| Quote: mat "strange that theres no mention of this rumour anywhere on cas board. Thing to remember with sykes is he qualifies as home grown which is going to be increasingly important next couple of years until academy lads break through in numbers. reasonably happy with sykes as he covers a few positions to a decent standard and is pretty good in attack. Also gives us another kicking option. Really does need to improve defensively though.

I'd rather bring Crookes on. |

if crookes had had signnificant game time this year I'd agree. but as he hasnt we need to go into next year with two proven .whether thats nero/sykes, nero/dixon or nero/? remains to be seen. hopefully then crookes would kick on next year and be in a position to replace nero when his contract runs out. |

Good plan, but I think we definitely need more quality than Nero & Sykes, and as Sykes is the one OOC then he shouldn't be retained imo. |

i'd agree with that provided we brought someone better in. We dont want to be in position of going into next year with nero/crookes as first choice imo. |

I can think of several players who have been better signings than Menzies in terms of the impact made at their respective clubs:
Puletua
Buderus
Hodgson

Apart from a 100 year old Menzies, who are these top class signings you speak of? |

Unfortunately for you, the guy has a point. Apart from Menzies, which other top class players did we actually sign or did I miss it?!  |

Are we talking about Bradford, Yorkshire, or some other place I've got confused with?
