You are allowed to praise him for the great stuff he’s done (which I have) whilst simultaneously be annoyed with our transfer business.

He won’t do that. He’s only played Wright down the middle. In the game he and Simms started against Luton we switched to 4-4-2 to keep Wright up topWe’re not dependant on that. Wright would play left with either BTA or Simms up front. Or play BTA left.
nonsense. we had no time to replace him.Wrexham boss admits that the move for Sheaf wasn't as sudden as many believed it to be...
"He's someone we've been looking at for a while and like ever, negotiations can drag out."
Wrexham boss makes Coventry City transfer admission as he issues 'class' verdict
Latest Coventry City news from CoventryLive brings you what the Wrexham chief has had to say about a deal the club did with the Sky Blueswww.coventrytelegraph.net
trolling again are weno
nonsense. we had no time to replace him.
If there had been interest in Sheaf that had been communicated to us ahead of time, it would have made sense to have a contingency plan in case we were to sell him.trolling again are we
it can be both true that they have mentioned him to us for a while and the offer they made which was vastly higher than our valuation of the player came suddenly at the end of the window
Ok, if you say so. Football isn't FIFA or Football Manager.If there had been interest in Sheaf that had been communicated to us ahead of time, it would have made sense to have a contingency plan in case we were to sell him.
The bid came in Saturday morning, if we had a target lined up, 2 days is more than enough to get a deal over the line. Its poor planning nothing else.
An insult because you can't take an opinion LOLOk, if you say so. Football isn't FIFA or Football Manager.
I get it, you're life revolves around trolling on a forum to prove your self worth. I hope you find something soon to fill to very obvious gap in your life,
Have a good day and I hope you find a working stream for the game on Saturday,
Any actual evidence to back this up? Given we'd bid for CBs long before the Sheaf bid was made that story lacks legs.It looks pretty likely that Sheaf was sold in the end to fund the Woolfenden deal as it seemed at the time...
quite possibly. it seems odd to sell him and not have anyone lined upIt looks pretty likely that Sheaf was sold in the end to fund the Woolfenden deal as it seemed at the time...
If someone knocks on my door and offers me above market price for my house, I would not have a specific plan in place for the next house I buy. I might even bank the money and move into rented for 6 months and assess my options.If there had been interest in Sheaf that had been communicated to us ahead of time, it would have made sense to have a contingency plan in case we were to sell him.

That cant be true as people on here were telling me that the scouting team would have contingency targets if we sold any of our squadIf someone knocks on my door and offers me above market price for my house, I would not have a specific plan in place for the next house I buy. I might even bank the money and move into rented for 6 months and assess my options.
I suspect the plan was not to sell Sheaf, until the deal became too good to turn down in Frank and Dougs view.
It looks suspiciously like we had hawked MVE, Rudoni and Thomas to raise money and eventually had an offer for Sheaf which we accepted based on not getting offers for the others near what we thought they were worth. Big bids for Hughes and Rushworth may have been based on a big sale in my opinion, or that's how it looks to me anyway
It's crazy how many people assume if we didn't sign anyone it's because we didn't have targetsWe had targets lined up. We bid what we thought they were worth. The clubs wanted more. We walked away. Doesn’t mean we don’t have the cash to spend, just means we don’t want to waste it.

Several have an agenda and poo poo anything else that doesn't fit in with their agenda without making any valid points.It's crazy how many people assume if we didn't sign anyone it's because we didn't have targets
Long term - no effect. All players leave eventually. You're unlikely to be unsettled mid season, unless you're not playing (unlikely) or we're struggling and in no contention for the top 6. I've said to friends that there's likely to be a big turnover in the summer if we don't go up this season - but we ought to have a serious amount of money to play with as a result of losing the likes of Wright, MVE and Rudoni next summer. The short, medium and longer term future of our club has rarely looked brighter imo.I'm of the same opinion as JSL on this one and I'm not sure what the effect on Said players will be long-term.

Literally no one has an agenda. Everyone wants what’s best for the club. Everyone has an opinion on what they think is best to achieve our ambitions. I thought it was an average window and the squad is paper thin in certain areas. Only time will tell if I am right or I am wrong.Several have an agenda and poo poo anything else that doesn't fit in with their agenda without making any valid points.
I said at the time that palace were waiting for a winger to sign and it never happened, so I imagine they pulled the plug
I think we rejected the MVE approach from Wolfsburg, which didn't meet our valuation. We then offered him to Wolves apparently (possibly among others, who knows) but they had other targets so we were left to sell Sheaf, who we now know that Wrexham had been interested in for some time. I think we were only buying Hughes, for example, if we'd sold MVE and being unable to move him messed up the window. Of course King isn't going to say that directly but looking at the window as a whole that is my reading of it.Any actual evidence to back this up?

If we needed money we would have sold Milan to Wolfsburg.

So basically you have no evidence of this at all. Ok
Apologies for the late response man, i've been away. I missed the conversation, went on with what?@Jimmy87 anything you can tell us about what went on? I believe you said an older player was lined up, any idea who that was?
I haven't heard anything to be honest.Now dust has settled a little , guess got to look at big picture.
stadium the most important purchase, ever. But does feel like a little step back/stagnate on pitch to go forward in future. Wonder what Lampard thinks on that, given he will want here and now.
sheaf and Rapha moves in isolation best for both, however the lack of replacements is bizzare and has now left us very short. We must must be planning to use KKH and Brau as backup wings.
be intersting what @Jimmy87 has heard, it wasn’t for want of trying, I’m pretty sure we tried for Smallbone from small snippet I heard , not sure in what capacity but obviously went to Millwall. frustrating we have been left really short on wings, Lampard can’t be happy.
we really need to cross our fingers until Jan injury and suspension wise.
International break come at right time!
