The ten days of Ho Ho Ho

Recommended Posts

In ten days time we are staring at one of the most important transfer windows in recent times.

What do we know?

* the Board have not got money to spend, or will not trust Neil with money to spend, without selling players first.

* I think we still need defenders, Neil thinks we need strikers, he will probably buy midfielders.

* in order to fund any purchase, the Better players need selling, Turner, Whittaker, Martin etc will not attract a decent fee so we anticipate they will still be haunting the club come end of January. Unfortunately, one or two of the better players will almost certainly go.

* because of the financial situation, we will make derisory offers for players and subsequently be outbid, then at the end of the month our players will ship out undervalued the money will be spunked on a midfielder and we will fail to get a loan in at last minute.

But hey, it''s Christmas

I''m positive.

Quote - ''anyone who knows anything, and I mean anything, about football knows A.N must go''.

I back him.

My hope for the new year is all the people who plan to boycott do just that, we need new blood in the stands, and fresh applause will happily follow.....the boys in yellow.

1- during the last transfer window the club told us this

2- I know for a fact that I think we need defenders. I hear Neil say we are not scoring enough goals. History has shown that Neil more likely to buy a midfielder.

3- I know of no club who will splash out proper money on Turner, Whittaker or Martin. We have had interest for our better players, history shows that we tend to go through this last minute cycle during recent windows.

4- It''s still not quite Christmas
