    Yawn, stretch. Back to sleep. We don’t have the most exciting windows, even when we had some money to spend!

    A plan - any plan

    Does any one at the top Nestor or Mason have a transfer plan? Surely they know what gaps need filling, what type of player will fit Mason's vision - if he has one he's kept it secret.

    When Mason got the job surely he discussed his vision, the capabilities of the squad.

    Or did that ever get discussed?

    An assistant store manager at an Asda interview would be asked what he knew of the company and where they might make improvements.

    I have a nasty feeling there was no such discussion about playing style, squad strengthening.

    So far just management platitudes & trusting that his experience in the prem with quality managers and much higher quality players will be enough.

    I don't see this ending well for Mason or the club.

    I hope I'm wrong- I know I'm right

    Im not pessimistic about the appointment. I just know as a club we operate on a very conservative basis. Tight purse strings. Even in the Prem the best we did was spending around 12 million on one player. Forest go up and spend 250 million on players. Clever spending like Heggem and Price is the way for this club, but then we are just warming them up for another club to snap up.

    So very true, let?s hope we can unearth several more gems, rather go the ?Brentford? route than spend, spend, spend that ultimately gets us nowhere

    Well if Devante Cole and Frabotta fit into Nestors vision we are well and truly f ucked!

    Have any clubs submitted bids yet for Bartley, Wallace, Furlong, Mowatt and Dike?
