Off the pitch maybe but he doesn't really offer a great deal on it. Kelly is very much a L1 player and that was shown even when he was starting games during the season 20/21 season.
You make it sound like kelly is a past it has been. Clearly he offers a lot to the side on and off the pitch. I would have extended Doyle though seeing as you asked.
Well to be fair we were apparently scouting Shankland shortly after I mentioned him the first time. Not bad for a whinging chino wearing streak of piss
Not a bad shout, but Shankland also turned out to not be all that at all…
It needs bigger, he said he needed a bigger squadIt needs to be better not bigger.

Thats fair enough, but why sign players that aren’t good enough in the first place, I probably should have stated in my previous post that we need more players in the squad who can step in when needed not necessarily great players or like for like just players that give effort, work hard and aren’t massively out of their depthNo point signing players that bring nothing you could have a squad of 100 but if only 18 are good enough what’s the point.

You make it sound like signing 8-10 players in one window can be done cheaply. If it was that simple, I’m sure Robins would sign them.
We’re still losing 4 million a year so not really sure what people want us to spend. If we at least broke even, maybe we could be a bit riskier.
In your opinion yes. He assisted the Bristol city winner, the equaliser at Blackburn do you want me to go on? He offers plenty and fully deserved his extensionOff the pitch maybe but he doesn't really offer a great deal on it.

He does deserve to stay, he maybe isnt up to the quality if starting but he definitely is good enough for the benchIn your opinion yes. He assisted the Bristol city winner, the equaliser at Blackburn do you want me to go on? He offers plenty and fully deserved his extension

What are we 4 days into the transfer window and you clowns having a meltdown

I find it very bizarre myself. I'm all for getting players in early, allows them time to gel with the squad, shows you get your first choices and know what you're looking for etc. but we need a training session at the very least for them to be able to start to gel anyway!What are we 4 days into the transfer window and you clowns having a meltdown

Yes I am thanks. I didn't say he scored the equaliser so perhaps read properly before you comment. You clearly have an issue with him and I sympathise with you. I am more than happy he is here.So you're happy one of our higher earners is third choice, is injured for at least half the season and at best will only come on in the final 10-20 minutes in games?
He didn't score the equaliser against Blackburn that was an OG. So you're more than welcome to 'go on' but his assist for Godden's goal vs Bristol City and accidentally forcing an OG were his only real highlights from last season.
I don't remember any real stand out performances from the few minutes he did play other than perhaps Fulham (h) where pretty much every player was voted 7+.
I AM SO ANGRY ABOUT SOMETHING I DONT KNOW WILL ACTUALLY HAPPEN!
When will we get the first "FFS just sign somebody" nonsense
It's funny really, until the mid 90s Atkinson era (which coincided with the Bosman ruling and the increase in Sky revenue tbf) there would be one or two signings at most each summer.
The whole window is just a game of monopoly for the big boys with the rest trying to deal with the after effects
I did already say this, but guess what... I wasn't being entirely serious

I think the close season before our Cup win, Sillett brought in Houchen from Scunthorpe, Painter from Stoke and perhaps Culpin from Nuneaton. Not a stellar ‘window’ (there were no ‘windows’ at that stage), and had there been social media back then, no doubt some would have been calling for Sillett to go.When will we get the first "FFS just sign somebody" nonsense

This is it for me. I don't have the energy to get all upset every time we miss out on a player or we haven't signed one after three days of the transfer window being open (not accusing you by the way). Every year the same stuff comes out. It's mad how short everyone's memory is. I'd hope we can be a little more patient and less emotive. SBB obviously has an insider at the club, or works there himself. He's provided great information countless times, as has Better Days. But, he isn't going to have the definitive inside track on what we will be spending this summer. It could be spot on and we have to manage our budget, or it could be we are keeping our cards close to our chest and may have more to play with than has been leaked.It’s not that we haven’t signed anyone. It’s rumours that all we’ve got is frees, loans, and wages we can free up.
