Salopian 1 Posted January 31, 2008 The ex-manager and now GR have both said that it is very difficult in January to sign players who are any good. Other managers are not wanting to part with their better players, except at very high price and with time to find a replacement, who will also need a premium.We need good stop gaps, becaue the squad is small, but now is not the time to splash out. In the summer there will be Bosmans, and other managers more relaxed about letting good players go. Who knows, one of these stop gaps could become a future transfer signing?

The sensibleoption is to get permanant signing in the summer rather than pay overthe odds now. Some of our better loans over the years have been boughtso it''s an ideal opportunity to trial them, not waste the cash on theLisbies or Elvis'' of the world and cement our safety in thechampionship for this year. Ambition? I''d rather we have morecash in the bank at the end of the season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

renegade tootsie 0 Posted January 31, 2008 Oh Get real. We are going to be ok after a disasterous start. Why throw cash at players who are overpriced right now, especially when comparable players may be free in the summer and still leave us a transfer budget? Roeder has connections and will get players, and good to see he is not as flippant as people like you want him to be with our transfer budget. Thank god you dont run the club it would have done a Leeds years ago.
