The 2 new strikers in Gomis and CMS are "play to feet" forwards, very similar to Hemmings and Dennis, and yet they have been playing high balls forward to them, so where's the difference?
The fundamental change they need to make is tactically, and unless the defenders and midfield change their current tactics and have confidence in possession, then it could easily be the same story with different personnel.
County fans seem to think they have signed enough quality to stay up... and their about to turn over Lincoln, FGR and ourselves.
I guess we shall see...
Much will depend on the mood inside the club, imo, as many a touted player seemed to fall from grace after only a few games. If Hardy selling-up has uplifted the mood then it'll be a tough game, but if it's left uncertainty over players futures or he's still as subtle as a rhino charging a Land Rover, then no amount of fresh faces will stop the rot.
If they haven't sorted things out internally then these 'dogs Balearics' players will be missing a dog!!
