Dean Coneys boots 1,398 Posted January 16, 2016 Morty would defend the board if we were slipping out of the football league. You wonder if he is one of them! Criticism this season is entirely justified. We have shown zero ambition and risked the same back 4 that got us relegated last time. Unforgivable and might be our last chance for many seasons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The lack of transfer dealings so far could really cost us our position in this league. If you''re happy with our business so far than good for you, unfortunately I do not share you''re optimism!

dibbler 0 Posted January 16, 2016 Afobe may have cost 10-12m but at least his wages would have been affordable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clint 221 Posted January 16, 2016 It''s a fair point. We''ve had 4 matches so far in Jan of which we''ve been heavily beaten in 3 of them. We look terrible at the back and offer nothing going forward. If we continue to play like this and don''t get any players in soon, we''ll really be in the brown stuff.You may have noticed the other teams have all started picking up points, probably due to having already made good use of the transfer window.

Essjayess 307 Posted January 16, 2016 iron stan...dear oh dear. If City wanted Afobe badly enough they would have gone all out between 2nd and 8th of Jan. to get him. On 7th Jan Kenny Jackett stated there had been no interest, no offers, for the guy. Bournemouth made a very quick swoop for him on 8th Jan. When he virtually signed for them, a reporter asked Alex about Afobe, his reply was not interested. So why would the Board spend big money on a guy that Alex had lost interest in?
