I’m starting to feel like we've all been played

Absence of fans - Absence of big spending, it’s not difficult is it



Don't really mean big spending though

It's more about bolstering a squad second from bottom and about to go into game after game after game after game after game

If you were sitting in the upper mid-table and relatively safe you'd not sign a single player


If you were doing well and had a real chance at promotion you might bring in one maybe two players


If you are in the bottom three, staring at relegation, with a threadbare squad and loads of injuries you'd surely want to secure your existence by bringing in players?

Remember last time we were in a transfer embargo and we didn't know anything about it until the club released a celebratory tweets stating we were out of one?

 

You can sign out of contract players (Green, Hutchinson) when under an embargo I think.

 

 

Think they still have to be approved by the EFL as well. 

 

Hence the delay/lag on both deals. 

 

Join the dots up and tbh are any of us suprised?

No new signings of any note 

 

We have been played again haven’t we

 

What a season to make no changes in January and to risk not bringing a new manager in at all

 

This could end very badly 

 

 

 

 


Surely we need one before the other? If we sign players before appointing a manager we’re further adding to the continuing self inflicted problems we have of ‘wrong players right manager OR right players wrong manager’....?

 

I think the fact we still haven’t appointed anyone makes it clear nobody any good wants the job. So we’ll be left to roll the dice with NT (although part of me wonders if he will have a Stuart Gray like effect) or take an ever bigger gamble on some gunslinger like Keane (current bookies fav).


The problems in summer are still the same problems now. Most of us called it, Chansiri need to back the right man and he failed now he’s making desperate moves and risks making our situation even worse.

Would love to see Meggo back in the dugout at S6. Love it. 

Apart from a longer period of good grace with the fans, how would he be ANY different to Pulis?

Dunno - both I guess mate

 

I find the lack of action given our league position absolutely bizarre

No money = lack of new signings + difficult high profile manager recruitment.

 Not a situation I enjoy any more than anyone else, just reality.

Agreed. Makes you wonder why DC dispensed with Monk’s services when there was a small upturn for his last two matches. Pulis was a car crash of an appointment. Only hope is current incumbent can keep us winning with what scant resources he has in the current squad. Would say DC is asleep at the wheel but in all honesty, from the lack of preparations he made in the summer, he set Monk up for a fail and must have been aware of the outcome. Bloke’s f@@king useless as a chairman and owner. Anyone could pee millions away-like giving your wife a credit card and pointing her in the direction of Harrods.

Club with no money in signing no players shock

 

wondered why 2 of our signings were free? 

Not many clubs in the championship are splashing the cash especially in the bottom half...

Rooney's been mumping about it all day..apparently the efl will not let em buy anyone until wages are paid...

Perhaps the same here...or similar.

And the amount of player contracts coming to an end is worrying

We need clarity as to what is happening.  Biggs now saying likely we will stick with Thompson.  Not necessarily a bad thing.  
 

But yes you do feel bullshitter Chansiri and his cronies have taken you for an absolute ride again.  Create the drama throughout January do sweet FA in the transfer window of note, then let chaos reign for the rest of the season.
 

A warning for you Chansiri - if we do go down to League 1 through your incompetence then you’d better build a bunker to squirm in because the vitriol, hate and backlash will  be on another level.

I wouldn't pay too much to what Biggs says. There is very few people that have inside info on  Wednesday  and Biggs is one of them. Think it will be more his opinion

As usual its Wednesday exceptionalism at its best.

Out of 23 clubs there have been 2 cash buys so far.

A 1.5m and a 1m both to lower leagues.

 

Nobody is buying because theres a fekkin pandemic on.

 

But WE are being played.
