It's June 21stWho said he shouldn’t increase revenue?
I want what I wanted under Sisu: a plan.
So far it seems to be “hope for a miracle while reducing losses”. Which was the Sisu plan.
The fact is King isn’t saying he’s doing it to cut losses, he’s saying he’s doing it so the squad can be competitive. In which case he needs to produce a competitive squad.
Yea you're right! 6+ weeks away!Lets play our first few games with a half full squad, good thinking.
Im thinking about the big pre season game at Exeter?Yea you're right! 6+ weeks away!
To the best of my knowledge King won’t decide who we buy, or what wage structure we have …. That’s for Austin and Robins. King will decide what playing budget they gave to operate with and what % of incoming transfer fees are reinvested in the squad.
Today we have been linked with a few low profile signings and already fans are blaming King for that.
Until we see the window close we won’t be able to judge whether the window has been a positive one or not but I fully expect to see a real mixture of signings:
a few loans
2-3 free transfers
2-3 lower league players with potential
3-4 proven championship players
1-2 foreign signings
IF that is the case we will feel underwhelmed at times, but until we see them play we won’t know.
It's June 21st
Fucking hell
6 weeks to sign around 10 players
Yeah - who got really excited about Vik and Gus when we first signed them. Guessing it wouldn't be hard to look back and find a lot of 'underwhelmed'
Christ the bloody bedwetting on here. Wait until the window closes. End of debate.
Just no need to panic. Got to be patientA d King has given several interviews. Which is what I’m commenting on: rhetoric.
Obviously all that matters is where we are next May, but Nicks got kids to feed man, can’t go quiet until then.
Loan or Permenant?Burnley are going to loan out McNally again after signing O’Shea from West Brom.
Just no need to panic. Got to be patient
That's all speculation at the moment though isn't it. We have no evidence of what Hamer has or hasn't been offered. We have no evidence of what signings, loans or otherwise we are going to make. It's early days.If noises are to be heard we’re not willing to pay one of the best midfielders in the league 20k a week, which top players would expect from a side looking to be a top 6 club
there’s also the hints that we will be more active in the loan market - despite Doug saying we need our own players not loans earlier on in the year.
we may just be doom mongering but I’m sceptical about doug starting from his motives buying us
Unrealistic to expect us to buy 3 players by now just to show king means business?Again, no panic. Well see where we are. Just saying King isn’t particularly inspiring so far. And when you’re asking for more money a bit of inspiration goes a long way.
It’s one reason why I’d get Hamer signed up. That alone would cause massive buzz around the club.
I'm actually encouraged by the fact we haven't splurged cash on the first players to swan past the door. It would be easy for King to do, sign a bit of a "name", probably a player in his 30s and on the downward spiral. The more cautious approach suggests he's leaving it to Robin's and Austin to identify actual talent that improves the team.Unrealistic to expect us to buy 3 players by now just to show king means business?
Sure lots of work going on behind scenes that we don't know about before multiple deals can be made official
I’ve followed his career since never.Decent signing for them
He said both those things in the same interview earlier this week. I let it slide as I didn't want to be negative, but he did seem to directly contradict himself.If noises are to be heard we’re not willing to pay one of the best midfielders in the league 20k a week, which top players would expect from a side looking to be a top 6 club

What I like about the title of this thread is the positive optimism "Transfer Targets.". In reality it seems more rumour, speculation and wishful thinking.
Early days I know and with some targets you may have to play the long game. I also know most players are still on holiday.
But considering the lack of CB's, I am suprised we haven't seen one come in already? Even if it was an experienced player as squad filler or even a promising League 2 player as squad filler?
Considering we need about 15 players, I thought we might have had two or three ducks lined up in a row not just the one (who I think is a good signing). I wasn't expecting wow signings just some astute squad signings early doors, out of contract or nominal fee.
Exactly, with some of the u23s being released, we'd need some development players too that can bridge the gap, as Tavares amd Rus were when we brought them in. Just been all Gyok bollocksWhat I like about the title of this thread is the positive optimism "Transfer Targets.". In reality it seems more rumour, speculation and wishful thinking.

Thanks slow sports news
I wish we banned any linking to that sh*t rag.Dele Alli
“However, one reckoned Alli was making a play to join Championship side Coventry... “
Dele Alli shows off drastic new haircut.. and fans think it's hint for new club
DELE ALLI has shown off a drastic new haircut. And fans reckon it’s a cryptic transfer hint for his new club. Alli, 26, is back at Everton after a dismal loan spell with Turkish side Besiktas. He m…www.thesun.co.uk
I think the club will be focusing on giving the best U18/U16 players game time in the 23s as they did last year. Will be more profitable from a development pov. than persevering with the likes of CashmanExactly, with some of the u23s being released, we'd need some development players too that can bridge the gap, as Tavares amd Rus were when we brought them in.

On our Liam Kelly thought we’d have heard about him signing by now, might be looking for a longer deal elsewhere with a view to coaching role
