The TANSFER WINDOW, another summer FIASCO !!!!

[Guybrush]

But in Response to this thread. I don’t see anyone we have missed out on

The people that have moved have moved for inflated fees and wages and are not what we need

We need a striker to play second fiddle - in a World Cup season

A right winger who can offer at least the same as Murphy but many want better - who two seasons ago that would have been easy to do. But it is now going to take a bit more homework to get in someone who can offer 20 direct goal involvements from the right wing well done Murph btw we will need more than a flat track bully ( sorry miggy ❤️)now to displace him

A CB to push or replace the unbreakable mighty Schar (I am convinced he has a Mr Glass taking all his injuries for him - oh, hi Wilson )

And I would love another midfield brick wall for win JL is otherwise unavailable.

I am pretty calm about it all, for now at least. However that being said, I will likely be fuming end of the window IF nobody signs.

But hey - it is July tomorrow and a new PSR cycle, I’ll just wait for the announcement at 12:01am

Yeah, I usually use brave as my browser because of the ads.

Back on it in Safari but they hijack the thread with all sorts of stuff I now feel the impulse to buy

Try using Adguard, I use it free and never have a problem with ads etc. plus I use Surfshark VPN.

I couldn't log on for a couple of days. Changed my browser to Firefox and that 'invalid request' message disappeared.

Not really..

When a player (especially a young one with a partner) joins a club he looks for friends within that group, he trains with them daily, he isnt home most of the day and most weekends....

His partner/wife is.. alone..

this is a massive factor in players coming to Newcastle, this has been stated one of the main reasons players with wives look to go to London, they know what to expect at London, they have heard of London..

Gone are the days of players signing for whoever, 90% of footballers make their decisions based on what their partner wants and their partner wants bright lights and shopping.. not Eldon Square or the metro centre..

These are facts..

Whoever we do get lets just hope they're not 4th and 5th choice.. or another Guehi saga

You raise some valid points about players choosing the stinking LONDON clubs ahead of us, HOWEVER, 3 or 4 years ago, Amanda Staley was able to sell the dream to the likes of TRIPPIER, BRUNO, ISAK, POPE, GORDON, BARNES and BOTMAN !!!!

WHAT THE HELL HAS HAPPENED SINCE THAT PAUL MITCHELL KUNT STEPPED FOOT HERE ????? The simple answer is a big fat NOTHING !!!!

The good news is that no-hoper has packed his toys and f@Cked off to wherever, GOOD RIDDANCE.

NEXT: Will we sell ISAK? The pursuit of Isak by LIVERPOOL never seems to stop, and one wonders whether it may be time to cash in, for at least 150 to 200 MILLION. Imagine what that money could do, at least 3 or 4 top players - and we don't have that KUNT, Ashley around anymore to pocket it all for his gambling addiction.

What I read two months ago must have been complete *******s about a war chest we supposedly had for this window - I heard well over 125 million !!!! Now we are arguing over 5 million dollars being the difference in getting a deal done or not. Most of our other rivals are getting deals done, and are strengthening their squads significantly. THOUGHTS?

Well Mitchel brought in a load of highly rated youngsters, that even if they don't make it should net us good profit for PSR. He also brought in Bunce which totally overhauled our medical dept as shown by the lesser amount of injuries this season.

But aye, first team he did **** all.

Isak. . . we had him off to Arsenal all last window and it didn't happen. I'll be worried if we've not signed anyone by end of July as he might be looking then.

We probably do have that warchest but we couldn't do anything till July 1st due to the PSR windows - now that has passed I think we'll see movement.

Whats happened to the forum. clicking on Dans Domain gives me a message that its an invalid forum. Anybody else having problems

I am also having the same problem - can only get on via the Latest Post option in the main section - cannot access Dan's Domain

[PhoneymcRingRing]

I thing the url has changed the dans domain link in my bookmarks doesn?t work anymore I get the link from google now

[Derek57]

That's how i am getting onto the forum. It's a pain the arse and checking on other clubs forums on the site they seem to be ok. Typical that its ours.

[Jammy89]

Thats what I had to do today - said database error when i clicked on bookmark.

[Ragatino]

I'm getting the same issues.

[Nufcian]

I was having trouble for ages on my iPhone? then I deleted my browser history? and I?m back.

Probably a cache or cookie issue

[Ragatino]

It's not cache issue. It might be helped with some devices to delete cookies but the Site is probably getting 'maintenance' and it's being done on the cheap.
From what Zip has said I don't think the owners of the site either generate a lot of revenue from the site anymore, considering it's about 10 yrs past peak traffic or they simply run it with a skeleton crew.

Would explain the ??? for everything from pound signs to exclamation marks.

I literally couldn?t get in, cleared history, and then got in.

I think it is a cache issue, I visit this page often, it caches often visited with pages and keeps the URL? others have said similar that they can get on other teams pages (as I could)? which is what made me think to clear my history? and bob?s your uncle.

If it was a maintenance issue it would affect all the pages.

Strangely enough I'm having no problems at all at the moment. If it starts being awkward I switch from Edge to Brave or Chrome and that usually fixes it.

I'm having great difficulty "replying" or "replying with quote".
