An utter disaster?

An utter disaster would have been signing some of the players named on here. We haven't sold anyone. We haven't paid an inflated price for any signings. We haven't broke the wage structure to bring in a loan.

There's still nearly 2 weeks to go. It can still become a disaster. It can also become a good window. At least we know we're trying to bring players in. But let's wait and see before deciding we already know.

Having 300 games championship experience doesn't necessarily mean he is currently playing in it. Could be currently overseas or even in the PL

Yes in the summer of 2023 and his £35k a week wages were the issue

The problem is, expectations were raised due to speculation that there were a number of incomings waiting to happen on day 1.
Results have picked up, we have 3 key players to come back in, Allen, Kitching, and Dovin have risen to the challenge so far and are like 3 new signings when you compare to the team of a few weeks ago. I think there is no need to rush panic buys in at the moment, if the right players are not available or hold us to ransom we should wait. So not a disaster for me.

There were no expectations raised by the club only by forum ITK’s. Frank has been down playing it all window.

It's just a nothing statement though isn't it.

My dinner tonight would've been a disaster if I stopped cooking halfway through.

Not if you were having hard boiled eggs and a very well done steak.

It’s not quite like that.

it’s more like someone saying we have had a lovely holiday so far at the mid point of their break

Pretty sure Matondo was a target because he can play on either wing.

We do need a RW because Raphael isn’t up to it.

Everything I've seen lists him as predominantly LW and I'd rather have a specialist RWer that could play left or even better a RWer that can play RB but TBF I don't know that much about him. He might be good.

He's played mainly on the left wing. Barely a handful of games on the right in his career.

But 'SO FAR' there hasn't been a disaster as you say. As we haven't wasted any money just bringing in bodies we still have time to bring in players we need. It wouldn't be a disaster if we don't manage to bring in the right players as we would still have the money to rebuild in the summer. Wasting it now would be a disaster.

we have not signed players where we are very light on numbers, for me that is a bit of a disaster. If MVE gets injured, what then, Jack Burroughs yay!

Won't give me a name

28, over 300 championship appearances

Low fee but higher wage which suggests to me out of contract

Feel free to have a scout about because I got bored looking after 5 minutes

Feel like it’s Dan Barlaser from Boro. They have been looking to move him on so would line up with the Low fee but high wages

No idea. Very hard window to get anyone in. But if we’re talking to another Cm might suggest we couldn’t meet his wages
