    Toast sandwiches are ace. Piece of dry toast, sprinkled with salt and pepper, between two pieces of un-toasted, buttered bread. Yum.

    Bury have signed Jordan Rossiter from Rangers today so perhaps they need to free up a space.

    I still don't understand why Allesani isn't at least making the bench.

    I don't understand this either. Scored and played well for the u23s in the week and not even on the bench today?

    Lack of investment in playing squad

    Didn't realise that he had been on trial so I stand corrected. I have made the same point though on several threads that, as you say, Rod was already out of the first team picture before he was sold so there was no pressing need to fill the gap.

    That's how football works though. The rumour was Larsen was coming in but it didn't happen for whatever reason.

    Lack of investment in playing squad

    Rod wouldn't have made the bench as Thompson has been promoted ahead of him. So can't really see how letting him go, for a fee no less, is a mistake?

    Deadline day thread

    Agree. Rod was surplus because Thompson was promoted to the first team ahead of him. Really don't understand why people are now complaining about getting a fee for a player who was realistically not even going to make the bench.....

    Lack of investment in playing squad

    Most of those were undisclosed fees and Holmes has only moved on loan. I think calling them 'great signings' is overstating it somewhat too. We beat several clubs to the signings of Ogogo and Brown and it looks as though Mason and Allisani are handy as well. Supposedly Sterling chose to come to...

    Lack of investment in playing squad

    Now who's talking nonsense. We desperately needed a left back and bought in two good players for that position, both on free transfers. We needed to strengthen at centre mid and we bought in Ogogo on a free. At our level, free transfers are the norm for the majority of clubs.

    Lack of investment in playing squad

    Like who? I've not seen any transfers of any particular note. It's not ridiculous at all. In league one and two far more players move on a free than for a fee.

    McNulty came for free. Transfer fees are no indication of quality.
