but, in all honesty, he needed more. He needed the summer to ensure a fresh start but the budget wouldn’t allow it.
Still, we’re not in the relegation zone and that’s after going through a horrendous spell of injuries, so that’s a reason to be optimistic. | |

I'd go as far as saying with the exception of Done and Pyke, every signing/ contract renewal BBM has made has been the right call. It's a real shame that we had the woeful injury record we've had as a team of:
Sanchez
McLaughlin McShane O'Connell Norrington- Davies
Dooley Ryan Camps Rathbone
Wilbraham Henderson
Is probably not far off top 6 standard, and you could argue in the right positions we could even afford a few injuries and keep a very strong team. I'd like to think that IF we stay up and use the wages of Andrew and Lillis etc wisely we won't be in this position this time next year. |  | | |

Maybe with the amount of players out of contract he might get a chance next season. Could getting Hill and Beech off the wage bill help with the budget for next season? |  | | |
