Players like him should be bought in my opinion. He must be a mile off Liverpool side. Give liverpool a small fee with a sell on. Give the lad a signing on fee and performance bonus, with a modest salary. Leave loan spots for them you cant sign like Doyle. Later in August prem sides will be begging teams to take loans and we need to keep slots available for any that fit our profile or just are too good to turn down.
Its a good point, nee bugger knows for sure why we havent signed everyone yet, or whether we will get the better quality players in. I suspect neither is as straightforward as we would want it. I understand why people are pulling their hair out, and why people like me think we will get to a good place. Both perspectives seem reasonable enough to me. One thing I reckon we can predict is we are going to be a young team. I hope if we lose a few, or make mistskes, we dont get on their backs. This wont be the players who have landed us in the ****, or left us in it, by and large.
It will be great looking back to this thread in February/ March half will be dancing a jig or hid under the bed and pissed off, the other half will just be pissed off or happy they were wrong.
We will be dancing a jig Take no notice of the bed wetter's And especially of the clown who stamps his foot down and says I want promotion now
Nope, I’ll be at the SoL fully supporting the team. Let’s hope we’ve got something to properly get behind.
Like I said earlier mate, I was no fan of Johnson but I like the way he has us playing. But it’s a long old season and we need that youthful energy because the experienced/old bastards have let us down in the closing weeks of the last 3 seasons when the going got a bit tough
He should do mate, I think he's gotten himself lost he should get away across the road , the whole reason I moved across here was to get away from being insulted for disagreeing with someone. He should maybe stick to posting 3 day old links to newspaper articles
We’ve literally made 3 signings tho, why can’t we just make signings we need? Are you in no way worried about the current state of affairs?
I don't really know why some are on here If your not behind the team and only want to complain Go to rtg
I agree. There are ways to debate and insults are going too far. I have a point of view which I think is right but I will certainly try to refrain from mud slinging when conversing with other posters. I'd expect the same back, which, in the main has been the case on this board.
Personal opinion, if are team isn't good enough when the window shuts, then I'll be worried, 5 weeks left to get the players, don't understand complaining about the transfer window when it's only 3 weeks into it, plenty of time yet
The transfer window is a nightmare used by players, clubs and agents to manipulate the system ... ... it's all about keeping your nerve which Donald, and some fans, obviously find beyond them. I'd like us to sign certain players but not everyone wants to live in the NE and I'd rather the club didn't bribe them to come to somewhere they'd be unhappy.
I'll be pessimistic if we still have Grigg, lose Hume and don't sign 3 more players .... ... at the moment I don't have enough information to be concerned.
All I see from the new management is positivity why so many can find a negative I can't understand and especially the clown
