When did the striker we tried to sign fail his medical? Was that today?

Ashley Barnes anyone? Scores in the Premier league, gets people sent off and Knows the club

Tony's a hugely successful gambler, doesn't mean he wins every time though does it?!! And the football market is a crazy one. Looks like this time his gambling hasn't paid off.

But if your not prepared to pay the going rate to begin with your always going ton accused of doing it on the cheap and it's clearly backfired it had been 4.5 months

We've topped up, big time.
And so it slams shut, roll on January.

Correct.
4.5 months spent scouring spreadsheets and European leagues, led to a case of couldnt see the wood for the trees. Pace and quality up front to PL level was required on 17 April. Boro's disaster told us everything we needed to know. Apart from a few, most were calling for that back then, repeatedly.
Clubs no bigger than us - Watford, Hudd and Burnley simply got on with improving their squad deficiencies.

Having forwards that look like scoring helps too.

I wouldn't have wanted him this morning. Now, I would be delighted with him.

Who said we were trying to do it on the cheap?
Plenty of pl clubs failing to get the players they want too

So all these strikers we've been linked with throughout the summer, the failed medical, Abraham choosing Swansea etc, was all a load of shite because we were waiting until the final day?
Too right. So bloody obvious.

Exactly that. The problem isn't just that our current strikers are not good enough but the fact that we only have three first team strikers and one of them is injured indefinitely! I can't believe that there isn't a decent young striker in Europe that we couldn't have tempted or taken a gamble on. No striker is actually worse than a gamble even if it's going for someone that is currently playing at a lower level. If Hemed gets injured against West Brom and Murray injury takes longer than expected (which always seems to be the case in recent seasons) we are genuinely ****ed.
Busy sorting out Richie Towell’s loan move.

I feel for them, I really do. They've been busting a gut all summer to recruit the right players. Tony and Winstanley too and it's just not worked out. Gutted for them.
Or Hemed's sale to Reading.
