Anyway, even if you are right, you are now admitting that we've had almost two months already to complete transfers which, bizarrely, could not be confirmed until last Saturday - so, having been beaten to the signature of Hayes and McKay, we're now in the position where we're looking at a trialist who barely kicked a ball last season . I can understand why McAdder suggested we were getting a bit desperate and he certainly didn't deserve to be called a berk.
My point was we have 2 months left to sign players and we aren't running out of time in the slightest.

Please, let's not even go there, Richards is a very very average full back at this level, asking him to become some kind of midfield maestro is beyond his capabilities

I'm not saying he'll be Whittingham reincarnate but can he be that much worse than Halford?
