I'm not dressing it up. I agree with you.Ultimately the transfer window last summer was poor one for the club, the targets / signings should have been better, and its frustrating given the money TB spent and for that matter the 3 season tickets and countless pies i cough up for. I trust and hope...

Like it or not. The club wanted these players . Just because they had poor seasons doesn't mean the club didn't want em. David Burke / Sami paid for that with their jobs. (They went in for Holla after the deal with Clayton fell through). Perhaps the issue is that they should have bought...

Baldock, O Grady and Stockdale weren't panic signings, all were #1 targets and we made them all in August. Would they have had better seasons for us if we'd managed to sign them in May, July or June. I doubt it.

Yes you think we've a weaker squad than before and we've sold all our good players and signings slipped through our hands. Fair enough . But i thought we were talking about the difference (i think marginal - you might think bigger) to a teams performance over a season if/when you actually...

Cause or correlation :)

I'm interested in your tips to take over from the DULLARD when it all goes wrong by about October Ernie. Who is #1 in the frame ? Big Sam ?

Were Orlandi, Hammond and Spanish Dave "dregs" ? Or Vicente (signed on sept 3rd) I will give you Ryan Harley (August) :) Kemy arrived in time for pre season in 13/14. Was that a good signing ? August signings/transfers Holla, COG, McCourt, Gardner, Hughes, Baldock, stockdale didn't deliver...

Given in 2012/13 we bought 7 of the 8 additions to squad after end of June and 3 regulars at end of August , and we had quite a good season were we too slow then ? Or did we just bide our time waiting for our preferred targets at the right price or when they became available? Would our season...

I think we're violently agreeing.

We made a big change to the squad then and substantially improved quality. Both in the summer and January windows. Virtually none of that business was done in may or June. So if you think substantial signings are required this summer. I do. There's no evidence to suggest it will either be...

To go from 10th to 4th and with a massive budget increase from 2011/12 that season was major surgery.

We currently have 19 *first team* squad players on our books who played last season. Probably enough for a kick about. Ps: Hughton insists Baldock and Crofts will be fit for pre season.

In our most successful season and highest finish for over 30 years only 2 years back. We didn't sign anyone in May, 1 player in June and 4 on transfer deadline day. In August. 3 of whom were first team regulars that season and did rather well for us. Should we wait until August 31st to sign...

Hughton said this at the presser before Boro... 'We`re expecting both Andrew Crofts and Sam Baldock to start pre-season. It`s been a tougher one for Andrew because he`s been out for a longer period. With Sam it`s frustrating because of when the injury occurred during the season, but it`s a...
