  1. Gonne all quiet on the player we put a bid in for last week (Carney?). Suspect as we all thought, it was a ridiculous bid to look good in the press and was never a serous offer. The fact theyve not gone back since shows that. As usual, a lot of talk before the window, turns out to be smoke and mirrors. Expecting a couple of cheap incomings late in the window, after selling a few. Boring.
  2. That line up wouldn't even be good in league 1. Awful all round. Barely even care anymore. Clubs been systematically gutted over many years.
  3. I heard other Champ sides are interested, if thats the case we've got no chance of competing. If I was the player, looking at the circus that is us and our league position, Id also wait to see what other offers come in before agreeing to anything.
  4. Dont think they were his signings. Hes just a yes man...a cheap one
  5. Apart from a brief run of form a couple of months ago we've returned to being dogshit. If we're honest though, performances and results are about representative of the standard of the squad and management these days. The summer transfer policy was the thing that finally broke us. Still think well go down this year.
  6. Not that fussed about Tyjon. If he was that good he'd have been closer to the first team already. If you're refusing contracts before even playing a first team game, that tells me either you or your advisors will be trouble. Its a shame some talented youngsters chase more money from such a young age rather than trying to get first team football. I always think if youre a young prospect, doing well in a lower level first team will put you in the shop window far more than the premier league U21 sides. 3 years after Ash Phillips left, he's still in the championship after 3 loans, but on more money I guess.
  7. How did Henriksson do against Boro? Its so frustrating that any injuries we get seem to be weeks and weeks out rather than the odd knock for a game. Where has Tyjon gone? Has reality now hit that hes not as good as was made out to be over summer.
  8. Posted a message about it in one of the Facebook supporters groups, decent size with around 8k members. As expected the first few replies have not been supportive. Sad that so many fans seem content with the owners. Stockholm Syndrome.
  9. Its on the LET now. Headline seems a bit of a downplay...collection of fans ask for boycott, rather than all the main supporters group in a combined statement. EDIT: just actually read the article. Its a copy and past of the letter. They dont share any of their own views or give any encouragement or caution.
  10. Love the letter. Agree with every single word. My only worry is it is just words that may not be seen or respected by enough supporters that it doesn't have any effect. I sincerely hope the fan base are brave enough to follow through. If it leads to a mass player exodus, administration and relegation..but forces the cancers out it is worth it. Need to spread the word. Get in the media!
  11. Nothing to say anymore really other than were shite all across the pitch and in the dugout. Cheap crap. L1 next year
  12. Why Venkys continue to own us and wont try and sell, despite making large annual losses but likewise wont try and chase promotion to where the big money is...is one of lifes great mysteries. Seems completely pointless. Unless theres some dodgy tax write off scheme going on...which is more likely I suspect. If a billion pound company has a couple of small loss makers, it may save them more in tax gains than the losses we make.
  13. Great news for the lad. From no-where really, complete unknown when signed, no real club pedigree...to performing like he has and now a soon to be international. Good on him. Fuck me though, our squad is in bits at the moment. I know our owners have asset stripped for years, and the summer window was an abomination....but that must be 8 or 9 first teamers unavailable now. Any championship side would struggle with that.
  14. Id take relegation and administration if it purged the current lot out. Imagine a club ran by people who cared. We may never have the funds to compete at the top now but at least decisions would be honest and with good intention
  15. Why do we always concede in injury time either first half or second half. So bad.
