| I get the feeling and this was backed up IMO by Richie Mathers interview that we are going all out to blow the budget on a couple of absolute quality players and go with a smaller squad. Risky if you get injuries, fantastic if you don't.

| What about us 2000 potential season ticket holders agreeing to pay an extra £1 a week to help secure Tim Smiths services.

My thought's exactly, especially if Webbo see's him as his main priority.

| Indeed. I liked Mathers most of the time, but if we have to go with a cheaper option to be able to afford Smith, I'm all for it.

| Would anyone like to see Webster take a chance on a younger player? Not so much Max Jowitt but someone like Harry Siejka? I liked Harry... I just think a lot more was expected from him but coming back from a long term injury I just don't think he had the confidence. I know all the comments back are going to be slating my view but what are other peoples opinions? What young gun would you like Webster to take a chance on?

So you want to take a chance on younger players, just not our own ? Very strange.

Agreed and this is where the relative strength of your academy set up comes into play.
Although we have not had a great academy set up recently we do odly have a number of players on the cusp who may not be ready for regular first team but could fill in gaps if injury hits. Sometimes its quality over quantity svn in the Academy. I've listed below the players who could well fill the gaps.
Assumming we keep them,
Wallshaw
Trout
Contracted
Anakin (who really is first team ready)
Shulver
Jowitt
Crowther
The last three are untried but are at the right age to start and are not exactly kids. When you recall players like Newlove and Edwards and many more made debut at 17 and the game hasn't changed that much.
I'd deffo go for quality over quantity, it's not like you can't make mid season loans etc.
