Fair point, but I'm not so sure they could get that much for BA.

Personally, I think we need to be in or around the playoffs or Tony can wave bye bye to our infamously fickle fans. Less bums on seats = less revenue.

I'm sure we could afford BA if we wanted to buy him.

Nor can I.

TBH the FM 2008 list he uses is getting a bit out of date now.

I said I had to repeat myself. Just trying to help your understanding of my POV.

Fair enough Symyjym. Whatever the reasons for the recruitment delays, I really think we as a club need to review our process. The cost (or is that lost revenue!) of failure in this area dwarfs any short-term gains IMHO.

You deliberately missed my post: "How patronising. To repeat my previous explanations which you obviously struggle with. We are clearly not ready for the season ahead (TBF you don't seem to be disputing this). New players need time to gel. We are ALREADY far too slow in making key signings...

Wow! Where did that come from. Someone makes an almost identical point to me (Brighton Buzz), and you start to move your thinking in the right direction. Well, wonders will never cease.

When is it? I am going to try to be there (again). Still, whether I'm there or not, there are plenty of fans who will be asking questions about player recruitment (or lack of it), unless, of course, we actually sign the players we need before the date the forum takes place.

5 quality players minimum. 5 or 6 according to Sami. No tantrums here.

Nevertheless, there are plenty saying we can and should wait 'til the end of the window. There is, however, no way on earth we can wait that long.

Hilarious.

How patronising. To repeat my previous explanations which you obviously struggle with. We are clearly not ready for the season ahead (TBF you don't seem to be disputing this). New players need time to gel. We are ALREADY far too slow in making key signings, especially GK, LB & ST. On top of...

Now that's funny.

I think you'll be surprised. Plenty still saying we can wait 'til the end of the window. We can't.

I have to say that is a great summary.

Fail to prepare. Prepare to fail. Old saying, but so true.

Nail. On. Head. Careful tho', you're not allowed to criticize our beloved club's failings in the recruitment dept.

In a word (or is that 2 words)... .... Under-prepared.
