Summer window

This has to be the quiet before the storm?

 

Or, in some cases, the storm before the signings.

 

We need to remember that we do tend to do a lot of late business in the transfer window. It was August 31st last season when we unveiled Amad, Ba, Bennette, and Michut at the stadium.

I know it's looking pretty bleak at the minute, but Speakman has done enough to earn out trust. Let hope he'll pull something out of the bag with 2 weeks to go.

 

Wed heard about them all at this point though I believe..

 

Just like we’ve been linked to plenty players now?

 

I really wish the window was closed and we'd done all our business as its becoming very RTG esq on this thread at the moment, how do people know we havnt already agreed a permanent deal and a loan but the parent clubs are waiting for the replacements to arrive, some of the comments about the club when basically no one knows jack **** about what is going on other than we havnt signed the player they want yet, also I've mentioned a few timed only the club will know the situation with Stewart, that will have a massive affect on who we bring in.
I'm hearing so many comments about how the recruitment team failed so badly by not bringing a striker in, in January however we were still so close to the Premier league which was miles ahead of where any of us predicted we would finish, yes I think we desperately need another striker in but the window is still open so I'm more than happy to let the club take as long as they need to bring the right people in

 

I'd rather we waited for Amad, or equivalent, until the last few seconds ...

... than bring in a lightweight to placate the supporters.

 

Why can’t we sign a decent loanee now and an amad late in the window

 

Or wait until later in the window and sign two like Amad on loan. Pointless just signing anyone to placate some of our fan base.

 

Have we?

 

Yes

 

Not been linked with any genuine defensive midfielders

 

I couldn't name a handful we could sign tbh.

 

Is he that good like has he been ripping the league’s up ? Not so sure meself

 

Okay. Only Rusyn and Abline I can think of mind.

 

Cannon, Van Hooijdonk, Aravena

 

Cannon going to Preston. Van Hoojidonk loosely linked to be fair but doesn't and never has seemed concrete. Aravena has confirmed he isn't leaving this season.

 

We were linked to the 2 aberdeen strikers very early in the summer

Some great lines from her, my favourite is ...

... or something close to that.
