    Not going well this summer recruitment is it. Missed out on Crichlow, Williams and probably Agyei next

    Still plenty of time for new signings. We haven't hit the "Gurthrie" Zone stage of the transfer window.

    Williams is very injury prone and needs nursing through matches. Better off without him

    To get the right player we need will involve a six figure fee.
    Is the owner prepared to do that?

    This is always going to happen with City, we are a self sufficient run club and Rupp will not put in his own money when it comes to signing top players.
    Under this regime City will forever be fishing in the sh*tpool when it comes to signing players i'm afraid.
    Fair enough his agent did a job on City but to be outbid by Gillingham says just where we are as a club.

    Players are back in training in just 2 weeks. Most clubs like to have their squad assembled by then and use the PL loan market when the season starts

    @Sergio Pinto III@Sergio Pinto III now you might understand why I have a go at Parker.

    Lazy journalism from him once again.

    Parker was getting criticism this week from the usual suspect for not doing enough to publish City transfer rumours.

    So would I and I dont blame him either but its more the fact that he's obviously still been keeping himself in the shop window while telling us he's excited to join then jumped ship as soon as something else cropped up. Tends to suggest he wasn't that keen to come really. I suspect it happens more than we know. Good player but if its all about the brass I'd rather we didn't sign him

    Annoying thing for City is whoever does fit that slot has to be level or better now. If its some L2 journeyman then the forums and social media will have the new lad wishing he'd never bothered.

    Who was the manager who wanted players to move within a reasonable travel distance. Was it Stuart? Maybe there’s merit in looking at players meeting that criteria, whilst limiting the pool you’re fishing in. Players wanting to play for us will move just as Walker has done. Shame it didn’t work out but we may have dodge one there.

    Copying and pasting from The Sun and others is lazy.

    Report serious things. He’s a joker.

    Footballer and his agent in “playing one club off against another to get a better deal” shocker.

    The irony on Gillingham forum.

    Someone questioning his character because he jumped ship yesterday from one club to another.

    He hasn’t signed for them yet , one suspects he’s playing two clubs off each other for money and could change his mind again.

    Bye son, on your bike.
