Baldyboy 1 Posted January 31, 2013 Can''t believe all this about not trying hard enough to get players in!! The club tried to get Hooper, Graham, Davies but if clubs wont play ball what can City do? Also if the player doesnt want to come then how is that McNallys fault? I cannot believe what I am reading, the likes of samba going to QPR for 12.5 mill and on a 100k a week even though they are bottom with no guarantee of survival, would people have wanted us to be stupid and risk administration after the club has worked so hard to put us back on such a good financial footing? Lets all get behind the lads, especially the new ones, and help ensure we stay up starting with a result at moneybags Rangers on saturday! Then when we secure our survival watch the club push on to the next level when they are debt free!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Hmm.I''d quite like a race horse. Preferably a good one. Sprinter Sacre will do...And a 67 ''Chevy Impala.Also, Dianna Agron would do nicely. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cantiaci Canary 610 Posted January 31, 2013 Some people want any excuse to tear their hair out, gnash their teeth and sneer at their own football club. If we hadn''t signed Becchio and Kamara they would complain.If we had signed Hooper they would complain. Anyone who seriously believes that McNally hasn''t done everything possible for the good of this club is bonkers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norfolkn Good 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Agreed Baldy. Were better today than we were yesterday and should be good enough to not worry about finishing bottom 6Glad we didnt risk it all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Syteanric 1 Posted January 31, 2013 Stig, we bid, the clubs didn''t sell.... What more could we do?If I was to knock on your door and offer to buy your house leaving you on the street you would simply give it to me would you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gingerpele 0 Posted January 31, 2013 [quote user="baldyboy"]GP, I thought all you want is to have a BJ from BJ!!![/quote]Sorry baldyboy, I don''t swing that way.Although, funny story, went out Tuesday night with some of my course mates, and before we even got to the ''gay night'' at the club, I asked a guy to marry me, he is lovely, but also straight, so not quite sure how its going to work, we''ve got a few ''issues'' to work out, but i''m sure it''ll be fine...

Stig 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Stop using that as an argument.We opened our wallets and showed everyone in the footballing world how much was inside - mistake oneWe arsed about with our Hooper bid - mistake twoWe admitted interest in pretty much everyone linked with us - mistake threeWe didn''t get anyone of our "big" targets, e.g. Rvw - mistake fourYes, Becchio and Kamara will probably be alright (maybe even decent) additions. I''m dissapointed we didn''t actually use any of the money we flaunted about. It''s frustrating. It just smacks of trying to keep the fans happy and quiet. I''m annoyed that we didn''t put our foot down and sign some big talent. Graham fell through, rvw fell through, Hooper fell through blah blah blah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stig 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Oh and let''s not forget we never showed any real signs of getting in some defensive cover that would stop us getting drummed 5-0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyboy 1 Posted January 31, 2013 so bidding for Davies wasnt defensive cover? Wake up you idiot, we tried but clubs wouldnt sell get over it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stig 0 Posted January 31, 2013 [quote user="baldyboy"]so bidding for Davies wasnt defensive cover? Wake up you idiot, we tried but clubs wouldnt sell get over it![/quote]Of all the players in the footballing world, no one would sell? Maybe we should have identified more targets!

Gingerpele 0 Posted January 31, 2013 Stig, first you''re disappointed because we publicly acknowledged our targets, then you''re moaning we haven''t identified more defensive targets. Well we probably did, they just stayed private. And for any reason out of multiple possibilities none have signed.Calm down, and try to look on the bright side.

Baldyboy 1 Posted January 31, 2013 how do you know we didnt just because they werent made public? Jeez you really are an idiot if you believe we didnt try and get other players, one of which was Olsson of Blackburn, another defender too!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
William Darby 0 Posted January 31, 2013 We bid, we didn''t get Hooper.I shows that we''re not prepared to spunk inflated prices on players and risk our finances. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
