Most liked posts in thread: January transfer window

Nobody is suggesting he's irreplaceable but there's two points here.

Firstly, there's at least half a squad we should be moving on before we get to Cooke.

Secondly, with all these "irreplaceable" players we move on, we always seem to end up with worse.

 

We’re clearly more organised than normal. 1st January and we’re already rolling out the excuses. That’s efficient, I don’t care what anyone says.

 

Jimmy Quinn was several classes above Charlie Wyke

 

Absolute piss poor that he's keeping Staunton out of the side imo

 

Thing with Charman is he has a four game suspension to serve so he won't be playing in a match day squad for the next few weeks. But if we're intent on signing him, we should be making the most of it. Bring him in early and get him settled in because he's going up two divisions and going from training two nights a week to full time training every day. It's not the easiest of transitions, especially physically and whatever striker we bring in, we need them sharp, fit and ready to go as soon as they're available.

That's what a club who's remotely competent in the transfer market would do anyway.

 

Both our main strikersvare injured, both the back ups are marginally better than north west counties league one standard. What do we do ?

Sign the invisible man and a goal keeper.

Couldn't make it up.

 

Dear oh dear, doesn't that just sum up this club?

An owner who refuses to invest, a CEO who doesn't understand the concept of speculating to accumulate and a manager who takes pride in the fact he's only spent £40k in his career.

This cheap and shoddy attitude and mindset is ingrained throughout the club so it's no wonder we're going nowhere.

 

£300,000 and doubled his wages.

Pretty silly if you ask me.

 

No one knows what the future holds for any club, wouldn't if be nice to have an owner/owners who showed interest and put themselves out to come from America to meet fans and give their vision going forward, with regards players and injuries every signing is a gamble Andy.

 

A championship player on a suspected £27k a week and a 34 year old playing in the 6th tier both mentioned on the same page, what do they both have in common? They both played for us, and some accuse the club of recruiting lazy some of our fans are even worse! Had they never played for us they’d never in a million years get a mention.

 

I was gonna put the same but you put it across better so in all these months with a new scouting set up we end up with 5 loans.
A keeper
A winger whose gone missing
A winger from Hearts
A striker with 11 goals in his last 95 games
A rookie from Town

thank the lord for our new amazing scouting set up

 

The club’s given up on this season. You don’t have a forward line of Cook, Robinson, Lavery and Elliot if you’re planning to score enough goals to trouble then play offs. Likewise with Threlkeld at RB. Taking the piss out of the fans in my opinion after talk of having a budget to put a good squad together and promotion. feck Sparks, Rupp and Adams.

 

In isolation, I'm not overly bothered that Canavan has gone. Been shite for me this season and is a position we can upgrade on. Problem is, we all know that his replacement will be worse.

Also, nothing screams "I've lost the dressing room" more than selling the man you appointed as club captain hours before the deadline.

 

Ground should be fertile..... been plenty of shit on it over the past few years.

 

To think a couple of whoppers said Rupp had invested this window, only getting rid of two players. Now got rid of our club captain for a few, plus the Crankshaw fee. Investment my arse.

In the build up to the window, more nonsense by Sparks. We’ll never have money to spend under Rupp, that’s what sustainable means!
