Wrong as they won't get us promoted or wrong that we won't sign anyone?
Wrong as in we won't sign anyone!

Sorry but you're wrong. We might bring in someone for the under 21s but that's our lot.

C'mon BG, it's not annoying. It's that the Club try to be professional and not 'gob off' before someone's photographed holding up the shirt. Recent history should remind you of that....... 'a la Pritchard'.
Ha Ha Ha! Are you either PB, CH or Mr Bloom...I can't say for sure but I would be amazed if we didn't bring in anymore players...

Hang on, we have only played five games, and already you don't think our team have a chance of even making the play-offs?, that's a tad harsh!
Our two home games thus far were both won comfortably, and we drew at Derby, all good results I'd say. The draw at Reading was perhaps a bit of a blip, but even that defeat at Newcastle yesterday, well, not many teams will come away from there with anything, and remember we did play much of the second half with only ten men.
I share your frustration when it comes to a lack of new signings, but the window hasn't closed yet, and I'm still hopeful. Either way though, even with our current crop of players, we should manage to reach the play-offs at least.

I only suggest 30+ year olds who are proven to do a specific job as when a left back and a CB were required.
As regards signing a striker our record for signing strikers from Div 1 in the hope that they will step up isnt very good but our record of bringing them in from abroad is much better so hopefully they will be negotiating with someone from Europe.
As regards our form to date this season we have played well once v Forest and have been 2nd best in all of our away games but managed to scrape 2 lucky draws before being completely outplayed by Newcastle the probable league winners. So that again doesnt auger well for our prospects this season Granted our poor form could be put down to the uncertainty of Stephens and a possible transfer having an effect on the team in general but we have to overcome such traumas. Hopefully the international break will allow CH and his staff to get us back performing as we did lat season. We may also sign the much needed striker/attacking midfielder/no 10 but not from Div 1.

It is they who scraped a lucky draw.Did you go to Derby?

No but many who did reckon we were poor in a game that was there for the taking. We were apparently very poor at Reading and the least said about yesterday the better.

We're still after both a) Bradley Dack and b) Rico Henry according to several reports.
I went and I thought we were the better team.

Both lower division unproven players but the reports on Henry are very good.

I accept your view on Derby but last seasons team would have turned up yesterday not stayed in the hotel. We were abysmal and I am sure a lot of it is down to the transfer speculation relating to Stephens and him not playing.

We played well at Derby, had the better of the chances but couldn't capitalise.

PS: Asamoah Gyan strikes me as nothing but a football mercenary. I'd steer well clear.
