Like with us: I hope the Taylor money was not factored into a break-even budget. I don’t think it would have been. We thought for a while we’d cash in on Jones and SOD with nothing coming of it. One already gone on a free and the other likely to do so this summer. Can never guarantee a sale and how much you’d make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouser2 Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 wonder if the directors will be in at RP in the last moments of this window ----"helping out" to push through a deal like the fiasco of the summer "window" .... All would hoped things would been in place long before now ...but big week ahead one way or another ----and actions will speak a lot more than words or "false promises" by the end of this month Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zorro Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Whatever your views on Dyer and whether he can turn our form around - because he’s only been given the gig until the end of the season, we’re going into another summer where we’re already at least six months behind teams like Motherwell in terms of preparation. When we went through the sham search for a new manager, to replace AA, a manager capable of taking a longer term view of their planning was top of my wish list. This waiting until the last day of the transfer window to try and pick up a bargain is dangerous and damaging to the stability of the club.

Same as in Scotland - below Championship the quality drops off but good scouting can still produce the odd gem. Exactly this. There aren’t many but the odd gem and like you say this is where you need a good scout. This is effectively our price range sadly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are very childish. We are currently winless in 7 and the club is in an unrecognisable state compared to last year. Of course questions are going to be asked as at our current rate we are looking at relegation. We need to step up on and off the park. When a club is not doing well as a paying member to club for tickets/merch and a TIK paying member I am entitled to ask questions about what staff is contributing. I liked Fowler as a player and I have been questioning board decisions and management but you seem to just pick up on one person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piffer Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Looks like we’ve missed out on Christian Eriksen as he’s arrived in Italy to sign for Inter. Leaves us competing with Manchester United for Bruno Fernandes although James Rodriguez might be available on loan from Real Madrid. -4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GCM Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 I have not got any doubt that their are gems to be had in the lower leagues in England and elsewhere. The problem currently is we have a large part of the squad at that standard or slightly above it, to get us out of the hole we are in at present, we need recognised quality, albeit a loan, as we had last season with Mulumbu and Stewart. Longer term, better scouting in these leagues is fine, but not for someone to save us from a disastrous season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mitch14 Posted January 27, 2020 Report Share Posted January 27, 2020 Is take Watt. Quite a few of the clubs around us have brought strikers in already so we would be in with a shout you'd think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
