For me Main isn't the answer to the real problem its the defence including the keeper. We need an experienced Keeper a left back and a centre half the problem is everyone bar PD can see it.

It could be said that Dickov has done well to get performances like the Chesterfield game out of the team and not the other way round.
And if he doesn't feel there is a need, then he is seriously deluded

I don't expect him to slag off the players but it would be far easier to say he is looking at strengthening than deny there is no probem. In respect to money for loans it was stated at the meet the owners event and by PD on more than one occasion that there is.
STUPID Question I guess, but none the less I will ask as someone will know.What reasonably would be the amount of money needed for a loan player.is it 30% of his salary, 40%, 50, all of it, None of it?.Is there a "Lump sum" payable as a loan fee?( On to of % Salary )
I honestly feel that an answer to the Dickov problem is to dispense with Brian Horton as assistant coach (who is as useful as a chocolate teapot )Replace him with a younger more active coach who i am sure could combine with PD and help him in training and tactics (if PD could accept that )-Big Rob would not be the answer.
It's obvious Dickov has no funds available, he's stated in many interviews that he'd go cap in hand to the board if needs be.
