Chill out. You are being way over the top. We have money. There was an offer made for Bamford, taken away granted but it was made. Absolutely nobody is saying gamble the clubs future away. A few smart signings and a couple of loans would not bankrupt us you are being ridiculous. We have been...

No I haven't, I said 4-5 and still think that. I just pointed to Burnley to show that teams do make reinforcements in January and it doesn't mean upsetting a squad. That argument doesn't wash for me. Surely all the players and coaches want the best chance of promotion. Having a 2nd player in key...

3 minimum wouldn't be a disaster I just don't get the idea that adding bodies would rock the boat. Our players aren't thick or totally spineless. I'm sure they would prefer to have a better chance at promotion. Bar a marquee signing, which I don't think is on the cards, adding a few is the wise...

That's the thing, I'd love improvements obviously but that's for the summer. Now we just need players that can cover without us having to shift our entire play style. Round pegs in round holes as mentioned above. There must be a willing LB loanee that could actually get up and down the same way...

Get a loan in someone who can attack surely. I agree we need to be careful not to load our squad with players that won't cut it if we go up. But the drop off and style shift if we loose Dasilva is way to jarring

4 for me maybe I'm an imbecile to think we need cover at LB DM and 2 wingers but I think Frank feels the same way. Let's stick with the little old Cov mindset though. We'll be fine to run Tats into the ground... Grimes never gets injured.. yeah Bidwell can definitely be adequate cover. Let's...

2 on loan 2 smart buys would be enough. A 6 month loan from a prem club wouldn't have to promise them the world. Let them come in and try earn a spot. They can have cup games because I doubt we will be prioritising that this year. They will get minutes. we really only have 2 wingers and 1 LB...

No not intentionally but I bet plenty on here expected Woolfenden to walk into the team. Some times it can just focus players. It's Mad we had no cover for MvE until this season. Sames happening with Grimes now. Needs sorting, would be smart to get a youngster with at least some of his...

Depth though wasn't it. Kept the others honest. We may not get injuries, we might be fine as we are but the risk is a mad one to take. We are so far ahead of the pack, not getting bodies in as cover is a crazy gamble considering the pay off if we get promoted. Our position and play style must...

Nah, Bidwell has been a great servant for this club but he no longer fits what we need. Brau doesn't look disciplined enough from the small cameos he's had. Nothing from how he's been used in the last few months makes me think they have confidence in him. Loan him out. Bidwell may not want to...

Well Lampard wanted Bamford so I could see another striker in. BTA has played best covering the space Rudoni left. Could loan in a prospect with actual pace. Something different than we have. Or if we see BTA and Haji as a strikers then we only really one LW and one RW, why not get in back up...

I really rate Dasilva this season but what happens if he gets knackered? Brau looks so raw and could be loaned out himself, Bidwell really doesn't fit our needs for a progressive wingback. Surely we could loan someone in? Feels like wed be able to give loan players cup games and a chance to...

4-5 isn't that mental. Rotating and backing up what we have. 2-3 loans and a couple of quality signings isn't excessive. Need to get out of the little old Cov mindset. Top teams have depth in their squads. We are doing amazing but have been very lucky with injuries over the last 3 seasons...

Also saying it will unsettle our squad is just negative guess work. I mean having Woolf as competition has spurred on Thomas and Kitch. I don't think any of or starters are thin skinned. If having players in the door meant a better chance of becoming a Prem player next year they would snap your...

Personally think that is utter bollocks! Top teams have strong squads, we currently have a very thin squad on a bit of a knife edge if key players get injured. We would be screwed if Dasilva or Grimes went out long-term. Burnley added 6 to their squad in Jan 25. It's just want is required to...

Am I being really naive thinking if we are still well ahead of the pack come January, we will basically have the pick of available Prem loans and a huge queue of agents knocking on our door saying their players would love to sign for us? Is 4-5 in that big a leap?

I meant more make better of your situation. You might live and die in these towns but you can't let that beat you down, there are still nuggets of joy to be had.

Could be the anthem for some of the energy vampires on this forum

I get that but the line that changes it for me is: "It never happens for people like us, you know. Well, nothing ever happened on it's own" For me it's your life might feel like shit, you might live in a craphole but that's your life and there isn't any point in wallowing. Make the most of...

That's not how I read that. I feel like it's about Having hope and something to enjoy despite maybe not the most glamorous surroundings, staying positive. Rudy is different. Pointless either way as new chants off here never take off. The standard of chants has tanked for me, would be nice to...
