Have We Signed Anyone Yet?

Well done for reducing another thread to shyte

But at least it bumped the topic up the board, nobody seems to want to contribute anything.

No signings, no imminents, nothing

Yes, it's a pity the Smallbone's not connected to the Rathbone

Smallbone not signing

Pelvis has left the building

Having a bad day Perigord? Why pick on Grist's humour over Patty's?

I have it on very good authority Smallbone the midfielder in question was actually in the building about to sign the paperwork before deciding to go to Stoke.

Got 4 midfielders I'd say offensive. Lindsay can get his foot in but not an out & out holding midfielder so why get another on loan?

You spat the dummy out, and disappeared, then here you are again. Still the same cynical, bitter old man.

When was that then, Mastermind?

OK, we'll leave it while the end of the month to see what support the manager has been given.I may be proved wrong.

Just out of interest how do you define "backing the manager?"
You comment fairly regularly about what you consider to be of a lack of support from TS so presumably you have a clear view of what that support should be.
I think we should be told 🤔.

Second tier football..and if you call free transfers and offering peanuts to players that may keep the club in the division(that choose to go elsewhere for said reasons) "backing" the manager,then I agree there's no backing whatsoever...of course you have to cut your cloth accordingly but you also have to take a risk now and again.the amount of footballers the club has lost out on over the past few years through a few extra pounds is nonsense..TS saved the club,which we should never forget,but unfortunately while he still has control of the club we are never going to go progress any further..its a embarrassing as a second tier club to constantly pick up scraps no other club wants

Kevin very well put but, we are who we are and unless TS allows further investment into the club, then all we can expect is the norm of being a yo-yo club. It’s all well and good heaping praise on TS and rightfully so for his efforts but, investment is required to progress and it appears he ain’t letting anyone else onboard.

Agree with most of that Kevin.Warney is looking so frustrated and when he sees his mate Nathan down at Luton able to have the funds he needs to strenghthen the squad.I feel for him.Luton have smaller crowds and smaller revenue through hospitality than us but they invest to stay up because it makes sense.We all appreciate what has been done but we need to be more ambititious if we are to maintain our position.Nobody is saying we should be paying millions but in order to attract the players Warney has identified we have to lift the current wage structure.
