Appalling if true.

 

[ExmouthNeil]

As long as we don't lose Rosario... Oh no wait.......

 

[jordan210]

Why do I feel like we are going to lose a player or even two late tonight with no chance to replace

How exciting

 

[cc84cov]

Next club that comes in for robins he will go I think,how many off the books ? Acadmy lad sold for reported 400k season ticket sales high as well as weekly attendances we are in a good position and we seem unlikely to do anything

Shocker if so

Be absolutely fuming.

You know how it works at this club mate I fully expect one to go late

 

[Liquid Gold]

I doubt we’re going to have as good a chance of promotion as this before we’re relegated again and we’re just not bothered.

 

[Leamington Pete]

Heard a whisper. Might need a stiff drink before I put it on here

 

[Deleted member 5849]

How can anyone be satisfied with SISU, seeing all the teams around us strengthen significantly in this window and we need to ship out 8 players to bring in a LB?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not satisfied, that much is clear but... not sure shipping out Hilssner, Rowe, Jobello and co. is particularly weakening us, or saving us much in the way of cash!

Just do it, you'll feel better once it's out there.

Just put what you are gonna say mate we haven’t got time for games Pete

Budget was set in May and since then we’ve sold a record number of season tickets and beaten our predicted attendances as well as selling any number of our thousand first team shirts and signing new sponsorship deals.

We don’t need a magic money tree, we need to be allowed to spend the money we generate.

What’s the sales pitch for a ST next year? Gotta buy one to support the interest payments because it isn’t going into the playing squad.

Before someone brings up Derby or Reading we’re not talking dropping a £20m transfer kitty. 1 loan to the end of the season in a position we’re crying out for help in would be something after moving on 6 players.

Exactly this. There’s no fat left to trim really. Maybe Jones (who can’t be on much), maybe Shipley (also won’t be on loads as an academy player on a L1 contract). Maybe one or both of Allen and Kelly, both of which just got new contracts and one of which is currently in the starting XI and the other is injured.

Senior squad is:

Moore/Wilson
Kane/Dabo
Maatsen/Bidwell
Hyam/Rose
Fadz/??
JCS/??
Hamer/Allen
Sheaf/Kelly
O’Hare/Jones
Györkeres/Godden
Waghorn/??

That’s basically a match day squad when everyone’s fit. Two injuries and you’re down to kids. And we’ve currently got 4 and another 3-4 with match fitness issues.

Realistically if we’re to continue our progress we need 5/6 players in the summer. Have we even got the budget for that? If then, why not now? If not then, when?

 

[Terry_dactyl]

I’d be ok with us not getting anyone if they announce Hamer signing a new contract.

 

[cc84cov]

Boddy is a puppet pass it on

 

[Leamington Pete]

If I’m right I’ll be back on here being very smug. If I’m wrong I’ll disappear and pretend it wasn’t me!

@Leamington Pete are you there we need you

I disagree I think going into next season the squad is in a healthy position. We would need some depth in areas but hardly a rebuilding job in the summer.

Ok tell us then

Don't fall for it!

 

[cc84cov]

@Leamington Pete Pete come in I repeat Pete come in

Naughty naughty, someone hasn't been taking those massive "unforeseen costs" into account

 

[cc84cov]

Don't fall for it!

Stay out of this Larry he’s got into and we want/need it

 

[djr8369]

Those loans are for development or to set up future deals. Doubt it’s taken much off the wage bill.

 

[gspotgaz]

I’m in disbelief we aren’t signing another attacker … that could honestly be the difference for us to scrape into playoffs …

5-6 players isn’t rebuilding, it’s replacing loans and adding backup. Assuming Walker leaves and Jones doesn’t turn into Messi, we need a ST and an AM just to be back where we started. Fadz being the age he is means another CB is likely needed.

That’s 5 players to maintain us. Personally I’d like backup for Hamer as well.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

SBB already said we aren’t getting anyone. I take his word as gospel.

We may need a replacement for Hamer first.

Petes going for 5 minutes of fame

Can see it now. Coventry fans don't get to bed just yet! *sell best player 1 minute before deadline*

Fear a last minute sale with no chance of getting a replacement and instantly loaned back to us for the season

Go and make a name for yourself Pete
