Kelman has no pedigree in anything but League 1. Same with Apter and Olaofe. Then there are our Academy players such as TC and Anderson.
As you say......the proof of the pudding is in the eating. I do hope I am eating my words along with a slice of humble pie in 2 years time...but I could also be right.As he says he hopes not but going on our past record with players it could easily happen
My issue isn't necessarily with his comments, more the know it all negativity. We've had an unbelievable window, arguably as good as it could have been, but he and a few others will still find a reason to be fucking negative, and deliver it all in a 'I know more than you' tone that really fucks me off.
He's a boring know it all who consistently brings negativity to a conversation and has hilariously been proved wrong on many occasions, sometimes almost instantly (Leaburn scoring twice immediately after he announced 'he's poor, won't score again this year' or something along those lines).
His takes are shite, he's a boring negative melt and I'm going to continue to call him out for it. Even if I'm called Twatish.
Wouldn't have it any other way mind

There will be some players that we had before or that we’ve signed that won’t make the step up successfully. The good thing is we’ve got a squad now where we don’t need everyone to make the step up, just need enough of them to do it8

Seemingly nothing on Fukuda - he gave an interview with Japanese media ahead of their next game on the 6th.

The owners have done their job in opening the purse strings. It now comes down to Jones and the recruitment team to see how well they did in talent evaluation. There is always going to be uncertainties when recruiting in a promotion year. Jones has made some clear mistakes in recruiting the last couple years and also have made some shrewd signings. You would figure that the same will be said about this years incoming class but let’s hope the sum of the positives outweigh the negatives. My biggest concern is at the forward position. Historically there are a lot of examples of strikers scoring in League one and then struggling in the championship. It seems the step up at that position is higher than other positions so I have some questions on Kelman and Tanto.4

Based on the pre-season friendlies, I do think that we know have a team that can compete in the Championship and we’ve now completely removed the shackles from that horrible third division. However, it might take some time for the players to gel together and zoom up the league table. Get ready for another promotion to the Premier!

The issue is that even with all that we're in a league with teams who have got (former) Premier league players and Premier league money available. We've spent enough money that other teams fans are genuinely surprised, yet both of the teams that came up with us have spent EVEN MORE.
I'm positive about our chances but a "good" season for me is safety with a month or two to go.6 - Sponsored links:

Brendan Wiredu … abused by his own fans at home park on Saturday , Plymouth had to release a statement condemning the behaviour towards Brendon during the game ( his debut )

He might well be naturally more pessimistic than most, sometimes he is proven to be right, most of the time it's not, but I don't remember seeing him come on here to call out another poster in the tone that you have.
He has said this has been a great window, he naturally wants us to do well, but he also naturally leans towards the side of caution and pessimism at times, and I think that is okay too. It brings balance and actual debate to the forum without being offensive.
If his posts and the tone he uses 'really fucks you off', it's not difficult to just scroll passed them and don't read it. I do it with loads of posts most of the time, it's not worth getting hung up about it.37 -

I'm positive about our chances but a "good" season for me is safety with a month or two to go.It’s a gamble but so would spending big wages on older players who might be past their peak and lost some of the energy and/or hunger they previously had.
We were never going to sign proven players who were regulars last season for Championship clubs (aside from those relegated), they would be well out of our price range. What we’ve done should mean we compete and have a chance of staying up as a bare minimum, but if enough settle well and make the step up, we could finish higher.5 -
