Which player coming in this week would turn your pessimism around? Serious names and not Messi

[robbiez666]

At this stage, any safe, reliable Championship level centre back. Doesn't need to be Hughes /Tanganga level. I'd take a Michal Helik / Marc McGuiness / Lewis Gibson type

Thought about Helik before. Oxford might want a decent fee though. I do think one of our CBs needs to be very dependable and experienced. I don't think it will happen though.

 

[robbiez666]

I've liked the look of Ethan Pye. Left sided CB at Stockport. only 6ft but 21 and highly rated. A few other Championship clubs have been sniffing and I think they're after £3 million. bring in an experienced bigger CB on loan as well. Worral, maybe. And then look at bringing a talented teen CB in (assuming Robbo is going).

Would think we have 6 or 7 irons in the fire and Bettis is playing poker regards who blinks first.

Therefore wouldn’t surprise me if no one comes in this week.
He’ll leave it to the last few days of the window, then I’d guess at least 3, maybe 4 players will come in.

The problem is when you leave it really late there’s an element of luck, we might be 90% sure of certain players coming in but Bettis has been told we need to wait until the other clubs have replacements.

The problem is if the other club doesn’t get their replacement then our gentleman’s agreement falls through too.

Alvin Stardust

Despite the fact that he's dead I could definitely go for that. Mr Rock and fucking Roll himself and not only that, The Green Cross Code man to boot. Be smart, be safe

Coo, coo, I just want you, I really love the things that you do, come on and love a me too I want to be your Coo Ca Choo

Sweet cheatin' Rita was a classic as well.

Someone must have a name to cheer me and others up if they signed.

I'll tell you what mate, I hadn't really thought of it that way but you're so right. If we're not going to spend on anyone decent, let's just go for names to cheer us up.

Billy Bollockchops
Marvin Minge
Barry Beef-Curtains

The problem when u leave it late is you are still stuck with the same shit defence for the next 3 league games !!!

Now that's what I'm talking about

 

[Maurice Maurice]

I've been watching this lad since he came to play for Seattle Sounders in 2017. Absolutely love him. He'll run through brick walls for you, do stuff that defenders don't do anymore and watching him play you can tell he loves the game.

He man marked Mo Salah in the African Cup a couple of years back and Salah never got a sniff. He'd be a Lane legend if he played for us, cracking player. Tolo Nouhou, even his name is great.

Mepham might be available at Bournemouth, him and Hughes would surely settle us down, the others would be a bonus

It's funny how we'd now be so grateful for Mepham - W*lder would have probably signed him straightaway, along with Dunne, and we'd now be stable rather than all over the place

Stable maybe but boring to watch for 80% of the match.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

I am not highly pessimistic we just need a defense

I never found promotion to the premier league boring under him
