huss9 Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Got to hope we don't get any major injuries between now and may. think brighton will be as just as worried about losing knockaert and murray. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foluwashola Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 It's the fact we're back to penny pinching, saving every penny we can, taking a chance, crossing our fingers and hoping things will be ok. It's a step backwards in mentality, I thought we were past this, head in the sand, not listening and them thinking they know best that's the most disappointing thing. Nothing's changed, the still see saving 2 million as being more important than cementing promotion. They're still fucking short sighted, arrogant, mean, stubborn pricks. It's so frustrating. Cunts. There is still the possibility, should we win the league, that they are proven 100% correct on this occasion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Just because something ends up working doesn't mean it's right. The folly of this situation is indicative of the remaining and longstanding problems with the ethos of the club, regardless of whether or not it works.

r0cafella Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Why did we put all our eggs in 1 basket this transfer window. I'm not sure we did, I think our only intention this window was to not spend a penny. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafa will be expecting a big splurge in the summer now, that's for sure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we did, I think our only intention this window was to not spend a penny. aye. Like every other window we've let go by, we never had any intention of signing anyone. When we want to sign people we don't seem to have much bother doing so, signings are made with very little media attention usually, and sometimes 5-6 on the belt. This is about the 10th deadline day where we've 'bid' for someone only for it to fail. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleBingo Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 Didn't really expect anything after what I was told yesterday but lived in hope more than anything else. A gentle reminder to everyone that the two-bob chancer is never ever going to change the way he operates. That said, what's done is done and we should have more than enough to see this through.....time for the manager, the players and especially the fans to grow a pair and get on with it.

If that were to happen most managers would alter tactics to get more oit of other players. Didn't happen while Shelvey was out. think it was finally dawning in rafa that playing the same system with colback or hayden in the shelvey role wasnt working. if we went back i'm sure he'd play it differently with the benefit of hindsight. wont make that mistake again if shelvey gets injured.

wyn davies Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 could still get players who would be suffice and not attached to a club for the run in, just need them for cover, must be a decent midfielder around to cover for Shelvey, maybe another Defoe type or whatever.

This is about the 10th deadline day where we've 'bid' for someone only for it to fail. The conference calls revelation which emerged during Keegangate still hits a nerve (where Ashley would effectively sabotage & scupper a deal..... "Whats X club want?" "This amount" "Offer Y amount and stick to it, the bid will fail). Insert Ashley & Charnley into the current conversation bubble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
