We can't sign any loans until Jan
We can't sign any loans until JanFeeling Doug will change tact on loans and let Lampard move with some of his contacts. It worked for him at Derby so no doubt he will be pushing for the same.
We shouldn't be leaving til today really. That's the problem.I reckon one or two fell over today. Also sounds like sheaf was very last minute. Right call to sell still (for him and us). Will be interesting to see where a lot of the young prem lads have gone out on loan
Would have liked a couple more in, but we're no worse off than when we started today.
That's superb tbf
Sheaf has gone. You mean Grimes I think?If anyone apart from MVE or Kitch get an injury. We're fucked.
JDS = Bidwell
Thomas = Lati
Sheaf = Allen
Torp = Eccles
Rudi = ????
EMC = Brau
Saka = BTA
Wright = Simms
Thats a HUGE drop off in quality in EVERY position bar RB and LCB. We all just need to cross everything and hope to fuck we dont get more than 1 injury at a time. Swap out 1 player we could manage. 2 or 3 at once and were fucked.

Como have released Deli Alli.
Frank took him to Everton, but i can't see that really happening...can it ?
I'd recall him just because of that.
No. Sad story as he’s been through a lot but noComo have released Deli Alli.

I would actually take him but wages will be the issue with any of those signings.Como have released Deli Alli.

Of course, but sometimes things can't be sorted.This is the whole purpose of a recruitment team. They should in theory have many many players identified. They have a lot of time to sort this out my friend.
This is it. All the people saying we've kept our squad together that finished 5th last season.... that's OK, if you dont include all the other variables of other clubs strengthening. We've almost tread water and let everyone around us catch up and/or overtake us.I said I would make my judgement after the window closes and truth is it’s been poor. I’d say at best we have slightly improved, but all the other teams have definitely gained on us. Very odd from all involved.
Terrified of an EMC injury. Either have to change system or Haji goes out left and Simms has to play lots of minutes.GK: Rushworth, Wilson, Dovin
RB: MVE, KKH
LB: Dasilva, Brau, Bidwell
CB: Thomas, Kitching, Woolfenden, Lati
CM: Grimes, Torp, Eccles, Allen, Andrews
No. 10: Rudoni
LW: EMC,
RW: Tats
ST: Wright, BTA, Simms
No he wouldn'tWe are.
Yes we've sorted CB.
But we've lost a midfielder and a winger, and not replaced them.
You can't describe Sheaf as a fringe player, he was a first team player and would have made 30 odd appearances this season.
To be fair if we'd have kept Sheaf this window would be fine.We shouldn't be leaving til today really. That's the problem.
How can we rotate players when we have 2 recognised wingers ? We’re relying on BTA playing out of position & a LB from the 2nd division in Spain covering for EMC. Massive gamble that was not needed when we had bodies in the buildingWe've let no one go who was going to get any minutes, so relax.
The outgoings make perfect sense.
We are thin as a squad, and could of done with a couple more bodies, but that's wasn't a reason to hang on to players that were never going to feature, their careers are best served by moving to clubs that will play them.
Moving forward we are going to have to manage players by using rotation when possible to limit risk of injury, and we are going to have to rely on luck to keep our better players on the grass till the January window allows reinforcements.
Its not ideal, but it is what it is.
At least we have cover at CH and for both Fullbacks now.
I did mean grimes yes! My brain is fried from today!Sheaf has gone. You mean Grimes I think?

Did we lose the old admin last season or something? The announcements from Grimes onwards have been mehOur admin is so damn boring compared to like every club.
No he wouldn't
I disagree I couldn’t care less how they are announced.I'm also annoyed that as fans we live for signings don't we, it's a fun thing! We only had fucking 4 all summer and even then they managed to completely buzz kill the last one.
