Jim Smith 2,317 Posted January 11, 2016 Some of our fans should go and support the Bank of England such is their delight with all this money we are hoarding! I will give McNally credit when he manages to sign some of our main targets in this window not for flogging off more of the squad this no doubt helping himself to a bonus for "meeting financial targets" even if we go down.

Do you mean the goal scorer and top class centre back a lot of posters seem to believe are our ''main targets"? I was under the impression that we''d already signed two (and in all probability three) of our main targets -- Jarvis, Pinto, (Naismith). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kingston Yellow 220 Posted January 11, 2016 I''ll reserve judgement on how sensible a move Grabs to Bournemouth is until we know who''s coming in. If the quoted £7m/£8m is correct, then it would be difficult to turn down, assuming that all the money (along with the cash we didn''t spend in the summer + BJ''s transfer fee) is going to get reinvested in the squad. However, it does have some of the hallmarks of when we loaned Basing to Watford last season. Which was a spectacularly stupid thing to have done.Similar issue too. Player falls out with the manage, so we ship him out to a rival. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Indy 3,297 Posted January 11, 2016 It''s funny to see just how much profit we have made on a list of players in the Championship!Even the likes of Etuhu ended up relegated!Goes to show how good our manager was to get the best out of a squad made up of championship players!Makes me think how well we''ve done to have the last 4 out 5 seasons up here.

Well b back 3,200 Posted January 11, 2016 WilloWill we be signing a replacement for Grabban ? or is Naismith the replacemant ?Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
major canary 0 Posted January 11, 2016 McNally has done an incredible job when you think we were almost bankrupt when he took over and in League 1. Now in premiership, and financially stable, and he has brought in to the club probably the two best managers we have ever had. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pete 318 Posted January 13, 2016 Another 10 years in the Championship will rectify the debt free situation. Need to invest now to ensure that doesn''t happen. Seems little happening in getting business done early in fact nothing happening. What''s being done to bring in a CB?Used to be a mantra that any money brought in goes to improving the team well lets see it rather than improving the bank balance.

ZLF 274 Posted January 13, 2016 there was no get all our business done early message; merely that we would do some business early and be dependent on others for later signings.2 signings done; nearly 3 weeks to go. Not getting naismith isnt the end of the world if he doesnt sign, as he didnt even solve one of the team two key issues.Focus on getting at least a point today while the scouts work to get the right players who want to be here in.

norfolkngood 1,086 Posted January 13, 2016 so nothing to do with coaches managers making them better players all about McNally this is the problem it is all about McNally and yes when we are selling players hardball can get you money but when you are trying to sign players it is not often the case when you need a striker and a good one like us no point trying to play hardball look at me delia I saved 500 k aren''t I a good boy $hit well done DM you saved us 500k but it took us till the end of the window or 5 months in Naismith case and what could that player done for us in that time frame and earned us points to keep us up !

ZLF 274 Posted January 13, 2016 oh the misnomered wise shepherd; if you are going to burn me for facts can you at least both use the quote function properly and get your facts right. we have two signings in jarvis and pinto - whats factually selective about that? Jarvis frees up a loan slot which we will fill in the last week in Jan - depending on who is availablethe youngster is simply future planning but with the likelyhood of not playing in the prem so not mentioned.
