I don't know how our recruitment process works or who is ultimately responsible for getting signings "over the line" but I do know that the same obstacles and issues get trotted out by the manager in every transfer window. We don't seem to have made any progress at all in this area.
Other clubs, small ones with limited budgets as well, seem to have their plans formulated in advance and make their moves early to secure their targets.
For example S****horpe, who were floundering in the relegation zone in League 1, signed 5 new players in 48 hours almost as soon as the January window opened. I'm pretty sure they won't have a massive budget and they're hardly a club you'd imagine people would be queuing up to join, but they needed to take action and got on with it.
I wish we would!
