No signings

[Snowflake]

Because we’re currently playing a formation which includes a left winger

It looks to as if it includes a left sided midfielder. There is a big difference.
It is some years since Simpson and then Reece performed the role of which you speak.

 

[Nick Jansky]

They weren't expecting £10 million rising to £15 million potentially for Osula either.
Slimane, Bogle, Trusty and Osula more than balances the books

Are you basing this on having seen the books?

 

[JJBlade]

Are you basing this on having seen the books?

No, but it does.
A club that operates on a cheaply, cheaply basis getting potentially £25 million + back in for the heap of shit that they bought earlier isn't bad.

 

[Nick Jansky]

No, but it does.

Ah, so you’re guessing. Ok.

 

[moody1889]

Option B
Until we get to the Prem, then stink the place out and decide that option A is better, then go for Option B again, and then when we get to the Prem stink the place out and go for option A again.

And still somehow manage to lose millions

I don't know why the prince didn't sell up straight away after we finished top half of the Premier league.

That was the time to sell up I don't know why he stayed when he knew he couldn't fund us properly.

 

[JJBlade]

Ah, so you’re guessing. Ok.

No

 

[Pedro Verde]

With regard to the striker problem we have, the only one we were solidly linked to was Cannon the fee rumoured to be between £5m to £7m is a lot for a striker nobody had even heard of before we and a few other clubs were linked with him. I personally think we may have dodged a bullet with him / didnt really want him

 

[Nick Jansky]

No

Sorry, if you haven’t either seen the books or had the position explained to you by someone who has you’re guessing. Which is fine, this is the part of the forum for rumours, but that’s what you’re doing.

No, I haven't seen the books, and no I'm not guessing. Those four players have brought in around £25 million.
We could of course sell the rest and do a proper job of balancing the books and showing a positive as that seems to be the only thing the club thinks about

I have eleven mates in the boozer who'd be glad to play for beer money.

just cant believe were not bringing another striker in were in big trouble if we get a couple of injuries unforgivable imo letting 3 strikers go and only bringing 1 in

It's odd and was Wilder banking on keeping one of McBurnie, Jebbo or Osula?

 

[Upton_Blade]

So you are telling me now our strike force is not worse than last season given we have lost McBurnie Jebbo and Osula and we haven't replaced any of them.

Campbell is not a Centre Forward and is not the answer up front his stats say it all.

But if you think we are better off than last season you are wrong.

Must be really draining being as negative as you are all the time

 

[paidsy]

A couple of injuries and we could be in a world of trouble.

 

[71Blade]

It's going to be a loan when the loan window opens

 

[Yellarbellyblade]

It's going to be a loan when the loan window opens

Isn’t the loan window the same now?

 

[bladesmanluke]

It's going to be a loan when the loan window opens

There hasn't been a loan window for about 10 years

 

[Nah den]

So you think he meant zero would be ok?

No arguing with that logic

I will praise the club when they have done well but I will also be critical when I see things that aren't right.

We have made some really good signings but they have let themselves down by not strengthening in key areas.

There is no excuse we have had longer than anyone else.

 

[The Crab]

Allegedly getting 6 million for him, that's 5 million to much. We couldn't possibly turn that offer down. GLTTL but he was never good enough for us, opens up the door for one of the youngsters to push for the first team.

Six million will do. He’ll look world class up there but down here he’s a prem team player as much as I am

Mcburnie was hardly ever match fit, Jebbo was on sick leave for most of last season and Osula was hardly setting the world alight either

We havent sold or released our best players in this window yet! All our promotion rivals have.

 

[TJ blade]

Slimane is only a loan.

Fucking hope not!

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Is he being crafty with his wording? 'No signings today' and ' players already at the club'
Does this mean we've already signed some. But not announced?

Serious question. Did you expect us to complete the rebuild we needed in 1 window?

Mebbe, time will tell.

Well said and absolutely correct what you've said

Not surprised with the tactics we have seen from Wilder since he came back.

With the money we have received there is no excuse not to strengthen our striking options.

You know we haven’t lost a league game don’t you? Just thought I would remind you
