The Summer Transfer Window (Press Submit)

I think many think that a lot is much worse than it is and they have never been involved in running a football club, management or board anywhere -

Agree regarding Hyam. We need a better CB to partner Carter. -

Not all. I have nothing towards either Danes or Swedes. As I said I loved the football we played under JDT. When it was good it was absolutely fantastic. I loved his Charisma and was very proud of Rovers under JDT. He made several players progress under him, but also had his flaws. These flaws became very transparent when he didn't get his will. -

Was it his smile? Charisma or footballing wise? First half against Norwich certainly was JDTesque footballing wise -

It's always easy to come with such noises after you have failed miserably. -

Im very impressed that everyone knows everything about contract situation, club lies, JDTs feelings and everything going on at board level. -

Thanks for the explanation. We then had a horrible situation in the club with a manager who wanted out and we were stubborn and stuck with him. Impressive that we had such good results with a manager who wanted out. -

The owners demanded he pay out remaining money on his deal? Sorry, I don't understand what you mean here -

Was the only reason that we nosedived under JDT that he didn't want to be here anymore? I loved the football under JDT, but he didn't have any plan B at all. He didn't make us hard to beat and I question his way of man-managament. -

On a positive not Burnley are getting stripped for good players; Sander Berge ready for Fulham and hopefully Benson to Leeds. -

Tried to quit?? How difficult could that be..... The thing is for an up and coming manager like JDT getting fired would be very negative for his CV. As I said if the results was good or even okay he wouldn't have gone from the club. -

I am 100% sure that JDT wouldn't have quit IF the results had gone better than they did. I think he found himself in a Catch22 situation where he had to look for a job elsewhere to avoid getting fired. I think Broughton realised he was never getting any real money out of these people and so turned to the 'loan with option' route in a desperate bid to be able to recruit reasonable quality, but again, easier said than done. IF You look at GB`s record in Bodø Glimt where he came from, it was quite good, however there was no uproar in BG when he left and they have continued to do equally good in not better with the transfers after he left. He was no magician. I think he said the right things, but he hasn't been able to find a new job. However he did give us SS who we sold for a nice profit -

Always the same noises. We talk our own football club down in the drain. JDT didn't walk, did he? -

If we can get Dembele on a cheap I would like that signing. potential bargain and JE is the best to know if his attitude is correct or not. He was a brilliant player for Brum first months under JE. Could be very shrewd business. -

We really should have dealt with that situation better. Lazy backtracking from Dolan, JRC and Hedges. Hyam not quick enough in neither feet nor head. -

Watch JRC, I was fuming. He just trots back. He should be sprinting. High difference when Weimann and especially Siggy came on. Think Dolan and JRC needs replacing. Yuki is as good as Dolan in his role. -

Maybe Posh likes us a bit after we just gave them a couple of million? 😉 on a side note - Dilan Markanday has found his league 9 in rating in first match for Chesterfield. Two assists. -

It's quite understandable though. He is 29 years old, doesn't have any particular attributes such as pace, height, technique - he is just a good allround player with a diehard attitude and one heck of a goalscorer. However if he starts missing he has nothing going for him. It's a risky signing for Ipswich. He is unproven at the highest level. Will be very interesting to follow his career. -

SS was a proper professional! Loved that guy and his goals! Time to bring him in on Fantasy, eh? 😉 Will be interesting to see if Dolan, Siggy or someone else step up. I think our goals will definitely be more spread across players this season. my first priority signings in the remainder of the transfer window would as others have said be a NEW GK and LB. especially invest in these two positions and loan some pacey, tricky wingers from prem. I agree with Bowler though. Only 25, scored for Forest preseason. Would be a great move for both parties I think.
