Belfast Mags Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Horrendous window, and we've missed a great opportunity to significantly strengthen in one or two key positions (especially left wing) with some very obvious options completely ignored (Scott Sinclair would have been great). I think the only good thing that may come out of this summer, if anything at all, is the dismissal of Pardew. Though what happens after that would be anyone's guess. JFK will take over, no question about it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingxlnc Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Lukaku instead of Gomis temporarily - now that would have made all the sense in the world. Then get Gomis on a free transfer on a pre-contract deal in Jan 1. It's really not difficult, this director of football lark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmojorisin75 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Nothing surprising in what's gone on, I'm pleased with Remy but it very much feels as though everyone else has moved forward and improved Aye, when put in context of the business the clubs around us have done it's been a shocking window. We need to pray to jeebuz that injuries don't cripple us, and probably pray to all the other gods that pardew doesn't cripple us as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexf Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 annoyingly with the win on saturday and the 2 week break. Just one signing would have kept the feel good factor and renewed optimism going. But no now it's back to feeling like shit and disillusioned with where this club is going.

pedro111 Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Like I said before. The win against Fulham was probably the worst thing that could have happened regarding potential incoming transfers. Had we not won we would probably have seen at least one new face.

merlin Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 The window was par for the course - how anyone expects Ashley to start spending real money on improving the side when he has continually rubbed fans' noses in the dirt and shown no interest in the club other than as an Ad vehicle for his tat business, is a mystery to me. He was dragged kicking and screaming to the transfer market in Jan purely because he was going to lose money if the club went down and that will also have infuriated him because he hates doing things he has set his mind on NOT doing. As has been said, he is a cancer on the club and most people never ever completely recover from cancer - the fact that NUFC sit - proudly, by Ashley's standards - at the very BOTTOM of the transfer spend this window has made the club a laughing stock and it now sits below the likes of Southampton and Norwich as clubs with ambition. There is NO hope until someone with more ambition for the club than this guy buys it out - until then, the fans have it in their OWN hands to withhold from Ashley that which he holds most dear.....their money.
