Didn't the window only open about half an hour ago? i.e. 10minutes before the op?

And it hasn't opened yet. So, what's the problem?

A) It opens tommorrow.
B) Waggott went on C+W last Friday to say that the Hulse deal is off as he's now back in QPR's first team plans.

So, no bullshitting really...

Hulse really isn't in QPRs first team plans. I think Cisse, Zamora, Bothroyd, Helgusson, Macheda, Makie & Tommy Smith may all have something to say about that. If that's our excuse for not getting him, its total bullshit. More likely that he turns us flat down.

That's changed with Hughes' appointment over there-he's started/been on the bench most of the time since he came in, so would definitely suggest they plan on using him.

Think the point is that last week they said they had two lined up and ready to come and now they are saying they are now looking.

They probably did, a week ago-and the goalposts may well have been moved in that time. Deals collapse at the last hurdle for all sorts of reasons.

Not least that these players probably watched us be totally shit the last two games and thought 'why the fook would I go there?'

Unfortunately, a lot of City fans don't see it that way.

Personally, I would rather not hear anything until the deal is done, but that way you still get moaning...."they're not telling the fans anything", etc, etc.

We've been hearing the same bollox since last summer,it amazes me how fans on here still believe their bullshit. We're all but relegated and they STILL haven't got enough in! Are people on here still that gullable?

The goalposts might have been the financial cornerstones of the deal; namely if we are expected to be parted from any cash whatsoever. A tramp can press his nose against a Ferrari showroom window all day long....

My problem is this:

Transfer Window: One striker sold, none bought in
Loan Window: No striker brought in.
Emergency Loan Window: ...


Seriously? Give me a break.

Do you want a striker SISU?

You've had two REAL opportunities so far to find one.

I hardly think that the calibre of player needed to rescue us from this probable relegation is likely to be found now.

It's like going to the Harrods sale 5 mins before closing time on the last day.

Nah, forum members will never buy it. Best stick with the "lies damned lies" attitude. People on here are more comfortable with that.

King and Juke gone

Niemly and in on loan for half a season, and McDonald who still isnt fit

yep, pretty sure we are worse off in this position than last season when we finished near the drop zone

what are SISU expecting other than where we are now...

Haha, ludicrous suggestion I know! I don't blame people for being cynical, but still, like I said-deals collapse at the last minute in all areas of business and with clubs from top to bottom of the ladder, we are no exception.

Funny though. He was doing brilliantly, but then Mowbray let him go home for a few days. When he came back he stopped scoring.

I reckon they cloned him and sent back a duff one.

The real Armstrong has been sporting a thick ginger beard and been sat in the stands at St. James's Park watching the Newcastle matches.

But he is not an Honest person don't you know.
Some on here have a fixation with him and are always waiting for him to fall.

I can't stand the bloke.

Always white knighted by a fair amount of fans yet he was the reason we were sold to SISU.

Great logic that.
