Summer window

Probably just misreading things, but don’t particularly like Stewart ‘liking’ Broadhead’s Insta post of him after he scored yesterday.

 

Aye him to factor in as well! and, we can have more options from the bench!

 

I’m just getting used to the fact we aren’t going to spend big on transfers at least until we sell someone for a big fee and we definitely aren’t going to offer competitive wages for championship clubs pushing promotion. If we go out and spend £7-8m on a striker I’ll eat my words but I just don’t see it, as mentioned previously 2 of the promoted teams have wage bills that are considerably higher than ours yet we have twice their revenue.

Mogga saying we need to move players on to free up wages when we have one of the lowest wage bills in the league isn’t what you want to hear.

I understand the sustainability argument it just doesn’t make sense to me that clubs with 10k season card holders, no player sales to inflate revenue and owners who aren’t worth much on paper are outspending us.

Obviously I know f**k all from inside the club and how it’s ran, that’s just my pessimistic 50p worth.

 

They said it was their intention though mate. I’d definitely rather we go up able to compete and cumulative growth gets us there, but saying they want us promoted and having no goal scorer don’t add up. At this point I think top 6 is probably unrealistic as even a quality Ukrainian or Chilean will need time to bed in and we’re weaker threat wise up top. Extra height and physicality should in theory help us concede less admittedly but we need a regular goal scorer to go one better in my view.

 

One of the positives (hopefully) is that we have Dack to play soon. His goal threat might help the striker and wingers.

 

Aye? I didn’t see it like.

 

Definitely. I think a lot of people are underestimating him, if he can stay fit he’ll be quality for us. Just touching on what you mentioned about height, offensively it means nowt if Roberts and Clarke can’t beat the first man!

 

Aye I meant defensive vulnerability as much as anything. Clarke and Roberts didn’t have the same overlapping players. Amad’less and Gooch’less or course but also we seemed to have a different system.

 

Totally agree about Pritchard starting, although Bellingham played well, Pritchard gives more creativity.

 

We've got Stewart coming back in a couple of month as well let's hope he's back to his best as he isn't going anywhere this year

 

Now that is something I’m looking forward to. Him on form and yesterday was a different game. Still think he needs competition and a suitable option after a knock or tiredness. Hemir needs easing in.
Out of interest what makes you say he’s definitely not leaving? Am I right in saying you have a connection to him? I think it’s the right choice for the club to make. We won’t get much worth having for him in his current state and him leaving isn’t the right time. Better we have his performances.

 

I sometimes think Pritch is better coming on for the last half hour when the game opens up. There'll definitely be games when he starts.

 

I think he and Batth will be away this window. Pritchard is a misery at the best of times, so if he thinks he won't be starting games he'll want a move. Will be on decent money too, so him and Batth should free up some wages

 

Possibly mate, though they can still do a job for us.

 

I just think he's better with a centre forward in front of him. The frustrating thing was he took the centre forward off and brought him on.

 

I know what you mean mate, definitely better if he's got some one as a focal point, that he can slide balls in between defenders

 

Got to hope we see some movement this week. There is nothing out there at the mo, not even from the wind up pretend "i'm hearing" knob heads.........

 

Probably sign someone today then, they tend to just happen these days. ( although with a game tomorrow Thursday or Friday would be more likely)

 

With all of the whingeing because we lost yesterday (one fecking game ), why don't we all just support 'United, 'City, Arsenal or Liverpool . . . . that'll surely be much easier

Maybe one of us should let the hierarchy at the club know how easy it is to sign whoever we might need, 'cos it's obviously fecking easy to identify and sign the right players and they don't even realise . . . . the useless twats

 

Amad with the triangles we created down the right were a miss.
