    Yes Morris is in and out of the team/squad like a yo yo and Larouci isn’t great really plus also been in and out too .


    Well the poor lad will be thrown into 3/4 very tough games and have to stay fit too .

    Good luck to him and might do well but it’s risky .

    To the surprise of nobody. Our friend in Finland is once again defending Gino because it wasn’t realistic to sign players. This has to be Gino’s burner at this point

    We are skint and not going up or down so not surprised no money was spent. Proven strikers would be too expensive but it was disappointing not to pick up a promising prospect from somewhere, or Brenner from Udinese. Perhaps he just didn’t fancy a cold and wet 3 months at our circus ?
    The biggest frustration is all the rumours that build expectation eg Kyprianou(?) who were never going to be able to pay a proper fee for. Free in the summer but presume he will go to another club able to offer him a better package.

    So we’re saying it’s more a B+ than an A-?

    Agree with this. He'll laugh down at us like some of our former managers have.

    Nah, just someone desperate to be noticed. Desperate to be asked to do things at the club like the other ‘fan groups’ and podders.

    Maybe he’s hoping for some free clothes like that fake fan we had in Thailand kept being sent. Whatever happened to them? I assume her contract wasn’t renewed.

    We went into this window with Tom saying there were 4-5 positions he wanted to strengthen and he would like some of them in before the Cardiff match. We come to the end of it with less players, than we started with and the ones in are for positions that we didn't need.
    All in all I'm about as fcuked off with the owners as I have ever been.
    Kyprianou's name has rattled round these boards since before January, Pozzo puts in a laughable offer on the very last day.
    I predict... Next season he will go to a rival team on a free, and be instrumental in giving us a walloping.

    If thats what we were actually doing then I doubt there would be so many angry fans this morning. You cant look at the business we have done in this window and say theres a coherent plan to our recruitment or some sort of vision we are trying to mould the squad towards. We havent even tried to address the most pressing needs of the squad in the here an now.

    We might not have a lot of money but we arnt totally penniless - we still managed to find the best part of 3mil to spend on Dwomah, Keben and Almedia in the summer. All players who might come good in a season or two but whose contributions this season combined could be counted on one hand. We paid 250kish for Vata. There was a fee for this lad from Chelsea and presumably we paid something for Tikvic who has since been replaced. We made some sort of offer for the Peterborough lad. The pot might be small but its mainly been used for player trading rather than building a competitive squad

    And it's not just investment - it's the way we operate with what we have.

    I think most are on the same page.

    If you sell a car you don't install a new turbo, put a body kit on and upgrade the sound system. But you do MOT for 12 months, perhaps replace the bald tyre and give it a polish.

    Pozzo isn't investing money. People expecting heavy investment in a forward right now are having a laugh, but also you'd like him to leave the squad somewhat serviceable.

    If it's her you're referring to, I think she returned to her first love in N7. Like most of our fans.
