I've seen Moyes' pressers and he isn't saying anything that I wasn't expecting him to be saying at this stage. I know the squad numbers. I know that the recruitment team know them too (as well as knowing everything else, like what we have to spend and PSR numbers etc.) so I'll just leave it to them to get on with it and see where we are on September 2nd - but even then I won't be overly concerned, as both Moyes and the CEO have said that it will take 2 summer transfer windows to get the squad closer to where they want it to be, and I have confidence that they will be doing everything they can to improve us within those restrictions mentioned above.
I apologise that the CFO post wasn't of any interest to you - please feel free to let others know when they post anything not to your liking and I'm sure we'll do our best to turn TPF into your own little Coltopia

he is clearly concerned
We just had to play Tyler Onyango ffsake who is off to a league 1 club asap
we are down on quality and bodies, we have about 16 premiership level player
but lets worry about some CFO who no one has heard of and no one knows what he did, and be condescending to those concerned that the squad is lacking

...I'm not overly concerned about the state of the squad (and I don't think Moyes is overly so either).
If it's still this thin by September 2nd then we might both be, but I don't think it will be and I don't really see any sense in worrying until then.
Obviously some new signings would be very welcome (and even more so before the Leeds game) but I'm not expecting us to pull up any trees this season - I'd hope we can stay clear of any real relegation concerns while we all settle into our new surroundings and continue to build the squad. Anything more than that will be a bonus...

"waffling on about some CFO who has left rather than being concerned about the actual squad which is decimated and clearly has the manager concerned"
