Unbelievable that the club were unable to find someone as good considering they had four months to do it. Having nobody at all is a major cock up by the club IMO. I appreciate they were looking for a world class player at a knockdown rate but when they couldn't sign Pritchard surely they could...
How many shots on target have we had in the last four games? Yes if the defence didn't concede we could get 0-0 draws but is that the objective now?
I am rather hoping we get a win tonight which will make it, points wise, better than two draws which we excelled at last season. Turning draws...
It seems the club think the same way as you. I think the division is much stronger this year and this paucity of alternatives upfront will cost us. Wilson may have been a puking up half fit non combative player but he still scored some crucial goals and earned us points. I think the lack of...
I am personally very confused as to why this recurring problem hasn't been solved and I do wonder if we reach a level that the club won't break which is hampering us. I cannot think of any other reason that we keep shooting ourselves in the foot whilst seemingly getting it right in every other...
Dress it up how you like, it APPEARS to some of us, that the club have failed to address the position that was the most pressing if we want to get automatic promotion. This is a recurring failure and has cost us before, so you can't be surprised that some of us think it's a shortcoming that the...
I have absolutely no problem staying in this division although the buzz of getting promoted would be fantastic and what you say is correct. I just can't get too wound up about it as I really do enjoy being up the top in this division. We will never reach the pinnacle though will we, although...
Just saying I think we'd be much better off if we had signed him , as we have no cover for Baldock and he would have at least given some competition. Baldock is the only player in the squad without competition, I quoted Vydra because he was available and Barber says we couldn't find any players...
No, I said he wasn't prepared to fund 7-9 million PLUS wages in excess of 30k+ per week, all IMO obviously. So up to 9 million PLUS a four year contract? So an additional 6 million plus in wages. So a goal outlay of over 13 million in all likelihood. I understand this is an obscene amount of...
I have no doubt a deal was agreed I just question whether it was of the level of what Derby paid for Vydra, for the sake of argument which appears to be in the ball park of 7 million plus big wages.. Would we not be a lot better off if we had Vydra in our squad? Or are you saying either CH...
We don't actually know what the purchase price and wages were but I doubt it was 30k+ a week plus 7-9 million for a player who has hardly played first team football above this level do you?
That would be an even bigger gamble than the club record we paid for CMS
TB will not fund the 7-9 million required for a classy quick striker plus the minimum 30k a week wages which would break the wage structure, although GM is apparently on these wages. It's not my money so I can't really complain.
I am entertained, even when we lose so I don't mind staying in...
Because we need 4 central defenders during the season. Duffy has had a bit of a rough ride in the opinions passed on yesterday's game. He was hung out to dry by Bruno being out of position so many times and having his worst game for ages. He has only just arrived and needs time to settle down...
I had no problem with him starting as a sub given what has gone on but it backfired badly. Norwood had an absolute nightmare and is likely to be useless in a two man midfield as he is too lightweight. As the OP says we lost the game because we lost the midfield and we got progressively worse as...
