All the posters saying we were good for the first 35 minutes - I thought we were very average. Dinamo Kiev aren't very good either. Christ, half the team are playing poorly. We weren't good but I could see the patterns and structure. Which is at least something. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a couple of weeks into pre-season for most players, some, like we, started earlier, some later. The Bundesliga (Wolfsburg, remember) only starts in two weeks. It was obvious that some people are behind our schedule. That aside ... the transfer market is no shopping centre where you always get what you want at the time you want it. You know that as well as I do. Sometimes you think people only started watching football last June and never seen this before. Not naive- we were told this transfer window was 6 months in the planning. We knew when the CL qualifiers were, not a surprise and once again we've been caught short. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's better to bring in a good player who will take a couple of weeks to be ready than just bringing anyone ego might be immediately available. Aye by that time the leagues lost and we've missed out on CL money again. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I get that but we can't get the ideal players these days. We're skint and have a bloated squad, a load of whom we are unable to shift. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll not know how good these players are unless they play. They can't improve us sitting on the bench or worse, still not fit enough to feature for the B Team. The £1.5M we spent on Igamane seems like a waste when our starting 11 is arguably worse than it was last season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutton_blows_goats 5,329 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 Too many empty shirts. We knew it would be this way. We need a bit of luck here. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

yuddie 1,693 Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 That's harsh on McCausland. Lawrence has been taking the piss for 60 minutes. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
