European football, a big lump sum payment, good chance of domestic medals, playing for a manager who helped develop his career - but aye you're right enough it's just the same as signing an out of contract player on a big wage for a few months to a team that has a lot of pressure on it to perform... I really don't think you're living in the real world, there's not much point labouring the same point over and over again, we aren't Celtic, we don't have their money at the moment, we don't have European football to entice players, we're not going to win the league, we're out of one cup - we're not a great prospect to out of contract players looking for big money or big exposure for half a season, take your head out the sand and see where we are as a club ffs Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmcf 34,337 Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 Don't know how to feel about this . Cant say I've been overwhelmed by his signings , but tbh , when you've not got much of a a budget , you're going to end up with basement standard signings and a very ordinary team . Yes he could have done better , but the board have to take a lot of responsibility for the standard of team we are watching every week . Oh , and so does MW . I still think the players he has at his disposal should be doing better against the Hamiltons , Ross Co's , Partick Thistles etc in this league .

I know our wage bill is bigger than all the other clubs, and the recruitment has been patchy at best! but the spine of the team needs sorted out and has done since before warburton took over, I think the board should have at least given some money for certain areas of the team - how many midfielders have we signed since warburton came in?! Centre half has been the weakest area of the team and costing us games/points since the start, never been addressed, defensive mid, never been addressed, although barton should been that one.. and a fucking goal scorer, never even considered imo, most likely becuase that would cost money. If we aren't going to see real investment in the squad for the short term then we're going to be scraping around with the average teams in the league until some quality comes through the ranks Warburton can't even get the very basics right, some of which you touch on, some people knew before he was handed his new deal but i fear it only became apparent to the board after they stupidly gave him a new contract. Had they not done that i suspect he would already be away. The first thing Walter Smith done when he took over from PLG was sign 3 centre backs and a tough tackling midfielder. Identified the teams weakness and fixed it immediately. The first thing Warburton done in the summer when building for the Premiership was sign loads of players we didn't need. He also spunked £500k on a winger he doesn't play and almost £2m on a striker who doesn't score goals or suit the system we play. By all accounts he also incredibly paid a fee for Dodoo and Rob Kiernan. The deficiencies in our team last season were obvious to everyone except the men that matter. His recruitment policy has been appalling, with and without money. With and without his esteemed pal and super scout Frank McParland. I don't believe goalscorers were out of our reach either, i just think he didn't think he needed one. Prso, Novo, Boyd, Larsson, Griffiths, A Rooney, more recently Stokes, Boyce, Moult are all proof goalscorers can be found if you look hard enough, and at affordable prices.
