I know it's just a thing that people say, but I would be amused if at some point a manager suggested that half hearted commitment was fine from their players!
Thanks for the summary Jan. Let's hope for a positive Thursday outcome.
It’s probably ok if you’re Dimitar Berbatov. |

LWB would be more than a boost, we probably don't have one right now.
Agreed. And the position we have heard least rumours about. Getting a left footed player of the ilk of Hutton would be absolutely huge. |

I’d say it was Brooklyn Genesini that’s going to the league one club

A helpful summary, so thanks Jan.
You suggest the UGM is still a go then and that the third of the ones mentioned on Sat is now off.
Later you ref Edwards regarding captain? So edwards wasn't one of the three, and could still be done?
As we all have said getting the 2 cb and lwb before Sat will be a real boost. Lets hope they are in soon.
Yep very helpful Jan. thanks. I’m with you Riddick. I just assumed Edwards would have been the one that went to the L1 club given OGM and FGR need to sort stuff. Young was obvious the other one of the 3. Hopefully Jan can make this clearer this morning. Really appreciated |

The windup and meltdown was good, I got angry too.
Thanks for the summary Jan. Sounds difficult for Flynn in the transfer market because our budget isn't as competitive as others.

I was there tonight and ultimately alot of what I have read was incorrect.
From what I can remember.
-Flynn will bring in 2 CBs and a LWB ideally by end of week
-He wants a squad of 23-24 players
- The reason players have not come in as soon as he hoped is simple, 5 clubs in lg 2 are paying high end lg 1 wages and some players have been holding out for one of them to buy them and so would not commit to any lower offers from other clubs. We also lost out on a striker he used to manage going elsewhere for that reason (The guy that went to Walsall i think)
- Our budget is good, but he wont pay silly money for players that are not worth it.
Basically what I've been saying on here for weeks |

That was my assumption too. I saw Points West last night, who did a little article on the new season. They were at the training ground with Town and I could see that Rashawn Scott was there as was Ward and I *think* the tall, thin, blonde defender that was mentioned a few pages back from Portsmouth/Plymouth (or something like that) who had a horrific injury record. |

Well it’s a bit more subtle than that - we are fishing in the same pond as some as the clubs who are paying over the odds. Obv they can’t sign all the players so we need to be patient. We could have fished in other ponds and sign lots of players but long term not the best option. |

still not impressed with the recruitment. I get what he's saying but is he also saying clubs not in the top 5 spenders have bought in at over the odds/bought shit?
at least he's said 2xCB and LWB required, just like us "pathetic" fans have

I dont think it was filmed recently, Ronan Darcy was in it too |

As this seems to have got to a few people, just to clarify - this comment was directed at the troll rather than people getting frustrated at a lack of signings. We're all entitled to an opinion of course, but the shit stirring is pathetic. |
