So we spend more and end up having to buy a lower league striker who has an average record because that's all we can get to sign for us at this stage of the transfer window?

Like leaving the substittutions so late they cannot effect the game
But seriously, we need so many players (five) that we will have to wait until summer to choose.
Yep....the defence needs completely re-shaping for a start, let alone any thoughts re strikers.

We didn't stall on Knockaert's signing and got him in early in the window, the same for Ridgewell and Towell
so who are the players at we are trying to buy where you think that we the ones stalling the deal? and why would we do that if they were available?

The question is, are we going in with strong enough bids, not whether we are stalling. I suspect not.

I don't think he is. Jem is a positive fan and defender of the club's policies, but I don't think that he'd have access to transfer fees and wages to such detail.

Nope. Panic is better. If done well, it's surprisingly pays dividends.

Think our chance has gone
No one could argue that TB, season after season, hasn't subsidised the playing side. As the club spends higher wage costs and net transfer spending, £m's over the club turnover.
Success on the field is not just about the grand total of money expended.
The question is - how are Middlesborough, Derby, and now Ipswich and Sheffs Weds, all able to keep the goals and winners flowing, not letting setbacks destroy team confidence? The league table doesn't lie. They're not ascending due to luck and the Albion crumbling due to bad luck.
Perhaps they have classy match winners, midfield battlers who are able to face up to any opponents in this division, and they lack error-prone, old and ill disciplined defenders.

Just heard the full interview on Radio Sussex, and CH goes on to say that they are working hard to bring the right player(s) in. Interesting that AN chose to leave that bit out!!

He said that when Bong got injured so it is just a phrase to please the supporters and said with very little conviction although he and his ardent followers who can see no wrong may believe it.

Nah. I don't know him personally, but from what I know of him - from here, Twitter and his blog - he seems a good bloke and not the sort of needy person that creates second accounts to back his opinions up.
Early Doors
Coach
Maybe, but my point was that AN only partially quoted CH, and in doing so changed the context of the conversation.

Isnt that standard format for journalists to make it sound to suit their agenda rather than what is actually said without ommissions.

Coach
Exactly, so you have to wonder his agenda is!

One would assume to be controverssial and sell more papers is his prime aim.
