Pi$$ed As A Mattress 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Please please please sign some bloody players. We are the same every bloody year. Get a grip, forget the Cullum dream and buy some playing staff.....Rant over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cobain18 0 Posted July 1, 2008 I''m sure we will; Roeder has a past record which suggests he knows what he''s doing in the transfer market. As I pointed out in a previous thread; it would be naive of Roeder to do his business in public. He is doing the right thing by keeping his progress private Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WeAreYellows49 0 Posted July 1, 2008 But didn''t GR say he wanted all new players in for pre-season training? That''s today isn''t it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The money should be there, very few championship clubs get home crowds like ours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WeAreYellows49 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Thing is Vern is the money there? Whilst there is nothing wrong with cheap or free players, the fact that as yet they haven''t shelled out a vast amount says to me the big money isn''t there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pi$$ed As A Mattress 0 Posted July 1, 2008 doesn''t help when all the so called "good players" like Paterson, Connelly etc have all slipped away. Whats left and where are they? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I suspect that if there are any big money signings that GR will leave them until the last minute so as not to alert clubs that we may have some money there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is ok for Doncaster to come out with his "from the textbook" shite, but we should surely want to know why a club who gets 25000 plus through the turnstiles every other week cant afford to spend. Perhaps we should all attend the first home game with the word MUG written on our foreheads. That might get the message across. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hog 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Vern, I have been ranting about this on other threads all day, so don''t worry about it! I agree forget investment dreams, acccording to the horses mouth we have had some new investment albeit not from PC, so lets see these wonderful and exciting players we were promised. Otherwise this season is going to be a complete farce. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unless she comes out and categorically says "We have investment" I won''t buy it. The past couple of days have shown just how good the board are at twisting the truth, and the RNS debacle is just another example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inch High aka Inchy.. 405 Posted July 1, 2008 Did Delia hint at investment or was it an embarrased giggle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hog 0 Posted July 1, 2008 Thats true, but at the time many people were convinced that good times were on the way. Then we get the Cullum news and his 20 Mill player fund offer and if that does not happen then I think Delia''s speech will seriously backfire. I can''t see how any fans, even the sheep, would continue to support her in this eventuality! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lincs CR 0 Posted July 3, 2008 Alan Gow''s agent has said the ball as is well and truly in our court, rumors are flying are Ameobi has signed (rather unreliable i know), we have two players from abroad training with us who look likely to sign - get over it, it''s not as though Roeder is sitting there doing NOTHING!What do you expect? 10 signings in 7 days? Not gonna happen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Time to go Delia 0 Posted July 3, 2008 You dont think you need them in for pre season ? its starting to look like we are in deep trouble and dont have any money to buy any players , so far we have spent £250,000 and probably got round paying that by giving Blackpool Gilks .And all this new investment Delia says we have , all a bit strange .
