    Translated into...Grigg and Wright are nearly gone and Winchester has something outside of football going on that needs some attention imo.

    Any good? Had the kids to Alton Towers and flamingo land but that one is a bit further away. Is it worth the extra travel?

    Johnson being very coy. Just had a read there. Clever from him, also putting more pressure in the recruitment group to complete the deals that are ongoing.

    I’m sorry to be a stress head, but LJ’s post match quotes don’t fill me with any confidence whatsoever

    Typical manager speak. Wants them all in and wants them now. I understand that but he has little say now. Signed off on the list and it's the recruitment group that complete.

    I get his frustration. We are close on deals though. Fact is there has been loads of moment on one deal specifically today.

    Recruitment group need to complete now though. Johnson knows what he is going giving post comment like that believe me.

    Sounds like they’re playing hardball on the business side and he’s playing hardball on the football side tonight to balance things. It sounds from what you and @Prehab26 are saying that there are players close but not financials agreed.

    Those comments tonight seem the first sense of tension between LJ and KLD etc.

    “not comfortable”
    “Sleepless nights”
    “We need a few, to be honest”
    “There will be bargains”

    Also sensed from the quotes that KLD and Speakman don’t rate Wright and are keen to sell but he isn’t

    Doesn't sound like any are close to being done mind. In fact sounds like the opposite.

    Not sure if people know but KLD has said the club must be sustainable first. It's none negotiable. He won't though money at it at all. Not straight away. Most money has been in the infrastructure so far, behind the scenes money. He is very astute. I think we will get what we need/want but it won't be immediate as we won't be splashing the cash.
