has the poor January window ruined our season?

[dholliday]

there is a pattern that has formed long beyond this january window

I think you're right, but does it explain this?

Martinez told us that he had money to spend. Martinez chose not to spend it, Martinez chose to loan in a crock to replace a permanent squad striker. Martinez chose to sign a player of questionable fitness and quality to the squad (McGeady).


Moyes never told us he had money when he didn't. He bought for small chips and dug out some gems. He also didn't use the loan system as presumably in his opinion he didn't trust the lack of permanence (and lack of asset-quality) about it.

Kenright isn't 100% responsible for this season going to pot...or is he?

Has anyone pushed this yet?

It needs pushing like. Joint 6th with a game in hand on the two above us, playing football widely admired.

 

[nsno-chris]

Is it not right to state that the board have been pathetic and need chasing?

I'd have thought the facts were very thick on the ground given the last 14 years of absolute failure to put a penny into the club.

Maybe I have it wrong and they've actually done a good job?

Is it right that the managers does not take any blame for spending 20 days chasing an injured, unproven, young striker when we were short in other areas of the team???

We are 7th, our football isnt widely admired, even Jose said it was weak in the final 3rd.

My sons Under 11s team attacks better than we do.

He takes blame but his blame is explained by the fact that Billy Liar has just plundered £17m of his manager's player trading surplus thus leaving him looking in the gutter for replacements.

ALL ROADS LEAD TO BILLY LIAR.

Swansea's game was widely-admired too. Widely-admired smacks of plucky small-time talk. We want results.

You're right in that I was consistently calling for his head as far back as the Reading cup defeat. But I can still appreciate his strengths and what he did good for us.

and I don't hate anybody. Hate is badly-negative energy.

hahaha he takes the blame, but its not really his fault??

Ok Dave, not his fault that he added a crock and a fat irishman to his squad. You're argument is pathetic at best

I heard somewhere that the crash of the US banking system was all Kenwirghts fault as well, the thespian caused one of the world biggest financial crisis's. DAMN YOU BILLY, DAMN YOU TO HELLL

The lad's calling Martinez out as a liar. If that's true, then the future is bleak indeed. Lying owner and lying manager.

I for one don't believe that, I choose to believe Martinez when he said he had money to spend and chose not to spend it. It's his mistake, not Kenwright's.

Everyone lies.

Anyone who believes press releases and manager interviews are anything other than pr exercises is very naive.

Every time we get beat the bunions wade in with both boots.
Stoke beat arsenal last week by playing to their strengths,we lost to Arsenal by not playing to ours.

 

[Allezfan]

Maybe you're right...

Moyes was never selling Lescott, Kenwright was never taking less than 60 million for Rooney, martinez was going to wait for the summer before getting mcgeady, etc., etc.

You're soft if you get upset about that sort of stuff, it all does good strengthening our bargaining positions.

 

[bluelife]

Played well enough but got beat. Will beat worse teams. Spend wisely in Summer push for top 4 next season. Repeat until money comes in.
