January Transfer window

[Andy]

29th Jan, 2 days to the end of the transfer window.

We've signed a player on loan from a team in the division below us and an OAP free transfer from Plymouth Fucking Argyle.

And that's before you even consider our injury-ravaged first team squad.

This is absolutely ludicrous. We are being run by amateurs at every level above the Head Coach.

Window closes on Monday 3rd Feb, not the 31st Jan. There’s still plenty of time to look busy and deliver nothing.

Only thing I'd say is that we've got 5 days until the window shuts, so ever so slightly less ridiculous, though that only matters if you've got any confidence that those extra days are going to make any sort of difference, and I don't think they will.

We've done nothing in over 4 weeks, so expecting in the last 5 days to get the 4 signings needed, and not just that but proven Championship quality as our manager has highlighted and expects, I'd say is fairyland stuff. 

Bring in that we've got a game on Friday to occupy us and a Sunday when nothing ever happens anyway, there's not much time at all. 

I think we are seeing the signs of increasing desperation though with the 'rumours' of today. I've no doubt they are sat down there glued to their phones ringing around the houses trying and hoping that eventually someone somewhere will agree to a very cheap deal or loan.

Another day is drawing to a close, still no signings!

The young defender at Reading, Schlupp, the Wigan lad and even Bamford all reasonable shouts, one way or another.

Now we’re scraping the barrel to the max.

These names are a far cry from our current links and rumours 

 

depressing that we’ve slowly gone from these names, albeit not the most exciting options, to the options we are now seeing

Funny that Mercer’s return has coincided with Chaddy’s disappearance.

Two sides of the same coin? 😉

My disappearance? Please explained this point?

Two sides of the coin? Been on the beer again

Prepare for last-minute failures---"just couldn't get it over the Line" etc

So start earlier you cretins.

out of the 92 professional clubs in this country,we are by far the worst run,in fact there are semi pro clubs with volunteers who are more efficiently operated than us

Heeeeere’s Chaddy !!!! 🙂

It was a light hearted joke, Chadders.

Are you here for the night, now, to push the positive line? 

[RevidgeBlue]

Can anyone explain why we should be going  for the guy from Hibs?

Doesn't seem to have anything much going for him at all.

It's was stupid post by himself. 

Positive line? Has something happened today? A signing we are all unaware off?.

No.

Been tenuously linked with a few though.

I got told yesterday we're spending a few million, I'm afraid not on players though.

Apparently the steel etc on the stadium requires some kind of fire treatment, I don't know the exact details but told it'll cos a few mil. If he hasn't used it already, that's Waggotts ready made excuse for the lack of transfer spend. I don't tend to read fans forums minutes etc so it may have already been mentioned.

Nothing has been mentioned at the Forum.

Only one reason - cheap as chips/low wage

Eustace’s pre-match presser tomorrow.. When asked, he’ll most likely repeat the weekly “nothings close that he’s aware of” or he’s “still hopeful of 2 or 3 quality players”, time is running out.. shambolic window.
Manager frustrated and fans fuming! 

Things could get a whole lot worse come 11:01pm on Monday night.

So, if we signed Youan, Cissoko and either BTA, or Adebayo with Siggy outgoing, are we all set!?

I've lost any optimism I ever had. No matter who we sign we'll fuck it up one way or other.

Come on, Chaddy..

I know when I sit down for my porridge in the morning, I’ll come on here to find you have spent the night defending Rovers’ honour 😉
