I don’t care that the leaks have stopped, they weren’t particularly prevalent to begin with.
I care that in a summer of vital importance under new owners, new directors and a manager in his first summer transfer window - on the eve of kicking off in our shiny new stadium - we are stuck in the same tropes that have paralysed this club for as long as I can remember.
Not prioritising our areas of weakness, not having the agility to move on to other targets in a timely fashion leading to long drawn out sagas, not understanding the importance of pre-season, being completely undercooked in August… how many seasons have we now all said the things?
Fans are allowed to be frustrated that a promised new era is currently shaping up to be more of a false dawn.
