It was nearly right.

Dean Windass moves closer by going to Goole AFC as chairman..........................trouble is he jacked it in after 8 days.

 

So now Dean Windass moves further away.

We have always loved leaving it late in the window to get most of our business done why would it be any different now?

we have but this season is different. We start on -12. We need to be fully prepared from the very first game. We can’t afford a slow start to put us further behind.

As mentioned in the other thread, it’s a team game, and I’m not sure I saw any evidence that he could lift our fortunes Him and Rhodes would be a League One pairing, and that’s where we’d likely end up

 

 

And it's raining and I've left my washing out.

Aren't we playing Leicester this weekend? Not exactly a smart match to arrange with such a depleted squad, the team bonding will be really put to the test.

Why are we not more ambitious? Messi is available on a free. We need to aim higher.

Yep - start with a thumping and then move down until you manage to scrape a result. Oh wait....haven't we already played the Dingles (albeit the U23's)?

Nixon on twitter says we are getting Widnass for £450k.

 

Thought we could have got him cheaper with them in their position.

Seems a bit high, when they only got £800,000 for Lowe, a much better player

I thinks it’s because Wigan owe Rangers 450k for Windass still so administrators can’t go lower.

Reads like we are stalling at that price to me or it would have been done by now if not surely?

Yes probably, at that price it has to be a no

[WalthamOwl]

As I’ve said before I don’t really think Windass is what we need but 450k sounds cheap imo. Really do think we should be raiding Wigan for a few more, wonder how cheap we could get Morsy for.

Where you gonna play him though? Just wouldn't be a fit with our formation.  

[SiJ]

He's a solid enough player who can play in a few different positions and apparently is very keen to rejoin us. 

 

We ain't going to get Lionel Messi folks.

Might be that wages are a sticking point or/and length of contract. No other clubs seem to be bidding but administrators have set their price.
