Really? Let’s just spend spend spend then if it is of no consequence. Why doesn’t everyone else just do it as well? Ridiculous

Really encouraged by the additions. We played well, especially second half. But this season of all seasons we just don’t need the extra games so on balance I’m glad we’re out. Add a midfielder in in the next 2-3 weeks and we’ll be difficult to stop

Some minutes for the new wingers. Job done

Sensible team.

3rd round was a home win against Bolton. One of the coldest I’ve ever been at a game.

Be disappointed if Doug doesn’t get them all done 🙄

He’s just not that good. He’s a top Championship striker but that’s about it. The Portuguese league is fairly weak. Anyway, I don’t care - we’ve got our cash from his move to Arsenal.

And won nothing.

They said Prochwitz wouldn’t come.

It’s not the refereeing that is the issue in the prem. it’s just that the football is incredibly dull. 80% of every game is 10 yard passes exchanged across the back 4.

Was going to write lots and lots about this but didn’t want to turn it into an Esse.

Must admit I’m not keen on Castledine. Certainly not as a permanent. I’m hoping the Neil rumours have some basis in fact. Midfield has to be the next priority. Two there and I think we’re good

Wilson doesn’t sound really viable. Two wingers good. Centre mid depth must be next. Bizarre really when all our issues are at the other end of the pitch but we do need wing cover

Which bit is classed as his failure? Us being top of the league? Us having a hugely improved coaching set up? Or us finally having our own ground?

Look at this a different way. Starting with whoever is third someone has to win 3 games more than we do. The further you go down the league the more they have to win in excess of us. Then consider we are talking about the championship - an utter dogfight of a league. Should give us all hope.

Overall assessment has to be that we have done fantastically well. Lampard and his coaching staff have given us the extra 10% we needed to be top two contenders in an absolute quagmire of a league. Grimes has been a transformative signing. Biggest plus is the obvious squad togetherness. Biggest...

I don’t think you realise how complicated it is. None of us knows if we actually have any funds to spend either.

Especially as KKH is very possibly the better player. Very odd

Can we stop comparing assumed cash in for transfers against money we have to spend. It’s never worked like that and never will. A huge chunk of incoming fees have to keep us running and in business. The correlation between incoming fees and available cash to spend on players will never exist
