Just a defence to loan in now then.

And, frankly, a midfield. I don’t get the praise for that bunch at all.
To be honest, I'd rather sort out the ****ing mess that our defence is rather than sign a new defender. The lack of quality in that department so far is as a result of poor management and communication rather than lacking decent players. With that said, I wouldn't turn a good CB away. Especially as our only backup is a repeat injury Hall.

There's another possible factor.

Jamie Mackie.

For all the doubters over his ability, he was a real 150% player - never leaving anything on the pitch or the training ground. His attitude and application was immense.

I think we're missing a character like that on the playing staff.
He is currently helping out Oxford United

I believe the attack department is someway sorted. How about defence department because Rangel by himself isnt enough.?
 
Interesting to see those two loans get through ... so have to give some credence (in tough times) to the management in completing the deals.
So we shall all be looking for that CB position to be filled now ... we’re waiting boys....

What eats me apart from my lover Mr Grape is the FFP

If we knew we were going to get fined why not say sod that and not let them walk all over us. Go and buy some decent players anyway ? Do the provisional deals in May ready for July

Yep I know there was a deal but seems we bent over too much and got slapped with an embargo anyway

With our money bags we could of signed an Italian defence, French midfield and kept Jamie Mackie up top all paid for by a offshore company ... edit Japanese front players

Better still buy a South America outright that loans us players and pay Amazon to let us use their logo on our shirts

But we didn’t we employed SM paid the fines and then scrambled for loans that no one else wants

Maybe we were warned that we would get relegated or get a points reduction?

We did the same thing employing SM

Possibly if we did that then the embargo might have been longer than just 1 window.

Great business and what made me laugh was Reading fans on Twatter moaning and bitchin. Always nice to sign players that others want.
