And Yes, That Is The Crucial Bit!
We have to strive to get quality players in this Summer, as Roeder says, to go up and have a chance of staying up, you need players who are capable of getting promotion and then sustaining things once that has been achieved.
The current squad doesn't seem to have too many players in it who could adapt to playing in the Prem-I can think of perhaps two-Marshall and a fully fit Drury from "our" players, but who else?
Fozzy perhaps, likewise Russell and Crofty, but with a whole lot of if's, but's, and maybe's attached.
Hucks did quite well for us in the Prem season but if he had stayed, for him to do that again would have meant at least a 2 year contract this time around. So, if you're planning on getting a squad together for promotion and one that has a core of a Premiership squad, then, again, you need to move on a bit from the Hucks scenario.
