iam told from a reliable source that squad morale is at its highest it has been in ages,due to ian black being dropped to under 19,s the majoirty of the squad think hes a jumped up little **** who cant keep him mouth or temper under control,and none of them are backing him up,hnece the reason why hes still in under 19,s,and hes 99.95 away at the end of season due to it

also if juanjo comes back in squad morale will be even higher

So what snippetts of info have you been able to glean today from Mrs Mystery woman?

Hopefully something that might have a bearing on squad morale...

(I added that last bit to keep CaleyD happy.!)

Mrs Mystery woman?

who,s she? havent seen her mentioned in this thread b4??

Sorry... I meant Mr Mystery Man....

And the next five games, or is it going to be four, should be all about team building. Using youngsters. Chopping and changing. Seeing who fits where. That way come the window we'll know where the shortfalls are and what we need to fill them.

Completely agree, Alex, changing things around a bit is a good idea AND - in the spirit of staying on topic for CaleyD!! - might do wonders for team morale and ours if it works out.  It's certainly something I'd like to see Brew try out. 

It'll be good to see if Brewster will put out youngsters because we are not playing for anything!!

Afraid to say the answer to getting back team morale could lie in selling marius in the summer.  He has apparently caused a lot of controversy in the dressing room, although most of it i'm sure is paper-talk, while contributing only 9 goals this season.

As much as i love niculae, he should probably go, freeing up some wages and keeping our longest-serving players happy and playing well.  Also, with Juanjo waiting in the wings who needs a romanian international? :023:

Brewsters job should be on the line - if he plays them then he survives !!

Ach, behave yirsel !!  No he cannot play, he might get hurted and I cannot allow that! .... maybe some of his team mates would go through him after all that's been going on, so best keep him in a suit on the sidelines eh!!  :021:
