Im sorry Ghost im not picking on you but this is one of the things that is annoying about this place at the moment- so many threads are started when others that are very similar are running at the same time.

Nothing gets talked about in any depth and threads are soon lost onto the 2nd page.

No more signings
 
Yeah, not the point I was making.

But yeah, anything can happen. If we don't sign anyone, I don't think many would be too disappointed. Obviously those on the site we shall not name will be kicking up a fuss - but that's them.

Didn't notice that thread, I thought it was just an opinion, and there is nothing in there that mentions about the fact that the OS is becoming tabloid-esque.

Nobody hates double posting more than me, Sharpy does it all the time, but I'm sure like me then it wasn't intended. Perhaps a moderator could step in at these points?
 

Dismayed to see I am appearing as "replacment knees" rather than the intended "replacement knees". Great start to my messaging career on here.

anyway to the point, I have been reading several posts saying we don't need to sign anyone this window. Can't agree. Even with fernandes I think we should use the money we have made ( faddy and sponsorship - such of it as is available) to strengthen urgently. Not because we aren't satisfied with this year's improvements but because its perhaps our best opportunity of grabbing 4th spot and getting the big dosh we so desparately need. We are surrounded by moneyed clubs all now vyeing (sp?) for the same thing. Next year it will only be harder. We need the cL money more than any of them and we should grab the opportunity before it perhaps slips away.

How many of those clubs around us are buying players? Birmingham have just proven to us that you should buy during January, why? because prices are inflated.
 
Welcome Dunc and I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't make any changes until the summer regarding personnel.
 

It does indeed.

That's why I wanted us to hold out for the amount we did for Faddy. I really felt we could get it.

And we did !!!

even taking into account inflated prices, it's surely a matter of a balance of risks.

What is it going to be like for us to compete for 4th next season if we don't get it this year? Look at what is happening in the league. Apart from all the clubs who are making a charge alongside us this year and the RS, Tottingham are likely to be right up there end of season and despite our guffaws over the soap opera of the geordie nation and king kev its quite possible they will be very serious contenders come this time next season given unlimited transfer kitty. I think we should be seriously looking to do something now before we may get edged out by the rest purely on buying power alone.
 
look at the team... it's one of the best in the league. remember you can only play 11. sure we need one or two quality squad players but no need to worry about these other clubs.

back 4 plus howard.. i guess the strongest certainly outside the top four.

we have some great young players on 5 year contracts.

and king kev should scare wigan really. they are nowhere near us.
