To be honest, I'd rather sort out the ****ing mess that our defence is rather than sign a new defender. The lack of quality in that department so far is as a result of poor management and communication rather than lacking decent players. With that said, I wouldn't turn a good CB away. Especially as our only backup is a repeat injury Hall.
I presume we will be playing 2 up top then. I fear that a few more loans are needed to steady the ship but it's a start
Believe Hemed could turn a to be a very shrewd piece of business. He can be quite nasty, very tough and no nonsense forward. A bit like Glenn Murray, who I like and sb_73 hate
I believe the attack department is someway sorted. How about defence department because Rangel by himself isnt enough.?
Interesting to see those two loans get through ... so have to give some credence (in tough times) to the management in completing the deals. So we shall all be looking for that CB position to be filled now ... we’re waiting boys....
What eats me apart from my lover Mr Grape is the FFP If we knew we were going to get fined why not say sod that and not let them walk all over us. Go and buy some decent players anyway ? Do the provisional deals in May ready for July Yep I know there was a deal but seems we bent over too much and got slapped with an embargo anyway With our money bags we could of signed an Italian defence, French midfield and kept Jamie Mackie up top all paid for by a offshore company ... edit Japanese front players Better still buy a South America outright that loans us players and pay Amazon to let us use their logo on our shirts But we didn’t we employed SM paid the fines and then scrambled for loans that no one else wants Maybe we were warned that we would get relegated or get a points reduction? We did the same thing employing SM
He’ll get a chance. It was fair to Etheridge to start him first and he’s done well saving two penalties and keeping one clean sheet but Smithies will go on to be their number one.
To have both Wells and Hemed officially signed is fantastic, what a relief! Wish it could have been sooner but WELCOME guys, sorry I can't be there Saturday to greet you in person.
Great business and what made me laugh was Reading fans on Twatter moaning and bitchin. Always nice to sign players that others want.
