    IMO I think he is gash and a poor fullback when I have seen him play both for you and certainly at Rangers, be 100% honest how poor is he. you have seen him more than any of us,

    He has some ability and we all had hopes he would break through. Had his opportunities and eventually realise hes just not good enough at Championship level

    Defensively not good enough. Hes decent enough going forward.

    Warnock knows a defender and discarded him almost immediately.

    So with just under 1 hour to go we are decimated at the back, and no Woods transfer, what a way to run a club................<ok>

    I can see that your management seems to be running the club down but I suspect it is a matter of balancing the books.....Others have already talked about the 40 million or so drop in income...…. sales will both fill this gap (as a one-off) and also help drop the wages bill. It's an inevitability due to the relegation. If you had a sugar-daddy or a pot of dosh, you could risk keeping all, taking a huge loss and getting back up. But it is a huge risk and seemingly one the owners will not countenance.
    At the same time, letting four CDs go and not getting some in smacks of desperation or huge confidence in your U23s.
    I also assume loans are countenanced to drop the wages bill if you can't sell the player. It reduces outgoings and gives you the option to get them back if you do regain the promised land....if promised land it be? I have my doubts!!!!! it's fine if one survives but it cannot be comfortable and enjoyable....it wasn't for us last time.

    The Merrycans are thieving bastards!
    The lad had his heart set on coming and was ready to have his medical.
    Terrible final transfer day, feel really sorry for Potter.​

    I still live in hope, but it doesn't surprise me at all. the club is just here to rape and they are doing a fantastic job of it.

    leaving yourself with one 1 senior centre half, centre midfielder and centre forward available for the second game of the season is crazy beyond belief.

    Billy Reid, the @SwansOfficial assistant, is standing in for Graham Potter, who is unwell. Reid has confirmed @declanjohn7 is at club and set to sign. Also admitted probable departures of Clucas, Fernandez and Amat.

    This is where we are at now, We were all hoping for a bit of strengthening and nothing going out and with that and seeing our result on Saturday, it gave fans a little hope of a half tidy season, well they have managed to step right on that idea, ****ers.

    I have to say this is the most disappointed I have felt over any transfer window over the last 10 years or so, decimated a squad, which was to be expected to a certain extent and not replaced hardly any of them.

    Coincidence that Potter is ‘unwell’ today of all days?

    Perhaps he’s totally pissed off with what they’ve done / are doing to him?

    30 mins to go and no outgoings or incomings confirmed it's a disgrace.

    That bright spark of optimism I had after Saturdays game, has been firmly drowned by that kunt Jenkins. Were beyond a shamble now, **** me we will be scouting Ashleigh Road next for a CH. So we can sell Clucas and Fernandez for lats say 12m but wont pay the 7m for woods. I ****ing give up.
