Some people never learn. These two are 5’9”. Adding two more of Ken Dodd’s mates to our already Lilliputian squad is not going to get us anywhere. I do fear that Ricketts is the wrong man for our level.

SDR signs Lionel Messi but Foxy declares “He’s far too small for this league” wisdom.

Don't think you've ever felt anything else about anyone. I could imagine you slagging off Garry Bennett for only scoring 43 goals in one season. Foxy, your going to be wrong about Ricketts, we are very lucky to have him. What you need to do is support the club instead of knocking every decision made.

Would be impressive signings.

One 18 and the other 19? Three goals and a handful of senior appearances between them?

That would signal desperation to me.

Ryan Giles may well have played himself into the Premiershiip. Freddie Hinds however would be good.

You consider 5'9" to be too small. I think ability counts for more than height.

If you are going to comment on me, keep a record of everything I post because you would be surprised at how much positivity there is , especially on players. Otherwise don’t comment on me because you will be wrong. - fake Foxy news .

Ryan Giles scored 2 and assisted 7 in his 9 game loan spell last season but he's obviously too small/young/in-experienced blah, blah, blah...

That would depend on whether they can cope with being physically bullied, and getting limited protection from the officials.

Just to change the thread into positives..

Who would you like to see us sign Foxy? 2 that you think would make us contenders?
