So If my memory is right. We agreed a deal to bring him here in January but allowed Peterborough to look for a replacement. They couldn’t find one in time and as such wanted to either increase the deal or pull out completely. Keep in mind posh already said they would charge more in the summer

As it was already expensive we didn’t want to increase it but did, only for posh to still say no. We then agreed they could keep him if they paid his wages, we didn’t pay any instalment's until he was with us and we had a reduced price on him.

McAnthony said that he has promised Ferguson not to sell any of the players and undermine the play off push. Thus the only way a deal could be done was through a loan back.

At the time I would have much rather had the player but as it turns out, and given that EMC’s best position seems to be hard to accommodate alongside Haji Wright, I can’t see how we would have played him anyway.

At the start of the season, people were creaming themselves over our strength in depth, well fuck me, we're down to bare bones very quickly and looking ragged-arsed
The whole shitshow is a shambles and King & co need to step up fucking soon.

Goblin be honest are you an alt account? You spend an awful lot of time on here for someone who only signed up in June!! It usually takes people a few years of the nonsense on here to get addicted!!

Biggest summer balls up was signing BTA instead of a CM . The urgency of the CM issue was obvious to virtually everyone with the exception of those responsible for recruitment and final purchase decisions.

I know it's a pipe dream but I'd love us to bring in James Milner. He would be perfect, professional, experienced and the captain we need.

No first account. Sounds silly but used to be worried about signing up to online accounts, so would view this for information. When I started my X I thought fuck it

Whatever anyone says

a midfield of Eccles, Allen and Torp is the worst in the division by a considerable margin. All utter dross

If they aren’t added to we’re in real danger of dropping the 2nd half of the season

Sums it up when sheaf’s out for 6 weeks and I don‘t think we’ll miss him on current form, no pressure on who the first signing will be, but it‘ll tell us a lot

Any idea how long EMC is out for @Saddlebrains

Bristol city will have been 3 weeks since injury
Click to expand...
Lampard said Haji would be out for 2-3 weeks and EMC ‘longer’ so a minimum of 4 weeks from now. We’ve had some tough luck with injuries and this Sheaf news adds to it.

Not forgetting he was one of the best midfielders in the league last year? Oh yeah let’s weaken our already weak midfield even more

There was no big money offers in the summer anyway, was just made up on here

If someone offers the money that was being discussed, you have to consider it.

Hopefully they’ll both be in and around it in the next couple weeks.
