I don’t think there’s any money to spend I’m afraid. That’s the issue.We have money to spend and MM said no more loans so let's see time yet!
I thought we bid for the lad from Hearts?I don’t think there’s any money to spend I’m afraid. That’s the issue.
Phantom bid. Nothing more.I thought we bid for the lad from Hearts?
That's a great signingO'Brien to Blackburn on loan from Forest, exactly the player we would need.
That IS the issue.I don’t think there’s any money to spend I’m afraid. That’s the issue.
Yeah, wonder why we didn’t agree to spend 10million on him if we get promoted?O'Brien to Blackburn on loan from Forest, exactly the player we would need.
Personally, I prefer having a team that will comfortably stay in the championship. This must take priority over capital projects.That IS the issue.
Considerable dosh needed for training ground & East.
No bottomless pit!
Neither will happen although if the council stump up some cash the East Stand might get done. The TG is fantasy land stuff!That IS the issue.

No there isn’tThere's going to be a large wedge put aside for McCarthy if he keeps us up.
Mine was an educated guess. What was yours?No there isn’t
It depends if the new owner is in place by then. If it’s still Sadler then he ain’t got a pot of cash to give.Mine was an educated guess. What was yours?
Ah yes. Speculation by any other name would smell as circumspect.It depends if the new owner is in place by then. If it’s still Sadler then he ain’t got a pot of cash to give.
I think Brannagan (& his agent) were expecting Critchley to be hunting for him for QPR. However, Critchley is very much in the firing line with reports that he has lost the dressing room.Don’t rule out another attempt to get Brannigan.
Yeah, wonder why we didn’t agree to spend 10million on him if we get promoted?
Your point is?Yeah, wonder why we didn’t agree to spend 10million on him if we get promoted?
I at least thought would be linked with the Serbian bloke who now plays in MalaysiaFind it bizarre we’ve not even been linked with anyone today.
Feck me I thought that Gin fella was fecking depressing but you take the biscuit. Its not Gaz Beadin is it?!Neither will happen although if the council stump up some cash the East Stand might get done. The TG is fantasy land stuff!
Sadler has pulled the plug. Dereliction of duty as owner. The lack of investment since Jan 22 is scandalous. Just look at the squad. It’s a hotch potch of crocks and loanees.Find it bizarre we’ve not even been linked with anyone today.
I'm certain we were told that the money for those was ringfenced ie didn't impact on buying players.Personally, I prefer having a team that will comfortably stay in the championship. This must take priority over capital projects.
Just my opinion of course.
Quality? Goode might be a good short term addition. Bowler and Rodgers will be played but not as wingers. Nelson is a journeyman. Lyon’s seems decent let’s hope he continues to improve.Think MM and the board are content with what we have and I don't blame them, we've brought in 5 additions to the squad (6 if you count Lyons), we've really added a lot of quality already.
It'd be great to get a marquee signing but if it the price isn't right then there's not need to spend just to make a couple of fans happy.
No, quite the oppositeI'm certain we were told that the money for those was ringfenced ie didn't impact on buying players.
Something is impacting on buying what we need, at this defining stage of the season.I'm certain we were told that the money for those was ringfenced ie didn't impact on buying players.
I didn't quite believe it, but I'm certain that's what we were told.No, quite the opposite
That money has been swallowed up.Something is impacting on buying what we need, at this defining stage of the season.
Or there is no money in the transfer budget, and the income from Critch, Josh & Richard has been used to offset the losses from covid etc.
We've released some players, which has easd the wage bill.
He said that he would personally fund the capital projects to the tune of £40m+ …that’s when I first smelled bullshit.I didn't quite believe it, but I'm certain that's what we were told.
Ringfenced was used I'm sure, unless it was on here...?He said that he would personally fund the capital projects to the tune of £40m+ …that’s when I first smelled bullshit.
Two weeks watching them train?Quality? Goode might be a good short term addition. Bowler and Rodgers will be played but not as wingers. Nelson is a journeyman. Lyon’s seems decent let’s hope he continues to improve.
Midfield, well what can we say. After 2 weeks watching them train he went for Trybull, Patino and Bowler. Enough said. Short in there.
Up top. Madine isn’t fit, ever. Beesley isn’t good enough. Lavery is getting worse and just doesn’t score. All on Yates to play 19 games and score 10+ goals.
We need a focal point in midfield and another striker with experience who isn’t injured constantly. Without those 2 additions we’ll be going down.

Sounds like a Fielding special.Ringfenced was used I'm sure, unless it was on here...?
12 daysTwo weeks watching them train?
Don't disagree, except the first line.Sounds like a Fielding special.
Are we to believe that a guy who must have countless tens and tens of millions to pay for a project costing £40m himself, can only stretch to a couple of freebies and a couple of loans to try and keep the club up? Something smells a bit fishy and has done for a while now.
Meanwhile the total silence from the club continues.
It’s all about opinions. Goode has only played one game as has Trybull but you reckon both walk into a top 6 team?Goode, Trybull, and Bowler would be starting on any mid table Championship club and maybe even on some pushing the top 6.
Nelson adds experience and depth and we'll have options once Marvin gets back in a few weeks.
Madine has literally played in 22 out of our 27 league matches this year.
We've only played one match (which was a cup match at that) and you've already decided that what we have isn't good enough? Depending on what formation MM plays consistently, Patino and Trybull should be good enough for a midfield two.
Our business has been good and makes me confident for the rest of the season.
Yep and they trained very day right...12 days
Didn't say they'd walk in to a top 6 team, just that they could very well play for a team pushing the Playoffs.It’s all about opinions. Goode has only played one game as has Trybull but you reckon both walk into a top 6 team?
Bowler is an out and out winger, MM doesn’t play with wingers?!
Madine is a carthorse probably months from being turned into glue.
I don’t share your optimism.
