Seems he can’t complete a sentence without saying flexible or adaptable…am
I being over cynical thinking this may mean a lot of square pegs in not exactly square holes and relatively limited squad depth ?

Doesn't really matter what he says, you'll find something to criticise him for.

And hope we get lucky as fuck with referees n injuries and get the lowest ranked teams in the FA Cup to beat this 6 months probation period.

More broadly usual football managers waffle, about 90% of them will be spouting the same stuff that they think fans want to hear.
Not many straight-talkers about in the mould of Brian Clough nowadays.

Probably means we won’t be able to field 11 players on August the 9th & some will have to fill two positions.

Start listening to managers after they’ve been here three months, because before before that they’re firing blanks and bullshit.

best to just use your eyes and brain to work things out ourselves than believe manager speak.

Agreed, can't get excited about anything that comes out of managers or players mouths, especially in the close season.

I also noticed him using the word flexible a lot. My assessment from Raj. Simon you have a shoestring budget and it’s a case of making do when and if we do which is very likely with a small squad. I’m not expecting much but you never know. Good luck to the manager no matter what. He can only do his best either way what he’s got which isn’t much imo .
