2 weekends away from first league game 15:03 - Jul 21 with 9128 viewsTalkingBlues

and we’re still relying on players who weren’t getting games in League 1 to get us up the Championship table.

I hope the recruitment team have been busy behind the scenes cos we are at least 3 players short of where we need to be as a squad.

Awful summer transfer window for us so far, already leaving any new recruits no chance to bed in and get some pre season with the squad, McKenna must be annoyed.

Tbh apart from a lcb if that's even KM wants.. we've recruited in the areas we needed to.

We have our striker.
We have competition for Burns and cover for the 10s
We have a new midfielder to take over from the oldies

With our style and the way we play it was important we kept the majority of the side together whilst letting the fringe players go.

Any new player that comes in now can gradually get to understand our play whilst the others continue to get on with it.

Those we may still want however come into pretty obvious roles..

Lcb.. Ball playing defender. Keep shape. Play ball etc
Another striker.. press. Hold the ball bring others into play or sit on shoulder if we playing over the top.

That's pretty much it isn't it?


We haven’t got the striker situation sorted, Hirst was always going to be signed, but we need another one, Hirst could score 30, or 3 this season and the reason we wanted him in the first place was cos Ladapo couldn’t find the net, there’s a big question mark hanging over 9 and that’s not a good place to be.

Competition for Burns? Jackson (LOL) or a 19 year old kid who’s been playing U21’s, not what I’d call competition, especially at Championship level. Taylor we’ve wanted and got, centre mid doesn’t seem an issue, unless they all get injured again. We desperately need a bit more at the back too, big step up to this level (poor sides aside) and we lack experience there IMO.

We are well short of what we need and haven’t ejected the surplus, probably due to our failure to sign targets, this has been a poor window IMO. SO FAR!!!

So in two weeks time we may well start with

Walton - Regular starter in League One
Janoi - Regular starter in League One until Clarke signed. But he has a 1 game ban.
Wolf - Regular starter in League One
Burgess - Regular starter in League One
Davis - Regular starter in League One
Morsy - Regular starter in League One
Luongo - Regular starter in League One
Burns - Regular starter in League One. Or if injured, Hutchinson (Chelsea player)
Broadhead - Regular starter in Championship/ League One
Chaplin - Regular starter in League One
Hirst - Regular starter in League One

Our transfer window so far has seen Taylor join, target of ours over three windows, Hirst, a striker targeted all of last season and now joined permanently and Hutchinson, on loan from a Premier league team. The window is open for another six weeks and we will no doubt add a defender o to plus another striker.

You talk utter pish!

We lost Simms to Coventry, embarrassing to say the least and looks like we aren’t going to get Rak Sakyi now, hence the move for the teenager playing U21’s, massively underwhelming, though there are those that would try and dress this up as a success.

These were 2 TOP TARGETS, lol, we are brilliant at twisting arms in League 1, but clearly not quite so adept at dealing with bigger boys.

We love Ladapo scummer.

His goals per minute ratio was better than Hirst’s.

Did we lose Simms? Didn’t realise he was our player. Much rather Hirst.

It’s difficult at this moment to say whether the £5 million pound Chelsea youngster is better than the Palace youngster. Probably best to judge our manager on that one.

Your manager seems to have dragged up a couple of old beauties this season.

It was on another thread when somebody was calling him out to be the obvious scummer he is. You had a pop at the person. Donnie I think.

By the way I think it’s good to defend people. It’s just that this moron talkingblues is an obvious scummer.
