Sold the American Dream only for it to be a complete and utter cover up? We’re heading into the weekend with a 5-a-side team? What is happening to this club? |  |

Just the influx of bedwetters, rubberneckers and social media enthusiasts that have been here since the takeover news. Everything is a worry, everything is a drama - even if it's just a hypothetical they've invented to get upset over. I blame e-numbers or their parents. |  |

Lol I wish I was that quick this morning……. Or is that tomorrow morning? Either way we have way too many fans who are expecting instant £5m signings the day the transfer window opened……….. kids these days have zero patience, we have been promised signings this summer and lots of them, unlike the previous regime under Evans of “got to sell before we buy etc” we aren’t in that position this year and I fully believe what is coming out of the owners………. Have faith people it will come good |  |

If it was June 26th I would understand his frustrations, but June 25th he needs to calm down. If, however, we haven't signed anyone tomorrow, then i'll arrange the protests. |  |

One point of order though Guthrum, and why I do understand some of the panic and concern. You need to add next to those totals.... current scale of first team squad additions coming into.... None will be even close to 11. So whilst I love your research... there is another angle to this, surely, shirley? |  |

So our best season in the last 10 years by far, 2014/15, we’d made nil signings at this point in time. Nought, nil, zippo, s@d all, less than one. It seems like expectations may be running ahead of reality for some. |  | |  |

Are you aware that the majority of the remaining squad has been placed in the U23s to be shipped out? |  | |  |

I wasn't aware of that, I must have missed the news stories, tweets and thousands of posts on the subject. SB |  | |  |

It's all well and good saying trust the process, but Cook has already forced the situation. Either we get many more players in or the club and Cook are left red-faced and have to backtrack on their statements to players at the end of last season. There is no longer a fallback option because the players who were put in the U23s are obviously not going to be keen on staying. |  | |  |

And fans are quite focussed on the chance of our team doing well.... and Cook and the new regime getting it right Just building on this point of only 11 players so 9 needed.... we do have a month as we should keep reminding ourselves! to get the 9. THANKS GOD with Harper that looks to be 8! Its interesting to look back to last early August in that we field TWO teams against Col U given the bloated nature of the squad: Wright, Vincent-Young, Ward (Smith 57), Nsiala, Woolfenden, Skuse (McGavin 57), Bishop, Huws (El Mizouni 45), Dobra, Edwards, Drinan Przybek, Donacien, Kenlock, Chambers, Ndaba, Downes, Judge (McGavin 68), Dozzell, Lankester (El Mizouni 62), Sears, Jackson (Folami 59). Subs: Smith. That was really a squad of 21 senior players ahead of the new campaign (i've ignored some of the youngsters who played). So two friendlies actually needed. We now have: BURNS, Donacien, El Mizouni, EVANS, Holy, Ndaba, Nolan, Norwood, Nsiala, KVY and Wolfenden... and hopefully HARPER I am really glad that Wolfenden has made it |  |

Not like you've really got a choice but to sit back and wait, is it? I mean, you could spend a lot of time and energy getting upset at something you've no control over but that would be a bit daft, wouldn't it. |  |
