Given the budget he's been given / options and avenues he's had to go down, to get players through the door........ and do you really think he thought Banj / Traore / players like this Mick REALLY was utterly desperate to sign !?

Christ alive - he may be a pain in many respect, but his dealings in the transfer market on the whole / some of the loans we've had have been superb.

Superb ?

How much did we receive in transfer fees at the same time ?

How come he missed Marriot ?

Other clubs have benefited from PL players, whilst MM has failed to reall bring any decent youngsters through first team

And 85 plus players in 5 and a half years is going some whatever your thoughts

15ish of those are what I'd say we're very good to decent. The rest utter sht.

We’ll be good again... one day

Got 60 out of 78. Should have been 62 but I couldn't get it to accept St Ledger or McClean. Couldn't remember Feeneys name which threw me off. Proud of myself for pulling Kelly Youga out of the back of mind somewhere.

It's outrageous how many of them signings were absolutely dreadful

My hobbies include being quiet during trips, clapping with songs, and diabetes.

I am very much looking forward to Mick leaving. But I think when he does he leaves us a much better squad than he found on arrival. Nobody’s transfer dealings will be perfect, but given we have a better squad and he has made a tidy profit in transfer dealings, this is not an area I am willing to give him anything but praise. His football style yes, but transfers no.

Yep this. Always going to be plenty of misses when relying on freebies and other teams cast offs but there have been plenty of success stories too

It’s time for a change and plenty to criticise Mick for from his spell here, but criticising his overall transfer dealings seems to me another stick that certain posters have invented to beat him with, which just doesn’t stand up to scrutiny

Also thanks to the OP for the link - 66 but somehow missed Jonny Williams and Varney (the rest were fairly obscure!)

When our budget is so small, bringing in players on low salaries, on a speculative basis, to see how they fit in, is perfectly fine. Obviously, a high strike rate would be better, but its unrealistic when we're signing so many.

Sadly, this isn't the Seventies, when Robson signed barely a handful of players over a decade or so.

Amen.

Of course others seem to think the MAJORITY of free signings must be a roaring success or the manager is clueless in the market.

I very much look forward to seeing how the next one does given their budget will be similar.

The only over 85 player I can think of that we've signed is Finidi George, but it wasn't MM that signed him.
