Our new arrivals will arrive in time to be considered for the Preston game, a bit late, so not ideal, but better late than never Yep and I'm gonna get home from work to Kelly Brook naked holding a big fat back pay cheque from the Inland Revenue. I'll try not to get too disappointed when that doesn't happen either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 We will wait until transfer deadline to do business, said it a few weeks ago and saying it again now either we aren't prepared to spend, or the targets we're after just aren't available what I'm not a fan of is signing players for the sake of it, we've got a massive squad as it is and what we need is signings like Boyd who are first team players not people like max power who for me would just be another option in an already crowded midfield I want a centre half good to go not a half fit Djourou or a kid with potential Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vulva Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Our transfer policy Achilles heal is that we don't make money on players. Our spending is reasonable, but the output from our academy and player sales is woeful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
