Summer window

I must admit I am guilty of falling into the trap of extrapolating those vocal few and thinking they speak for the fanbase (I’m an exile so I don’t have much else to go by).

Sometimes I need to remember to take a step back and realise it may only be a minority who happen to be very loud and very repetitive (spamming I think is the term).

 

It’s not 1 or 0

I think the model is getting rightful criticism.

 

Is it? We haven’t kicked a ball this season. Last season we finished in the championship play offs. The season before that we were in league one. Think people need to calm down and see what the rest of the window brings.

 

Yeah so do I, the way I look at it though i that those who are content aren’t really going to post about it

 

Currently, what's the main issue that deserves criticism in your view.

 

Clear year on year progression isn’t good enough?

 

I'd love to know what they'd like to see put in it's place. It'll no doubt be something similar to the Ellis Short era pumping endless stream of money into the club. Where did that get us?

 

Also conflicting comments after some have claimed TM has been telling bernie slaven that he won't recover properly from his injury so we will cash in on him this summer

 

Take it you've not got your answer yet?

 

No thank you

 

That's a load of bs. If he will never recover from this injury, then I'm pretty sure we won't be able to sell him. Medicals and all that. At least not this summer.

 

How the hell are we supposed to sell an asset that hasn't played a meaningful game in 6 months, is still injured and has it all to prove when he does come back? Ha'way man, I know it's just your opinion but be realistic. As for his contract 'subject to fitness' it would appear he's been offered that and rejected it. He shoud be sacking his agent.

 

And if boro are interested as rumoured the last person he’d be telling is slaven

 

I’ve seen lots saying ‘just give him/them what they want’ and advocating signing experienced journeyman so, aye basically.

 

He wouldn't have a ****ing clue. WUM simple as, just look at his posting history.

Even the name Kipper tells me that he's fishing for bites

 

Stop talking sense man, we need some pitchfork action.....

 

I've not read anything from the limited comments available that stoked any fires.

As I said yesterday, if at the end of the window we are still short we can complain / ask questions imo

 

Well never mind furniture... what about choosing paint colours, or if you're old fashioned wallpaper. Furniture, soft furnishings and decor colours.. to produce the best result. All a nightmare lots of arguments.

Perhaps it is something similar with Mowbray and Speakman? In deciding which players to bring in or to get of. Now who would be the female and male... Speakman seems to favour small wingers and Mowbray big strong lads. As for new contracts someone is insisting we stick to a budget.

 

I will freely admit I was disappointed we didn't get a striker in January, I saw and still do see it as an opportunity we missed.

But then you look at the injuries we suffered in the last few games and even a fit firing striker wouldn't have helped when we lost 8 (I think?) First teamers to injury.

I can only give the recruitment team the benefit of the doubt until the window closes, I don't believe they will leave us short again

 

So what is wrong with the model then?

How would you run it
