Fucking hell sorry! Sorry for speaking. Somebody said maybe Doug would be happy with 3rd place. Somebody else replied for what reason exactly would that be. I tried to give a "maybe, for this reason?!?" kind of reasoning. Now ive got a shit load of judgy replies saying "tHe PrIzE iS tHe Pl NoT...

Yeah, all 3 teams will cash in on the big time money the following season, but champions and runners up will get a few hundred grand prize money. Whereas the play-off winners will get considerably more for TV rights, ticket revenue etc etc etc from the 3 play-off games. Hence why people dont...

Im not sure if you know how this works, but you said our best "11" then named 14 players. Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

Is the prize money for the Play-off winner not greater than 1st/2nd? They say its the richest prize in football so would suggest he/the club would profit more for a play-off win than a league win? Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

Surely nobody on here really thinks/believes doug bought the ground out of his own pocket? Yes, he's bought the club and offset the debts, but do you really think he bought the ground out of his own kitty? Come on, get real! Whilst he gets a lot of plaudits for making it happen, saying he cant...

Whilst I agree, walks where? Because if he fails to take us up from the position we were in surely his managerial career is done? So many people already had him down as a shit manager, failure would be the cherry on top of the icing on top of the cake surely? Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

Simms only has purple patches, it'll end sooner or later. Not a chance he'd keeps up this form for the entirety of the run in. The only positive is BTA coming back. But if im being completely honest, id rather him at No10 for Rudi or on the right for Saka more than up front (unless of course we...

OK! I wasn't joking about them playing probably the best CM in the division on the wing constantly. Youre right. Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

I couldnt care less. It was a tongue in cheek post. Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

What do they need a new winger for? Cant they just keep playing Gus out of position? Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

Exactly. Take a punt on higher wages, knowing youre saving on the transfer fee. Its almost like he's robbing Peter to pay Paul. Didn't want to pay Bamfords wages, knowing full well any new signing will demand a fee AND still need wages. And if he thinks paying Paddy Bamford £40k a week is too...

Only time will tell i suppose. Though, the way id read it was that the wages he would want, we could spend elsewhere, more than having somebody better lined up. I think we're all guessing because Doug will be the only one who actually knows why he said no. Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

I honestly think, that unless we can convince a proven PL player to drop down a level for a few months, we should ONLY use the loan market this window for that exact reason. Even if we sign a winger like George on loan, he's still not likely to impress so much to get in to the Chelsea team...

Im not wound up. Im not ready to burst. Just saying it how I see it. Were 5 short. 3 of which from the summer. 2-3 now. Had we not been short in the summer, we wouldn't be so light now. We are. Realistically we need 5 or 6. Reality is we'll be lucky to get 3. I will happily eat my own words if...

Youre right. Were not going to get 5 in, its not realistic. But it is realistically what we need. Which is why ive said all along, we were 2 or 3 signings light in the summer. Meaning 2 or 3 additions now would be all we need. But people were so blinded by the stadium announcement, they failed...

Im calm. Happy in the knowledge that all we need is 1 signing. Easy. Even Cov cant fuck up 1 signing. Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

Fuck it then. We only need 1 signing. But, he needs, as a minimum, to be, better in goal than Dovin, can cover RB (so needs to be as quick as MVE) cover LB, cover CH, so as good in the air as Bobby, CM, so has got to be able to pick the ball up from the defence and split the opposition with 1...

No, we need 4, like I said! 6 if were being greedy, like I said! But we also cant skimp this window by bringing in 1 player to cover all bases like some are suggesting. Sent from my SM-S711B using Tapatalk

Exactly this. Everyone on here talking about "but his wage expectations will be too high" and "i can see high wages being an issue". We get this right now, and this time next season we'll be a PL team. And the few extra quid pinching that seen us miss signing Bamford, will be chump change. Get...
