Frank saying nothing imminent
LI agree with the improvement.
The transition from MR to FL has seen so many improvements across the pitch.
JDS looks a different player.
Eccles, Torp, and Rudi look like new signings.
EMC and BTA the same.
Wright has made no improvement AT ALL from the player we signed. No progression at all in his time at the club. Still a great player in flashes that goes missing for long periods at a time. The team has grown, he hasn't. For that reason, I wouldn't lose any sleep if we were to cash in a decent offer on him.
Even if we dont immediately replace him in Jan, with BTA coming back, and hopefully a winger or 2 coming in, we do have goals coming from elsewhere on the pitch. He hasnt scored in week's anyway so cant say losing his goals will cost us dearly. The goals he has scored this season anyway were in a 7-1 win, a 4-0 win, a 5-0 win and 1 against Norwich that hit him rather than him scoring a goal. The Norwich goal aside, he's not scored crucial goals in crucial games. Hes got on the scoresheet in easy matches where half the team joined in too.

This.That’s not what he said ….. he avoided directly answering the question by talking about until deals are done they are not done etc …

Not like AFCcoventry to bend the truthThat's a little bit more reassuring than 'nothing imminent'
Yes Doug should have had a couple lined up ready to goIt would be nice to get 1-2 in quickly, you’d hope considering we missed out on a few in the summer window that we’d have some bits prepped and ready. All for quality over quantity and that deals don’t always go smoothly but we’ve known our position for sometime and particularly with the drop in performances with illness and fatigue it would be a great step forward to bring new faces in.
FL wouldn't say anyway and it doesn't mean Doug is not working on deals. We will find out soon enough what Doug has managed to do.

Hope it’s not left to the last day with Doug saying we tried but just couldn’t get a deal done.But because it is January the selling club drags deals out to induce panic and drive the price up. It could be the end of January before we get targets over the line.

So do I but January is a difficult window. More teams want to buy than sell and they want as much as they can get if they do sell
Then he should have brought in some more bodies in the summer. I doubt Lampard was attracted here without the promise of investment yet here he is after two windows still working with Robins team.
Lampard cant be happy with that and failure to bring in at least a couple of quality reinforcements is going to cause issues.

We are too, Franks reputation is rebuilding quickly.
We will bring in 2-3 more this window.
The club want him to sign a new improved deal. Doesn’t sound like there are issues to me ….
It is so easy isn't it, just pick the phone up. Many transfers these days take more than one window.
I think it is Dean Austin who works on them, Doug just rubber stamps them from a financial point of view.
Good news that Thomas got cleared of all chargesDoug is much more involved than that

Simms 7 goals, 8 gamesAgreed. I dont think BTA is a PL starter, but his energy and commitment off the bench would be great.
Simms can barely get a game in the Championship, no need to carry that on in the PL. Hes zero chance of making it as a PL striker. Even if we break even, use the funds to put towards the wage bill.

Which makes the dropping of him for an out of sorts Wright all the more baffling.Simms 7 goals, 8 games

What I am liking about Simms this time is he has been dropped and instead of letting it hit his confidence he pops up and scores a lovely goal. That is different to the Simms of the past who may have let it knock him out of his stride.I don’t think it’s baffling at all.
Frank clearly rates Wright more highly and in addition Wright has been attracting interest from other clubs and I’m sure Frank is keen to retain him until at least the summer.
Therefore it is only natural ( if a little harsh on Simms ) that Frank continues to be loyal to Wright.
Yes but he started off saying nothing Imminent. He was swaying away from the question for sure.
Anyone who listened could tell he didn’t sound confident. It’s just the usual cope on here.
He sounded to me that he had a cold and wasn’t feeling wellAnyone who listened could tell he didn’t sound confident. It’s just the usual cope on here.

Fuck yes
We will hear nothing from the club until a deal has been signed.Frank saying nothing imminent
NoLooking at our obvious need for cover on the right wing, is this the year we finally land Andrew Driver?
