I didn't say his LOAN signings weren't good, I said his buys. The Loan market has seen a few decent players come in under KB, I agree entirely about Flo and Thompson. But neither manager can exactly hold their head up when it comes to paying for a permy player: Creaney, Kandol, Gregan immediately spring to mind. Agreed as well that Marques is as good a new signing under the circumstances. As for keepers, Blackwell was a keeper so you'd expect him to be able to spot a good one!
