Would be good to go into the first home match with a strengthened squad.
It’s been over two weeks since Hutchinson came in. We are due one….. |  | | |  |

As good as we did and the result in Sunday it did show that the boys need some help and we need to bring that extra quality and for me a little more athleticism/physicality in terms of attributes to bring in.
Im not sure anyone we sign would go straight into the squad for Saturday this late. Maybe bench I suppose. | | | |

Two things that would be great to add as you say "athleticism & physicality"
Sunderland had an abundance of it all across the pitch and a huge step up from the levels in League One that's for sure
A couple of additions with energy to burn with a physical presence at some point would be superb
I've no doubt the style and tactics are not an issue but it's the other levels we need to increase along with a higher technical calibre of replacement |  |

Don't think we have anyone remotely near signing at the moment. I think they are at a bit of a loss after not getting McNally, which l believe they thought was a done deal. |  | | |

Ashton basically confirmed we have a couple deals way down the line, this isn't FIFA or Football Manager where it's done in a matter of days/hours,
Patience is key as prem clubs are still sorting their squads out, relegated prem sides are still rebuffing offers for players,
Ashton again confirmed there will be a domino effect once the relegated prem sides start to sell players and the market opens up |  | | |

Ever thought of supporting Oil State FC or Putin’s Former Laundry Club? Or one of those Saudi money dopers?
Once upon a time Town supporters used to identify with players who actually stayed with the club - and progressed, given half a chance and a manager who believed in them and became quite good. Rather than crave a revolving door of mercenaries. | |

Don’t you even get a modicum of pride or expectation that the team that clicked in the new year might actually be very good?
At a cost of - £25 million to a cabal who expect to make money d’le time soon. | |

Yes but football is constantly evolving, you stand still and you go backwards, you can't just sit there and say because we were great for a few months we should just sit back and relax.
It's not how football or the world works.
And yes, in the land of milk and honey I'd love nothing more than a team full of local lads, but that ship sailed 40 years ago.
You might not like it, fair enough, but moaning about how great everything used to be is tedious. | |

If they were that far down the line then l would have thought they would have been sorted now ? That was nearly 3 weeks ago when he said that.
If Ashton confirmed there would be a domino effect, 1) it didn’t stop plenty of signings by championship clubs that has already taken place and 2) shows Ashton isn’t down the road with signings as he points out that can only happen when the top teams start moving people.
McNally was a done deal until Stoke came along, that’s the one he is so annoyed about. Why do you think he was telling fans to keep quiet about rumours? | | | |

Exactly, good local lads like Eric Gates, Alan Brazil, Kevin O'Callaghan and Arnold Muhren, oh and Sergei Baltacha... |  |

Just a quick question and I'm sorry for the interjection but you do know how football works and the start of the Prem League is actually a week later than the EFL and the transfer window closes at the end of August ...right ? | |

No idea whether the club is any nearer to making any announcements regarding new signings. But beating Sunderland must have helped the club sell itself to new players. Granted that it’s only one match but if we had lost 4-0 then some might well have thought ‘I’m not going there to get beat like that’. |  | | |

Harper took nearly a month to be completed
Davis took nearly a month to be completed
Deals don't just always happen overnight, other clubs may come in for the player so renegotiations may need to happen with the club/player over wages/fees, especially at Championship level
How do you know Ashton isn't down the road with the deals? Are you an insider with ITK knowledge of the goings on at the club?
Also, your first point is ridiculous, how do you know those deals weren't being negotiated before the end of the season or the start of the window and only now being announced?
Have some patience and faith in the club instead of whingeing all the time | | | |
