Guest Ron Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 And the general consensus was that they were playing because we had nothing to play for? The experience we've got is (was) mostly crap, we had noone who would even try to play left wing & Alex Russel is the Xabi Alonso of League 1. What is the matter with that?

A lot of the younger players are going to be in and out of the team as they gain experience in the coming seasons and you need an experienced backbone - that means 4-6 outfield players who are experienced at this level (or higher) and can act as mentors - you don't win anything with kids !

How many of the "hit the ground running" are going to be playing regularly next season?In my view, Tins has/will rip the team apart instead of the slight adjustment needed. Still, SL seems happy to back him(not much choice after ba##sing up the initial decision) so we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucksred Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 don't quite understand, why in a promotion seeking team (Tins ideas), we have brought two (Possibly three) players from teams who were either relegated or non entities in the run out to the season. shouldnt we be getting Championship experienced players? Especially as we'll have to bin em, should we get promoted......Stewart, although not convinced about, I can understand, but Russell?? Smith???......

billyboy Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 Oh Jesus - will you never raise your horizon?Successful team = bigger squad to overcome the rough times in a season - typical bristolian corner shop attitude - that's exactly why we are in this. Time to get real don't you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Skin Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 I like what Russell has to say and comments from Torquay fans seem postive about his ability. Our squad is light on experience, so old heads to help the youngs ones grow seems the right thing for me. Glad to see this was Tinnion's pitch to Russell - we have talent young players but they need nurturing. Man, this pre-season optimism is a killer!!!!
