[b12345]

Why didn't we bring the 8m we got for Sheaf off the bench today?

[Deity]

It was King who set the target of promotion.

And we are on target so what is your point ?

 

[Sick Boy]

And we are on target so what is your point ?

That he needs to properly back his manager this window with the funds to finish the job. Lampard has voiced frustration with the size of the squad for weeks.

 

[hinckley cov]

This is the time you back the manager we’re still in a good position but we’re running on empty

We were ok going forward but no excuses for the shocking defending basic defending tracking players.

 

[hinckley cov]

Lampard has been hinting frustration at the squad size for a while now, I imagine he’s feeling pretty pissed off.

He didn’t seem to confident about players coming in in the interview on cwr hope I’m wrong

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I'm starting to wonder now if that piece in the Guardian used Lampard as the source, not King.

 

[Gint11]

Good time for the FA Cup to come really. Gives us all a breather from the pressure of the league.

 

[David O'Day]

That he needs to properly back his manager this window with the funds to finish the job. Lampard has voiced frustration with the size of the squad for weeks.

And it looks like he is, actual credible journalists are saying they expect us to spend.

It's the 4th

 

[David O'Day]

He just didn't answer as he like all managers never talk about transfer until they are done

 

[djr8369]

He didn’t seem to confident about players coming in in the interview on cwr hope I’m wrong

He said there’s no point talking about players until they are through the door. Probably wise with how many we’ve had fall through in recent years.

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Wagner came straight in ready for the blues today how about we go for someone from the MLS but like the blues did one of the quality players Evander? For the 10

 

[Sick Boy]

And it looks like he is, actual credible journalists are saying they expect us to spend.

It's the 4th

Let’s hope so.

Bobby Thomas clapping the fan's as he left the pitch after his red.
Am i reading too much into this, but don't recall seeing this previously.
Was that his "Swan Song"?

 

[Cally Fedora]

We’re assuming King has the means to back Lampard. We do lose a serious amount of cash operationally and we also now have a massive stadium complex to maintain and staff.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

There's the Sheaf money sitting there unused, but there is an insurance policy of the firesale that would follow not being promoted.

 

[SkyBlueDom26]

Why didn't we bring the 8m we got for Sheaf off the bench today?

Selling him and not replacing was criminal

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Selling him and not replacing was criminal

Happened so late in the window but the money offered was too much to turn down to be fair. I'm surprised there's been no noise around us going after a CM this month though.

We took in around 8 million from players sold and rec'd additional money when Vik signed for Arsenal ?

 

[David O'Day]

We’re assuming King has the means to back Lampard. We do lose a serious amount of cash operationally and we also now have a massive stadium complex to maintain and staff.

Also he can invest now as if it works he will get the money back on promotion. He has enough assets to fund this.

 

[RoboCCFC90]

I want Simms to start tmrw but I hope wright gets a goal at some point to shut up some idiots!

How was Wright today out of interest?

 

[David O'Day]

How was Wright today out of interest?

Looked a bit lost playing in the deeper role which isn't his position

Reading too much into it.

Dan Neil has been mentioned

I think it was more him being fired up

 

[HadjiChippo]

Esse just came on for Palace

 

[Chris1987]

Esse just came on for Palace

They also just brought on a 16 YO. Their squad is down to the bare bones

 

[Jamieb87ccfc]

Think we genuinely need Esse, Piroe, Neil and maybe Castledine. Piroe gives us Championship experience and goals up front and a different option to what we have.
Esse has a good ceiling and stood out for Milwall last season.
Neil knows the league as well and is a battler, competition for grimes, Sheaf replacement.
Castledine as competition for Rudoni more of an O’Hare 10 so different style.

 

[David O'Day]

I think it was more him being fired up

I thought it was more him having to do something to stop himself getting back involved

 

[Cally Fedora]

Agreed. But something has to fundamentally change the losses. It’s entirely possible that £8m has gone on gas, electricity, wages, plumbing, painting etc etc etc

 

[SBT]

I don’t think there’s any point selling Sheaf when we did unless it was to generate funds for reinforcements in areas of greater need.

 

[JSL]

And subsidised beer and free pies

 

[Cally Fedora]

And subsidised beer and free pies

And people still leave early

 

[long way home]

You have got to think Doug is non stop trying to get things done. I understand its not easy but its going to be impossible to defend if we cant get at least 3 in. We are desperate for new energy and more pace in the group.
