Indeed Bulliac.
Talking to Stuart Duffy yesterday he was of the opinion that this season was pretty much a foregone conclusion from the start given the playing resources we had. Many of our players simply weren't wanted by other clubs and we can see the reason for that in their performances.
We're at a level now where it will take some proper money to ensure we're not in another "holding pattern" season. Whether Chalmers is in it for real should be apparent before long. He's brought in some useful players but too late for them to do much good this season and some of them have been injured immediately.
I doubt we'll manage it but we need to keep the likes of Chisholm, Gibson, Sironen, Peltier, Smith, Moore (if he avoids chokey) and our better kids.
Add to that some half decent part timers including some tough, aggressive forwards in the Alex Rowe mould and I will be on board.
