Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

[chippy1722]

Be a fun thread to look back on in the spring, this.

So many people will hope we are in a relegation fight just to show you this comment again. Unfortunately we have a large online fan base who prefer us to lose just to make a point.

Fellows improves us straight away. He is cheap so we could get money back it it didn't work out. No brainer but recruitment team only have one line which is being used to redial Southampton every 5 mins the short sighted gimps

I said this place would kick off after we lose to Leeds. Brighton at home will be worse.

We may even have brownhill on the bench as a token effort to appease the fans.

Yes please. Get it done today and stop messing about, then use the rest of the week to ponder and consider a right hand side.

That's their problem la

It's all of our problems. We've won four games in August and September in four years. Even you with your growth mindset must see that that is a problem?

Did Moyes say anything post-game about transfers?

He was asked briefly in the Sky interview after the game but not in the presser.

He can't, and isn't, using it as an excuse now.

 

[Who's_up_for_cumpkins?]

Still no whispers of ANYTHING happening. It's absolutely pathetic. If another one doesn't materialise this week and it's a first XI player then serious questions need to be asked of Kinnear and Hammond. Need to pull their fingers out their a****

Mate we win 3/0 and the same old people will be in here moaning about something.

Do you really think we're going to win 3-0? Genuine question.

Seems that the leaks have been plugged.

Nothing from bobble, not even team leaks.

He has well been cut off.

If he claps dead hard at them in the dressing room they might turn into good footballers.

is he wearing ruby slippers on his hands?

 

[RichCee123]

If he did i agree with him But it shouldn't justify a place on the bench if he can't do a job on the pitch.
Which was how it came across last night.

There was no one else

So what, why would that mean we’re in a relegation battle again next season? Surely if we actually do proper business next summer we should improve and move away from that situation? We could’ve done that this summer but the brains trust at the club decided to hang fire til August thinking that Champions League quality players would suddenly change their mind and want to join us.

As of RIGHT NOW we are one of the worst teams in the league.

If we dont get 4-5 quality players in then - if we stay up this season - we then face the issue all over again of securing those players and the ones who will need shifting out next summer on top: Gueye, Coleman, Patterson etc etc.

We need what they told us they were going to give us: an UNPRECEDENTED SUMMER to break that chain of misery.

They have let us down big time.

Wouldn’t surprise me in the slightest. Reading an article this morning, Kinnear and Hammond were solely responsible for ballsing up transfer windows at their previous club too. It’s a huge concern that we may have hired incompetent people!

It’s very hard to sit here and not wonder what position we’d currently sit in if Thelwell had been given better resources rather than these clowns.

I wanted to keep hold of Thelwell myself, I saw value in who he'd brought in under literally almost impossible conditions financially, he also was after a good few players who post moves sky ticketed in value. Kudus, MGW etc.

I had doubts on Kinnear straight away, Hammond seems like his guy - the others who may change things up aren't in position yet.

Looking at Roma, Kinnear messes up the remaining few days a d we struggle which I believe we will without three-four good players arriving, then he will be sacked by Christmas

I think what you’re suggesting is just an overreaction to yesterday

you've read mr vek's posts on here before haven't you?

He sent out an update - quite a lengthy one the night before the game.

Dave I'm actually quite surprised that you aren't just flat-out suggesting that we're down this season. Unusually positive from you mate!
