Shame, isn’t it.

Or as he calls him 'Jennings 4'

Not sickened but not overly impressed, either. There are better players out there!

The key question now is whether the club have the money and the manager has the nous, to add the quality in midfield, out wide and up front.

Aye...This is the 64.000 Dollar question...????

Continuity is a good thing - provided those named players are of sufficient quality to get us out of this league - some on that list are merely average.

To go up as Champions or Play Off winners would suggest that we need a team of individuals who are either best or second best in the league or that through sustained continuity the team blend surpasses player quality.

Looking at the other teams who made the play offs - they were all pretty much free from repeated disruption on and off the field. Solihull played a regular starting 11 and no management changes - likewise AFC Fylde, Harrogate and Salford kept it simple and pretty constant - back at the shrine of worship we had a managerial merry go round and player changes on a frequent basis - never known a season where even the fans could not really agree who was our best starting eleven.

Bottom line - we need quality not quantity - reduce the squad size but bring in some game changers for once and change part of the mindset to one where goals win football matches.

I agree with this imho he is over rated by a lot on here I accept he ain't the worst left back we could have but I also think we could da better.

He is like a box of chocolates you don't know what you're going to get game after game. He lacks pace going forward and getting back.

But as i said we could do worse.

Of course we could do better but thats only with a decent scouting network. Jennings is the safety first approach for a club who is afraid to take risks. He is an average conference full back just like carrington is. Our full backs are very defensive minded so don't expect many assists from there. So far nothing has changed still no creativity or goals in the squad. Obviously there is time but nothing to get excited about yet.
