At times I sit and read this forum thinking we genuinely deserved the Allams.

When all this bluster blew last week, some of us were saying, why not just say nothing until its all done, then wow and amaze everyone. ... ive always been of the opinion if you over achieve you're a star, if you under achieve you're a "insert word of your choice'...
Under promise and over achieve is always the best way. I think we saw a little bit of panic from the club and they then over promised to try and calm nerves
Piss poor seems very harsh. In fact I think it's a solid 7/10
Allsop: Jury is out, but seem like a perfect fit for Liams system
Vinagre: Top left back at this level, only question mark is fitness
Twine: Excellent signing
Lokilo: Cheap punt, worth a go
Delap: Looks excellent
Connolly: Showing the potential he showed 2/3 years ago. Just needs to get fit and stay fit
Philogene: Probably our most exciting signing since the prem days. A top young talent who will get you off your seat
Morton, Rak-Sakyi and Davis would've made it an unbelievable window, but it's still been very good and may yet get better. Add to that our contract renewals and we haven't lost anyone we didn't want to.
Some sense finally.
I wonder if Morton may well be on again with the Gravenberch signing for them.
You’re not unique at all.
You’re correct
That's the problem with having a showbiz person as the owner. Keep stum until it's done then announce it.
2 summers ago we were signing free agents who’d just come off the back of playing for Portsmouth and Exeter.
Now a window including multiple internationals is ‘underwhelming’. Not to mention as some others have said about the contract extensions to key players.
We’ll undoubtedly end the window with a squad that’s good enough to be in the top half of this division and if things fall right for us we might get in and around that top 6.

Piss poor maybe is harsh, I maybe should have said it's come across piss poor and very unorganised ( tbf I'm also going on this I've heard from others ) as fa Ra's the incomings it's probably a tad fairer to say underwhelming...
Allsop although good is a downgrade
Vinagre I'm not sure we'll see consistently enough
Twine is a good signing IF we play him in his position
Lokilo imo doesn't improve us, just a cheaper version of what we had
Delap looks ok so far but if he carries on at his current goals per game then he'll get 11, worse then then Oscars return last season ( that's if he plays every game ) Oscar's goals per game was a goal every 2.6 games and delaps is currently 1 in 4.
Connolly was with us last season so can't really class as new signing but I agree he's looking good and better then last season.
Philogene isn't here yet so I'll leave that till after the window shuts, but on paper its positive.
No point talking about players we didn't get as it makes no difference to us now.
I really really hope LR absolutely smashes it and takes us to the top 6. But with this squad I personally can't see it. But I'll be the happiest man alive to be proved wrong and I'll gladly admit I was wrong if it happens.
There was that winter window with Bruce where the pundits reckoned we'd done the best business and then we got relegated...
We'll see tomorrow, at the moment feels like a let down, as noted by some we maybe played it up too much
Suspect many other taems supporters / forums are disappointed with theirs as well ...

He's a very competent Champ keeper, but he's not an upgrade on Ingram ( who I'd say was slightly better ) . We have 2 very strong championship keepers.

He’s surrounded himself with the Botanic sycophants and think they are spokespeople for the supporters on a whole.
Plus we’ve got “our style” which gives us an advantage over most teams
Sorry I couldn’t help it
The only club who deserved the Allams is the whiteshite. FACT.
