How did MVE today any sign of complacency or big bollocks after the fall through of his deal?

Someone please tell me the purpose of Dean Austin. Clearly have money to play with, yet we’re always so slow to act on anything.

Two days left of the window to rectify this mess at the back - only summer I can think worse than this is the one when Mowbray got sacked (promise I’m not bedwetting)

We don't know who is responsible for closing deals. You are assuming it's Austin. It could just be our targets are not available for the prices we want to pay.

Doug said at the forum after Robbins sacking he negotiates the deals, Austin & the team bring him the players they have identified

Austin’s job is to identify players. He doesn’t sign them as well

They do. Still think he lacks a little quality on the ball considering his reported asking price.

Probably me overreacting tbf, just think this window has been poor. Not sure whether it’s the comms though.

Feel like Robins was very open about the business he wanted to do over the summer and where, whereas Frank doesn’t seem to let much slip.

I’d be looking at bringing in Wolfenden and Hughes. Could be the difference between 7th and 2nd.

It's not every game he doesn't make subs

He would have his reasons today and it's not like we were parking bus by end of game. We still got ball down heir end and could have got a winner too. Sub or no sub

It is most games to be honest that the subs tend to come fairly late

I definitely think it’s hughes or bust, can genuinely see us signing nobody else

He was poor today, particularly second half (not alone in that of course).

Appreciate we seem to be going all in on Hughes and would imagine there must have been some encouragement but £10m plus seems far too much even after today’s defending. Would feel happier getting Woolfenden in at a reasonable price and taking a chance on Pye at Stockport.

Feel like we need two CB to challenge Bobby and Kitch and not sure Lati does that.

Could get those two for less than £5m and keep money back to strengthen the wings.

I’d be relieved if we walked away from the Hughes deal. Just looks a slightly above average champ CH to me.

If we sign nobody then I want to be critical of bling, but he has major credit for buying the stadium

I like the idea of getting two CBs and the suggestions. While I don’t think it would be five million, definitely he cheaper than Hughes is looking atm
