Just need GIMOC to come on and say no new signings and O'Hare is leaving for peanuts so that we can announce two new signings and a 4 year deal for Cal.

Would be funny if one of the ITK's on here was actually Mark Robins and he kept getting it wrong, because he actually had no idea who we were signing.

They're covering £30k p/w of his wages & then huge bonuses on promotion. I'd have liked him here too but not at that cost.

Ipswich? Us?

Remember last season? Many thought I lost the plot saying us and Luton in the final.

Long way to go yet. Anything can happen. Any side can get injuries that change their season.

I think if there is value in doing a deal today Doug will go for it but it has to the right one. He is a pragmatist and is, like Robins not going to make a rash purchase just because we are top 6. The player would have to improve on what we have, if he doesn't then what's the point of paying wages for the sake of having extra numbers. I would love to be able to strengthen this window and go again but the lack of movement in the Prem is having an adverse effect, the available loan players are not there. Sometimes its better to consolidate and see what happens, set your targets for the summer and do the business early. Its great that fans are frustrated on deadline day because no one has been signed, for so long its been whos being sold to balance the books, shows how far we've come in a short time.

Looks like Lille took that forward from Valerenga that Cardiff were close to signing.

Cannot believe that we’re in the playoff places and people are talking about “attacking the league next season”.

If you get a sniff in this division you have to take it.

Personally I think we will have a better chance next season than this. We won't take the first 1/3 of the season hoping and waiting for our team to gel. We could get off on a flyer. We might even make the top 2.

But that isn't me saying give up this season. I nailed my flag to the post weeks ago when others were saying mid table at best and I was saying 6th maybe 5th. I'm now 5th maybe 6th. Look at last season. Look at any season. The teams at or near the top are there for a reason. They win a lot more than they lose. Reach about 7th or 8th and below and they don't have the consistency. In just a few weeks we've gone from chasing to putting a gap between us and the sides we have just gone past. They have to play each other. Always points being dropped.

I think we are a better squad than last season but we are lacking in wide areas whether it be wingers or wide forwards

We’ll just adapt and revert to 3-4-1-2/the box again. It’s not ideal but the team is familiar with it still.

Yes but I'm not sure MR would be keen on having a short term loanee earning far more than any other player in the squad, doesn't send the right message to the likes of O'Hare etc.

Yes we have enough but the playoffs are still a lottery.

We looked like we were going to beat Luton but then Hamer got injured. I'm not getting my hopes up on winning the playoffs but I think we will make it to them.

I think a good pacy left back who can cross would be nice working the left with Wright. Bidwells been good but we still need better and Da Silva I don't think is the answer from what we've seen

Not ideal?

That formation had us in 20th place before the change. If we return to playing it on a regular basis the season is a write off.

Theyve just signed ANOTHER midfielder and are still getting Zaroury today. Seems a bit imbalanced. Delap is injured for rest of season and defence isnt the best. Going for the old 0-10-0 formation
