Eire is truly pissed off. As captain of the good ship hms reality or depression as some refer to her as soon as we’re promoted every single one of you jump onboard. Sadly this ship was never designed for such numbers and to prevent sinking I am forced to jump overboard. Hoping for a rescue from the Irish navy. Till we meet again aboard a different raft bye bye it’s been a pleasure
You’ll be picked up soon, put in a hotel, given a mobile phone for free and a weekly food voucher to enjoy. You’ll also get some private healthcare if you are feeling poorly
Open minded who is at fault. They’ve (owners) spent a huge chunk of money and they’ve listened to who Farke has wanted to bring in. I’ve no idea if we’ve screwed up in a few transfers, if we’ve been unrealistic, if we’ve pissed about or been played by agents. Whatever the reason, it’s been a shambles for the main part. I can’t hit them with your stick for not backing Farke as they’ve spent a lot, if it’s not been well spent then (which I don’t think it has) then questions need asking If Farke asked for these signings, how can you back him and also say no. Right down to Harrison coming back and the last two signings from previously Schmidt and Largie not being needed to having to pay off Bamford, and allowing Wober and others to go out on the cheap. If it’s down to Farke and it fails he’ll be out soon enough, if it’s down to the recruitment team and it fails I’d expect them to receive their marching orders
Hold on, didn’t the ITK guy from WACCOE say Buanotte was a done deal?? Was the flight hitch that after taking off from the south coast it couldn’t cross Chelsea??
He did give it the bullseye and was the first to say its gone to **** too. I guess a lot can change, but Smyth rolling out the rescheduling of the flight was obviously bollocks and things had changed He was at least 5 hours ahead breaking both bits of news and has enough in the bank regarding all the signings this year bar our first one
I think when you look at who comes in you can often have a stab at who has the biggest say. With Marsch we signed a few guys he’d worked with previously. Though strangely aaronson was apparently coming anyway. It was pretty clear we had Marsch led signings and orta led ones. With Farke it’s less clear cut - we don’t have a DOF… but as he’s German and came to us from gladbach I think we can say he likely led the interest in the Bundesliga signings. As for the rest of them. Who knows? He’s declared himself satisfied with defence/midfield but pointed the finger at the lack of attacking signings. Seems most likely options were presented to him as and he approved them. But you have to consider what that means. If you’re given the choice between DCL or nothing, you’re gonna say DCL. Maybe.
Dogs breakfast slow start then pace picks up and before long we have new CBs, new LB, freebie CF, 3 new midfielders. Slow for a bit and then a new keeper, then a freebie CF and then a new LW. Still plenty of time though but zero happens and still nothing happening and then yet another forward goes elsewhere then according to reports we go back months and go for Hamer, try again for BEK. Dogs breakfast but so far we are pointedly worse off in forwards than we should be
Wolves have signed Tolu Arokodare. Thats a striker i would have taken a punt on. If he adjusts to the PL he will be a proper handful.
