colneycanary 0 Posted June 12, 2008 Our situation is a little different from the other teams. We only have half a team. Where are all these premiership quality players Roeder was on about? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,751 Posted June 12, 2008 As has been said by others on other (very similar!) threads, please point me to all these fantastic signings that are being made by other Championship sides and I might perhaps start to worry. The simple fact is that there have been very few transfers involving players who we would/should be interested in. Though I''m starting to think that perhaps we should have bought one of them, just to stop this daft moaning....but then you''d just be moaning instead about why we signed [insert any name here], as he''s crap!

NCFC_Thain 0 Posted June 12, 2008 I''m starting to worry now, we need alot of players. If we only needed 2/3 I would say we can afford to wait for the qaulity players to become avalible, but we need back ups as well. Not every signing this season will be a star but we need to bring some in soon. None in by this time next week i''ll be a nervous wreck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tetteys Jig 831 Posted June 12, 2008 Look at leicester last year, rushed into it and messed things up! we will have signings soon, most of the people who have been linked with us are still waiting for an imminent move anyway, theres only earnmore i''ve seen go after we''ve been linked. Why worry now!, save it for July at least! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In 2005 we were worried about the level of transfer activity into the Club.At the time we had the better part of 10 million quids worth of strike partnership in Ashton and McKenzie yet we still couldn''t compete, Were things any better in 2006 or 2007, can anyone convince me we''ve strengthened the team since 2005?Can anyone convince me not to be more than a little worried about next season?[quote user="Branston Pickle"] (From August 2005)[quote]Nope i say keep him he will turn the corner ,worthy in for me.[/quote]Me too....Worthy is far from immune from criticism, but I can''t really see the point in him going at this point in time. Mybiggest query of Worthy is is on transfers. It is perhaps of littlesurprise the team isn''t performing as a unit given that we shipped 10out of last season''s squad in the close season (replacing fewer), any 5of who would have been in the starting XI. We then compounded this bynot even replacing the ''key'' leaver (Francis), which is just plainstupid. However, balancing this is the fact that whilst wehaven''t been at our best in any game, we could have easily won eachwere it not for the woodwork (other games) or just poor finishing(yesterday) - I don''t think Leeds were particularly good, and on almostany other occasion would have been beaten. IMO we still have plenty of time to sort things, and MUST give Worthy a chance - Id say at least until Xmas.[/quote] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
