Inconsistency has been our biggest problem in recent seasons and for me this can be traced to our disastrous overseas recruitment of players.

In the last 6 seasons we have signed 36 players from outside the English League and yet only Moussi (average at best) has played regularly for more than a season.

Only Pinillos, Oliveria, Figueiredo and
Carvalho have offered improvement on other squad players with the jury out on Pele. Milosevic and Soudani.

Little wonder we cannot maintain a challenge when these players cannot hit the ground running?

It's clear most of these signings have been stop gap signings rather than managers first pick. So until this policy changes we will not move forward.

You can't just blame it on poor imports red it's not like many will be top notch as they are coming to the championship not the premier.
We've signed a lot of poor British players as well.
Biggest problem is signing players in general that are on the decline.
The odd one yes but not team full.
Not since we signed Britt and Antonio have we bought very wisely.

In the interest of balance which British based players in the squad have been as bad or worse as the 30 odd overseas under performers we have recycled?

RIE, You are so convinced about English players being superior, give us player by player of the 44 players we have how the English players are better.

Lolley and Grabban equally as frustrating, both carry the can for Saturdays loss.
