A lot of hysterical comments off the back of some fairly benign and understandable post match comments from RDZ. I don’t believe he said he wasn’t being backed. A few people need to grow some balls on NSC.
The people who need to grow some balls are those who cannot and will not ever accept any questioning of the clubs decision making. Honestly it’s become cult like.

luckily the club have just ‘given’ him a £60M+ central midfielder for the second half of the season so that’s one positive!

Albion are chasing a CB - well known to RDZ - who could be a record fee. And are turning down ridiculous offers for one of our best players. They’ve also bought 3 young players this window - one for £10m - to join the 20 or so others on loan and the other teenagers coming through the academy - a strategy that’s put us into the top 6 and 5th round of the cup. Will that do ?
Got to confess I'm a little frustrated by this one. We're bidding to a club in the middle of an actual war, and we're trying with incremental low bids to get a CB RDZ wants. Just pay the £20m Shaktar are asking, if it's a bit over the odds so be it.

Shaktar are like us , they won’t budge - and have sold players to foreign leagues for about €400M in the last 10 years or so. The war won’t lower their price. So your right it’s up to us to meet the £20M-£22M they want

I don't think I have seen any of that on the thread. There are just opposing viewpoints. Did you come here for the 5-minute argument?

It is a long time since we spent big money on transfers that didn't work out. Bloom will not want to repeat this and will be reluctant to go into established player market of £25m plus.
Club puts a good spin of adequate replacements but sure it has not helped losing top people from our recruitment dept.

Are you referring to RDZ’s comments post match? He does sound increasingly frustrated regarding incoming transfers. Maybe you are referring to that!
This and Tony needs to listen

Spot on. Or risk damaging your relationship with your most successful manager

You cannot judge current or future transfers on mistakes made in the past

Good to have you back. The transfer window would not be the same without you.
Perhaps we should be spunking money left, right and centre along with the likes of Villa, Everton and West Ham with no end product?
I will be happy with exactly the same squad when the window shuts.
The future is bright

Well. I actually would too if I didn’t know RDZ not only wants to keep Moises but also wants a couple in. And I don’t mean youthies

Until he goes too far and it all goes tits up!😁
Just saying, but it may or may not happen.
So he isn’t. And I conjecture he won’t. You are just arguing something tgat hasn’t happened may be a problem

Light heartedly, yes.
However, whilst he may not have gone too far yet, I merely put it out there that, given his apparent nature, the possibility exists that one day he might.(note my Smiley Face and don’t take my post too seriously).
Anyway, in the meantime, I am allowed to ‘conject ’ just as much as you are😉
