I dont think we should be getting excited about the playoffs until we’ve won more than we’ve lost.

Add it to the list:

* Company finance
* Stadium acquisition

* Failed rugby clubs
* Pitch Installation/Ground Repair
* Back injuries
* Football Management
* Elite football tactics

* Monkey butlers

There's loads of others as well to be fair. We're experts at everything on here.

I know a young lad at another championship club. When it’s a loan, you don’t really talk to the player outside of where he’ll play, get a vibe of him and the club.

If it was a obligation you’d sort the contract but as it’s an option, you’d more just be asking if you can would you be willing and where would you ball park be not the real discussion you’d expect.

Sounds more likely Lampard doesn’t like him if he doesn’t come

Does he want to join us, can you put a word in?

I said the meeting didn’t go well then told he’s on 30k a week

maybe we don’t want him here because the 30k could be spent elsewhere

Maybe Lampard didn’t like him as a person

who knows

FL should be all over this signing because he has got the group showing some togetherness so anyone coming in has to be the right character. Secondly, contract length and structure would be known in fact its the 1st thing asked once you target a potential target.

So that is bollocks about how his contract is structured. This will be down to not a good feel from either party, not cash.

I'm not saying thats what I've been told

I've been told he has something about him

It's just my personal view. We're injury ravaged, he's been here 8 months and has got on the pitch for 2 minutes once

Its not helped him with how tight the games have been recently. Far easier to bring on a young player when we are comfortably winning

Tbh, we can no longer afford to shop at Barnsley, Huddersfield or P'boro, they charge us £4million+

Now we need loans who arnt getting starts, and we need the owning club to pay the players wages and transport costs.

GIMOC lets himself down by shooting his wad as soon as he hears a rumour and posting as if it's a done deal.

Just post what you actually hear.

Actually a good point
Average league 2 players can go there and look brilliant. It's absolutely dire.

It feels like if gimoc breaks the news,generally it doesn't happen. Either that's wages break down, generally personalities of player and management don't click, or Sakamotos life threatening may not be able to walk again hip injury turns out it wasn't life changing after all

But generally doesn't happen. It's odd
Click to expand...

or maybe us fans don’t hear about half the stuff that goes on the background

info I get I share that’s what the forum is all bout

shows if anything how difficult it is to get a deal over the line this window

Thomas and now Matondo

both were looking very likely at one stage

Huge club, poor team, awful league. Seem to remember that Louis Moult moved into it from Nuneaton and scored double figures, it's just dreadful.
