A bit disingenuous there Mark !
It depends on exactly when last season you are talking about - we knew before the season started that Stone was out till at least Christmas. Bakke was at Villa and Wright at Southampton. Douglas came in after the season started and Miller only came to us in November
We still have Cisse on trial and Westlake to sign in next couple of days to add to this seasons list, plus the options of further loan players during the course of the season !

Midfielders available THIS season (As we speak, assuming injury free):
Stone, Bakke, Lewis, Derry, Richardson, Nicholls, Carole.
Now could you please explain how that is strengthening the SQUAD? Not the
starting XI, the SQUAD? Less cover (7 players as opposed to 10), what we
thought of some of those individuals is irrelevant, I'm saying at the
moment in the KEY area that we, mostly, accept cost us last season, we're
worse off cover wise than we were last season <<
