I'm with you on that. Don't rate the lad other than acknowledging he is quick and strong but then again, so was O'Grady (well maybe not that quick).

Or strong....:facepalm::lolol::bigwave:

Every window SB ?
All 12 of them since 2011 ?

Oh yeah my mistake I'm forgetting all those windows that slammed shut and didn't leave the Albion scrabbling around the loan window for strikers beginning with Sam Vokes and ending with Chuba Akpom.

It almost ALMOST makes me wish we were like palace.
At least they are resigned to not signing anybody possibly for financial reasons we are unaware of :shrug:.



It's the hope that kills yer'

That's 2. And Vokes was due to Hoskins injury after the window had shut. Any more ?

Ulloa, Hemed, Baldock, Murray , Zamora, Barnes. - the players who actually played , cost hardly anything, scored hatfuls and took us to 3 play offs and a promotion.
How did that happen if the recruitment was so poor ?

Yeah OBIKA though. :)

We've bent ourselves over though. We left this so so late that now everybody knows we're desperate and they can charge way over the odds. RIP our financial ********. We either overpay by a ton and get who we want or we don't sign anyone and go down.

99% of deals involving strikers are overvalued.
Can't see this will change anything other than making that a deadcert 100%.

Blimey this must be a struggle even for you, you're purposely missing the point after 1 reply.

Not buying the strikers during the window and having to rely on scrabbling around the loan window.

Please don't make me go through all the shitehouse loanee strikers we've had during the AMEX era, everybody is depressed enough already.

You've exaggerated wildly to make your point again (all 12 windows !! Without exception !! - but do you mean loans for injuries ?, Ashley Barnes ban, does Wilson count ? , Lingard ?) and are now rowing back. Or can't be bothered with the boring detail to stand it up.

On another thread you've called our recruitment team "southern league" - I assume you didn't mean that either.

We can rely on one man to lead NSC from the wilderness and to snuggle time in Barber's bosom.

I don't know which part of the recruitment team you work for, but............almost all of us are disappointed right now with yet another 'failure' in the transfer market. An area (strikers), that all of us know we have to improve on.

Just let us all vent our spleen for a day or so and please , just....STFU.

Lighten up, guess what, when likening the recruitment team to the days of the Albion before WWI and Charity Shield wins, I was joking.

Needing to preach the message is going to be tough for you tonight, if this is how you're starting.

Not signing a player because our due diligence detects a heart condition is not a failure but a success. For him, and for the club.
