Quote: NickyKiss "This thread highlights the issue you face if you try to minimise losses by cutting back on the cost of your playing squad. You will lose numbers through the gates. It feels a bit like Lenagan thinks he’s run out of options, especially with the delays in full crowds being let back in. I’ll wait and see where we end up squad wise for next season but the signs are worrying at the moment.'"
It's also an issue of signing too many players to one year deals.
If you have to keep dipping into the transfer market for key players, then you're eventually going to come unstuck. I don't know any successful side that has run with some many short term deals - especially when you add the coach in there too.
