Who is to blame for the lack of new signings?

[Deulofeumygod]

We have been a basket case club for over 5 years. Getting a new stadium and owners who look like they know what they are doing will not suddenly make champs league/Europe quality players want to join us.

Signing Branthwaite was a massive statement but if you look at the current squad and you were a young player with lots of potential and already proving yourself in Europe, would you join our team or a team in or around European places?

It will take time to make us desirable again. We are also still hamstrung by financial constraints.

When we have got ‘quality’ players before, we have played paid big wages and that was part of our problem. Don’t think TFG will overpay or make the same mistakes.

All of the above

Bar the cheddar on sourdough obvs.

 

[Thetigerblue]

Kenwright and Moshiri.

 

[BlueStevie35]

I don’t think there’s any real singular blame being honest

Should we have got Branthwaite and IGG done quicker? Yeah

Did we negotiate too long on Doucoure, Keane and DCL’s futures? Probably

Should we have sorted out the two hires that can’t start for another two months back in April/May? Absolutely

Is Moyes dithering? Judging by his post match comments last night I don’t think so

Are the targets too ambitious? No not for me

Are we fans too picky? Yes, we moan about wanting good players but then we get linked to good players and the attitude is ‘he won’t come here’ then make made up situations about crap players like it’s more a given

 

[Billy Liar]

Kenwright and Moshiri.

Same as these owners.

 

[Timbucktoo]

We`ll sign players late in the window. When you`re hovering around the bottom 6 in the PL for so many seasons most players will take a look at other options before signing as its a lot easier to coast along at a mid table team than it is to be in a relegation scrap.

 

[James Patrick]

The players we're targeting and the clubs they play for are to blame.

 

[Bedfordblue]

1. Kenwright for years of negligent decline, leaving us unattractive from a footballing perspective.
2. Mosh / Uzzy for years of financial mismanagement.
3. Probably most responsible are the Fans.

 

[D410]

Apparently the fans for being too impatient despite our year in year out track record.

Now we have Moyes and Angus doing PR to cover there arses.

We need to solve it now and do the post mortem when the window shuts.

 

[Blue83]

Just not offering enough Cheese on toast

 

[GrandOldTeam]

The answer is TFG.

It's always TFG.

Its their decisions. It's their setup.

The poll should have just put;

Moyes
Recruitment/Leeds Exec Hires
TFG

I reckon Moyes has a different view on profiles of player. Disconnect. And/or the recruitment folk aren't good enough.

I doubt that any single party is entirely to blame for our lack of transfer business, but nobody can say for sure without knowing the inner workings of the club. Following Moyes' comments, I am confident that our business will pick up pace over the next couple of weeks leading up to the Roma friendly, starting with Aznou.

 

[Noisy noise annoys]

Clearly he is…. We go with what we got camp

It’s July

Please vote and discuss what you think the reason is for the lack of new signings.

The fans crying putting players off
