Nixon called waggott a supremo - his name and articles should be banned from these forums absolute stain that man is

You can’t really be comparing players not playing for higher calibre teams than ourselves to the likes of Birmingham and Plymouth surely? That’s a ludicrous take Armstrong is fit and available would be my deciding factor over the two so again stats to me are irrelevant fitness isn’t and the last part about the rest is on JE if these are his players I’d agree but I suspect they are not so would be a tad unfair to blame him if he didn’t get the players he asked for in

I still think ‘ can call it negative / glass half empty’ whatever we have been in fantastic position 3 jans running we as fans have the right to ask the question of previous failings and lack of investment/ambition who wouldnt question it after what’s gone before? we have a solid championship team but as shown 1/2 injuries in key positions and our form took a nosedive. So all we ask is for some help and I’m sorry but forshaw isn’t that (don’t care if he was available/cheap) Garrett could have done the same if not better we got 3 experienced bodies in yesterday which saved an abysmal window let’s be honest it’s no slight on the team or JE but fans have the right to ask the question of what do venkys what out of us

Elliot confirmed interest in schlupp, bamford and danns said bbd was never on the cards theres still a massive issue though Paul. Fans can feel rightly aggrieved or lied to as waggott openly told us that ffp isn’t an issue he said there is money to spend and venkys will support that. All these loans and short term deals would suggest that’s not the case now Ribiero and Dennis for me could be really really good signings. But as fans we have the right to ask why the last day? Dennis clearly wasn’t their top target so who was and what was the reason for moving on? my big issue is the timing and I’m sorry not for one second am I having it’s hard as a valid excuse. Plenty other teams got business done well before yesterday so to me that’s not good enough reason what’s the plan? I’d love to know like is this the ‘all in make or break’ short term signings for top 6? As come the summer we could be losing around 11 players and likely the manager too

That’s the gamble yes I agree been out of the squad for forest so assuming he wasn’t close to being top target or it could have easily been done earlier Iv stressed numerous times on this forum this month we missed a trick with the block of fixtures we had I genuinely believe we left 3/4 points out there - al hamadi was my first choice think we should have been all over that but I do think Dennis is a signing I can get behind but as you said how long for and is it too late time will tell

I certainly wouldn’t have danns and bamford in the ‘lofty’ talk category schlupp would have been good but too dear bbd didn’t want to come back I agree in the main regarding our transfer window and nobody should be defended but when breaking players down in isolation compared to this time yesterday it ended better than we thought

3/4 weeks doak 2 months sunderland fans not happy said this is the 3rd player signed on loan whilst injured we wouldn’t have known about the injury it was picked up on the medical so a stroke of luck for us for a change

I’d have picked Armstrong too given he would be more match fit just a shame he only became available when we likely had the other deals done

It’s a pointless comparison truth be told two totally different players

Woodrow dennis and Ribiero wouldn’t have been registered on time for tonight likely all in squad for Sundays cup game Kargbo will get minutes tonight

That’s like saying any teams top performer means the manager influence is irrelevant - silly pep didn’t win the league - haaland did

If he got 8-10 for the remainder of games we have I’d be delighted this comparison thing is irrelevant really so many different variables can affect a stat sheet etc two different players two different playing styles two different teams / set ups see come may

Failing a medical doesn’t automatically mean a deal is off it’s up to the club buying if they wish to pursue or not

Conceded 3 last night - not convinced Boros approach will work myself gone very very top heavy but ‘on paper’ they have done the best yes

Conor Chaplin - is injured so isn’t match fit proven O’reilly - city must need him so not sure on this one tbh along with the loan add ons of must play etc Armstrong - only became available late yday so assume we had our deals done ali - Hamadi - agreed I think he was the one we should have been all over from day one danns - could be anything and reported to be injured so maybe dodged a bullet agree with the rest though we should have been on the ball a lot sooner regarding incomings that we did get - I am confused on the Woodrow one but Iv settled myself on it overnight as a bench player he could be ok he can drop into the 10 role if cantwell is injured can play up top too dennis is the gamble of course but what a gamble he could be just a shame itl likely mean another 2 league games missed before we see him - I think he’s quality (fully fit) pace power can score again though how quick can we get him up to speed and where will we be by that point
