The truth is we don’t really know what is going on behind the scenes. It could be all on track for our first choice signings, or it could be chaos, disharmony and a list of rejections. I don’t really understand people who are 100% confident it’s...

Crap players are very getable, we could agree deals for Lindstrom and Harrison this afternoon and have them holding jerseys in BMD on Monday. Truth is if you want a McAtee or that profile, you are at this very moment competing with Leverkusen...

There's a paradox at play: if you're a fan who hasn't been following a successful football club for years then success isn't demanded. And success is really the only 'justified' driver for higher ticket prices. Our fans know that success isn't...

As Kenny Rogers used to sing "You gotta know when to hold 'em." It likely fits the ethos of the Texan Friedkins too. They will either produce the goods in the next fortnight or so, and receive much praise for their cunning, or it will largely...

Good points there. There is some medium to be found between steady commercial growth and preservation of the community ethos of the club. If they seek to do so. We are so far behind clubs we once considered as peers, and others, now though, that...

You'd imagine at the least that in the case of all three players (Luiz included), they've been given some initial "encouragement" to pursue things further. There seems to be enough noise about each to suggest genuine interest. That might amount...

its unimaginative just scouting for powerful direct wingers like bakayoko or industrious ones like fellows. why cant be we be more progressive like brighton or even coventry where sakamoto is doing well for them. in fact, the apparent lack of...

Maybe this is cope but I think we are pursuing very ambitious difficult deals that will genuinely significantly improve the team which is partly why we haven't made many signings yet. If we had taken Forest's approach from a few years ago we...

We'll be trying for a certain calibre of player, who'll have better options/certainly in no rush to join point deduction FC circus. I'm sure it doesn't help by us deciding to lash Thelwell/Purdy etc, and bring in a load of new recruitment faces...

About where expected. If we're no further forward in 2-3 weeks I'll be a bit more concerned. Never expected everything to be fixed this summer but we can't be going into the season without at least a couple more in, and really we need more...

Yes, if only for my mental health. I trust the process and the new transfer team though, for now.

Probably yes, but if you see other teams they are not further in the process.

I'd have liked them to be more active, wouldn't we all. It's all cloak and dagger at the moment - crunch time is the next fortnight though. Need to step it up now. There seems to be a firming up of links to Luiz, Kubo, and McAtee. Maybe we'll...

"Newly emboldened summer plans" Have things changed dramatically recently ? Have they just found out the price of selling the Women's team to themselves ? If that is anywhere near correct that's one helluva budget.

Kubo would be my pick of the bunch personally. Be made up if we managed to bring him in.
