The rumour is it's: Has Bean

He isn't fully fit at the moment, let alone in the future? How is signing Reda going to move us forward. He is months away from playing.

Could be a good acquisition. Regarding previous reputations, Kevin Drinkell was a class striker at every club he played for. He looked class at Coventry for about 5 games then sank like a stone. Everyone wanted Martin out of the club last summer, now he is Mowbray's worst sale. Let's face...

Same here. To go from non league into the old First Division, straight into the first team and look like you had been playing there all your life says a lot about his quality. He was a great servant to England as well.

It wasn't swanky. He was just a working class lad and an amateur footballer.

I think he actually had a Ford Capri. But nice anecdote.

Graham Withey, entertainment personified. The prototype for Garry Mabbutt's knee.

Or do you mean Waggott?

It was exciting and a pleasure watching Armstrong last season. Yes it would be great to have him back. But I would love him to get his break at Newcastle and establish himself. I watch football to see good football and watch good players. The English game needs British players to break...

Panic over Martin being released and Stokes needing an operation. Yes I think Martin deserved a new contract, but the rub was Mowbray saw him as a squad player and his wage was too high. I think Vincelot was in the same situation. So at this level you have to shuffle your pack, often lighten...

How many accounts you running now Nick? :-)

So lets talk realistic targets within our budget. Who should we have signed and who should be our targets?

I thought your previous post would be your last on this thread?

Once we signed Reid it was unlikely

I know suggesting black people are lazy and don't like work. Perhaps Bruce the Boot is Ron Atkinson

The only problem with your theory is players and agents can afford to wait. Also Premiership squads and Championship squads take shape late. TM can have 5 loans but they still come out of the budget and have to be paid for. This pool of resources is potentially far better than the dross he...

January is a different situation. Mowbray knew we lacked experience and bodies. He brought in who he thought might be able to do a job out of the limited choice he had. You either push on or you don't. It is your last roll of the dice. In the summer it is different, once you have spent the...

TM would have liked players in earlier too. But we are not alone, plenty of sides are in our situation and still waiting too make a few signings. Getting the right players is not a simple process. What you don't want is panic buying. I would rather give our own youngsters a chance.

I think TM has been trying to source a CB on a permanent deal. I also think he has missed out on a few due to budget and or location. I am sure he is prepared for this scenario and will have loan targets.

Yes two defenders are priority and another striker. In fact three defenders would be ideal. A hard tackling CM might be useful too.
