COLAK sounds like something the doctor would prescribe antibiotics for

We currently have Goldson , Helander , Soutar , Bassey , King and if still here Simpson , think we have enough to be getting on with .

And Katic too

You would do well to get 3 fit and decent out of that but you can always add Lundstrum i suppose.

He is supposed to be a cracking prospect.

Getting close to the squad's Monday flight to Portugal with no business of note yet having been done, in or out. It looks as if we wanted Colak on board for the week on the Iberian peninsular but that is looking increasingly unlikely.

 

The closer to the CL qualifiers we get, the more likely it is going to be a case of relying on the same old. Generally, that doesn't tend to work out well, regardless of how well in Europe we went the season just ended.

 

After the epic 92/93 season, we went out in our first tie against Levski Sofia.

In the summer of 2008, we left our main recruitment drive until AFTER Kaunas had put us out.

 

In the worst case scenario this season, we will play at least 8 games in Europe.

Absolute minimum, that first CL qualifer is worth about 7M euros on it's own. Winning it would guarantee a 5M consolation payment if we were to go out of the Play off round, plus an extra home tie (gate money etc.).

 

If you consider whatever our transfer budget might be this summer, an extra incoming 7M euros has to be huge.

 

30 days until the competitive KO, with the CL qualifier a few days later.

I hope we use the time to act in a timely fashion.

We dont look like we are taking the CL seriously.    You would have thought targets would have been identified and players brought in by now.   The board need to get it together and fast.   This is a real slap in the face to the fans who have backed the team to hilt with their wallets for little return.

Couldn't agree more.

 

At the moment we are stuck complaining about no signings. I want to move on to the next stage where we complain about the quality of signings made.

 

At the current rate of progress it will be September before we get to start complaining about the fitness levels of signings. If we are lucky we can start complaining about the team properly in October.

 

Not acceptable.
