We thought we could do better …. We certainly don’t need players for the sake of it.

Sounds like modern football to me. We are very happy to tempt players to leave their existing clubs to join us. Not sure why players leaving us is any different.

Most managers are happy to have loans and Robins was no different. We were also skint so he didn’t have much choice !

It’s obvious and natural. We can only present ourselves as a stepping stone opportunity for players. I don’t have any issue with those players then wanting to make that next step. That was the deal they were sold. Whilst I understood Robins end of season comments on wanting players here for...

Of course it has. who do you think appointed Prime Ministers and Presidents in the past ? The general public ? No it was traditional media barons like Rupert Murdoch.

Anyway back to this signing ……

This is just normal transfer business. Clubs have 2 or 3 players they are keeping warm at the same time to try and ensure they land one. You can’t put all your eggs in one basket. In return players have 2 or 3 clubs their agents are keeping warm to ensure they get the best move for them. some...

That actually reads like a high hit rate to be fair. I think it feels less than that because of the high profile failures in defence and the fact that young players are less consistent.

😂

We don’t know that yet do we ?? If we announce a new right winger tomorrow does that make him wrong ???

Bellamy did more to get us relegated than almost any other player. Couldn’t finish for toffee that season. Hughes was a bang average footballer, awful touch, the less said about him the better …..

Just wow

It’s not about whether you own your stadium or not but whether you can demo to the EFL you have an agreement in place to play your home fixtures over multiple seasons.

It more likely suggests he needs support to fund securing the stadium, which is far more important than any individual signing.

Utter bollocks.

So just making stuff up !

The irony for me is that of the signings we have made it’s the UK based players that have disappointed more than the foreign imports. They know the English league. No language issues, no cultural challenges. why ?

The same Pod that suggested earlier this season we drop Wright, flog him for £2m, because BTA was the better option ????

If you actually watch Bidwell closely during a match he’s very limited. He switches off at the back post when defending crosses, his distribution from deep positions is poor and predictable and his crossing is sometimes fabulous and sometimes awful. He does give it his all, and seems a good guy...
