As reported by Rob Phillips from BBC Wales, keates is going to meet with the board to discuss freshening the squad up.

Where does he need to start? who can we realistically bring in - free transfers and loans?!

is Alex Penny where is starts?

Right-back, midfield and striker are the biggest problems. There are plenty of others though.

If Carrington is near fitness he sorts the RB problem IMO.

As for the other two positions God only knows.

He needs to weed out the bad apples. For me that is just as important as who is coming in, he needs people buying into what he is doing.

Ask the board to feck off and put the club up for sale asap

I'm surprised we haven't had the , it's not his team , thing going around yet , although it will come at the end of the season of course . Who knows who he can bring in in the middle of a season then .

Some bloke in Spoons reckons Andy Cook is nailed on.

That must have taken some original thinking.

Hooper coming back will give us much more up front. Would hold off signing another striker for now. Unless he's fallen out with DK or is crocked of course.

Right back and midfield are priority. Two CM's need to come in, send Barton out on loan and bench Summerfield. Transfer list Akil Wright and Barnum-Bobb. Its cruel playing these two when they are so far out of their depth. I'd transfer list Rutherford too. Its all very well him scurrying around the pitch but he has zero impact attacking wise and is no where near good enough.

Rumour is the budget has been spent so I guess the Ward money will now be eaten into to try and save us from relegation.
