    We will recall McCarten hail it as a new sighing and sign 3 young lads on loan from Palace as they are our new unofficial feeder club.

    We will be “close” to a couple of others but “January is a hard window to sign players in”

    Shows how desperate we are for an answer. Although Jim OB hasn't embarrassed himself.

    As long as we get decent players that’s all that matters

    Didn't Hopkin quite adamantly state he wanted some experience and some "proper men"?

    Christian Benteke - you heard it here first. That being said, didn't he have a mare the other year with Villa at VP?

    Company Secretary, accountancy background. I suspect he has little to do with the day to day running of the club, @wetherbywhaler@wetherbywhaler would know more of course.

    Anyone calling for more players in January needs to ask this;

    Who’s paying for it? Rahic ain’t, nor is Rupp. There is no cup run to draw ManYoo or Citeh this year, the club’s cupboard is so bare there are administration rumours on Twitter and frankly there’s not a single player of value to sell. In my opinion there is a reason Abbot and Drury are still here, Hopkin hasn’t got his own coaching team and we’re not signing free agents like the previously mentioned Davies.

    Yep - Unless there is a total re-think at boardroom level, I can only see 1 for 1 'swaps' taking place. Same low wages, just different faces. :(

    Edit ....... Or should that read faeces ?

    It happens when you can’t meet your bills. When there is no money left to pay the players wages, or staff.

    it doesn't matter who we sign - if Rahic is still around we'll have the same problems.

    Yeha I know how a club goes into administration, but which bills are we not paying?

    And which players or staff are not being paid?

    The owners are not that stupid. It’s clear we are running at a deficit this year and that money must be being put up by the owners.

    Really? Ask the accountants on this site, they are saying there has been no donations.
