Strange one this - I do like Sacko and think we were much better with him in
the team than without , yes his final ball was often a big disappointment but
his sheer pace and hard work did give us an outlet. I also think he can improve
the weaker parts of his game , decision making and scoring and therefore he is
a decent acquisition and I would have been happy enough if Monk had signed him
HOWEVER he has been signed by person or person unknown, and clearly Dave S's
comments and the nickname 'sack o shit' shows that some fans do have real
doubts about him, in which case any new manager may have the same concerns. Is
he decent - yes. Is he the best player out there for the price - I am far from
convinced and can easily see the new manager refusing to play him, so , as I
say, a strange oneDave

OK, your comment on doing this while managerless is a good one. Even if it is
the DoF's hand, he's only been around for a couple of days. perhaps he's been
informed by Clotet and Beattie that Hadi is one for the future.

It's very subjective of course, but I've seen enough of both over some time to
qualify for justified wrist slitting. To sign Sacko up though in the absence of
a manager is pure madness based on "potential" There'll be little enough money
for our (yet to be decided) new manager to throw around on new players without
squandering it on the likes of him. Is this our new director of football
trying to make a name for himself at the outset ? if so, it's not a good sign
of things to come.

I think Doukara is a decent squad player for the championship, whereas Sakho
has real ability, but has yet to show he can deliver it. Maybe with decent
coaching he will make the grade. OK it's not an inspiring Strachan kind of
signing, but not a reason for sliting your wrists (yet)

Looks like Sacko has been signed up. I hoped the opposite would happen. He's
nowhere near the mark. Is this a wise move in the absence of a manager who may
(understandably) have no plans for such a mediocre player?
Deals like this assist in sealing our case for keeping out of the top flight.
On the other side of the coin - if everyone's happy with that, then no harm
done. After all, second tier football's not so bad. Sacko must be "Over the
moon" and mildly stunned at the gross stupidity of the club for signing him.
Now he can continue to link up with (never fails to
underperform) Doukara, who I feel the same way about. Looking good!
Dave
