its sad to see when someone puts his/her head above the parapet and has the temerity to express concern our beloved club have not secured striker replacement that we have needed since Jan this year. We are often told by some that this is a forum for discussion and debate yet when that happens a certain section ( i'm assuming former contributors from RTG) dismiss the comments and the poster as negative moaners. Where is the debate there? I have for a long time now restricted my thoughts on here as ......its just not worth it. But for those who feel all is well and we will get it right...by the way, we all hope that is the case. If losing to Ipswich, Crewe (league 2) both at home and Preston ( who I believe will end up at the wrong end of The Championship) is not a topic for a debate about the need to replace what we glaringly need, i'm not sure what the point of this forum is.

I think it’s more that it’s the same regurgitated point day in day out which turns into 4 pages of discussion, you log on thinking there’s positive news but it’s just the same old ****e being spouted as the day before I get everyone’s frustrated but we just have to sit back and hope some good news drops soon

I think everyone is agreement mate, whatever side of the fence you sit on, that we need more in. It's the constant going over the same points that gets on some folks nerves. The transfer market is such a hard place to navigate, to get the players in you really want and need. Hopefully by the end of the window the club will be in a great place to kick on.

You can’t debate with some people though, especially the ones who are panicking because we’ve lost a couple of games. The issue isn’t that people are concerned, it’s the constant moaning and slagging of the club/Speakman, when they will be doing what they can.

If we’d won every game and Hemir had scored in them, would people be so desperate to see movement? I don’t think so.

If we still look like this at the end of the window and still haven’t picked up points then I’d understand, but the season isn’t over by September.

Very true, but as its a forum then different fans will want to express their opinions in different ways, and as each negative result happens, then it snowballs... its the whole point of a forum.

Unless i've missed something, just demonstrate one poster who is panicking ? yes plenty raising concern and rightly so, but i've yet to see someone going into meltdown ( Maybe Monty) its just debate.

I understand that mate, it would be boring if we all thought the same. On the whole the discussions have been pretty civilised.

I never said it was on this forum to be fair. I said Twitter.

All he's said is around 6 clubs are after him. I was only responding to Bob as what he was saying was completely false and it starts misleading people.
He definitely gets more right that than alot of people give him credit for.
But aye people can make their own mind up

I'd disagree with you.. Bob, bless him, gets absolutely nothing right.for all of his "insider knowledge" Not once has he names a specific player or any definite "This player is signing" or "This player is not". Not once has he nailed nailed his colours to the mast with a definite.. Bob plays the ambiguous game. Lots of if buts and maybe's A wink, wink, nudge , nudge but never once anything specific.. Only then do his merry little band of followers chirp in and back him up. Bob:emoticon-0127-lipss

The problem is though that Kipper doesn’t do debate, they come on here to post an ultra negative comment without providing any context at all and then never replies to the people that reply to them.

People have the right to be concerned, I’m pretty sure everyone is concerned but at least provide context instead of just hurling abuse at the people running the club.

We're all concerned mate, shouting at other posters is just daft ...

... it looks like a case of some people believing that 'he who shouts longest and loudest cares the most'.

It's just fkn boring tbh.

If I cut and paste what you’ve just posted and put it on here every minute of the day until the transfer window closes I reckon even you will get the picture <ok><ok>

I wasn't referring to "Kipper" or any other individual, was just a general thing i've noticed over a few weeks now.
