Because it's not really commercially viable at this point. The club is already running at a loss, I don't really see why King would want to invest in something that is guaranteed to swallow further capital that, personally, would be far better spent being invested into the club's...

Please just read my posts. I've not actually said anywhere it's not problem area. What I'm taking issue with is posters making out that it's our only issue.

Agreed every time he receives the ball you'd think it was hot coal.

It was a pretty unfortunate goal to concede really. Binks' clearance was poor but given the speed the ball came in there wasn't much else he could do reaction-wise. Just annoying the header fell perfectly into the feet of Sainz who was always going to score from there.

Don't disagree at all. In the role he's being asked to play Allen looks like a year 7 playing against year 11s. He looks completely out of his depth and doesn't have Sheaf or Hamer around him to do the hard work. Agreed, Rudoni should probably be deployed as an 8.

He should've scored the first two, or at the very least both should've tested the keeper. The chance from Torp's cross was difficult granted but he was so slow to the ball and hit it straight at their GK rather than trying to guide it past him. A striker of his supposed level should've done better.

Again wouldn't call it an error, it's more highly unfortunate. Clearly the club thought they'd got Stamenic over the line and it didn't happen and by that point Browne would've been speaking to other parties. I do agree someone of his mould is needed right now though.

Just as a caveat to the above. I'd wager the vast majority of these 'successful' passes will be short / simple passes while probably not under much pressure, if any at all - i.e. to Binks or MVE or back to Dovin or forward to a midfielder if they came short. As such I wouldn't take much from...

No thank you we don't want Latibeaudiere on the ball more than necessary. It's frightening enough when he receives the ball as it is let alone in a position where he has to do something meaningful with it.

Apart from the chances he either should've scored or done better with - when he was through one-on-one and used the wrong foot, the header from Bidwell's cross and his shot at the near post following Torp's deflected cross? Maybe go to games before spouting further drivel.

I've not said anything to the contrary. It's clear the midfield is an issue as we're getting cut through like a hot knife through butter. But the suggestion that it's the root to all our evils is a total nonsense. As mentioned, most players have been well below the level and that's putting it...

I'm sorry but this is utter garbage and myth peddling at its finest. Other than vs Oxford the forwards have been as bad if not worse than the midfield.

It is but categorically I refuse to believe it's the core of our issues. Most players on the pitch have been dreadful thus far and that won't just be solved by Sheaf coming straight back into the side. Collectively everyone needs to take it up a notch and the coaching staff desperately need to...

In three windows we've pretty much revamped our entire squad. The level of work that would've taken to get to where we are now really shouldn't be understated. Certain things still need to click and the performances haven't been good enough but we're getting close to becoming a very well...

Well it'll just invoke the exact same response - that's football. It might happen, it might not. I really don't understand why posters are asking such leading questions when in reality no one knows how Sheaf will hold up until January or the end of the season for that matter.

It's not really an error, it's just football. The club tried repeatedly to bring in a midfielder and it didn't materialise - unfortunately as mentioned transfer windows very rarely ever pan out the way you want them to. Yes, we're light in midfield but Sheaf is back soon so hopefully he can...

If it was publicly revealed every time the club had missed out on a transfer target during any given window you'd quickly realise how ridiculous that statement is.

I mean you can't really say anything more than: 'that's the transfer window'. They rarely pan out the way you want them to. Disappointing of course that no one came in, especially given it sounded like we were close but when multiple parties/stakeholders are involved in a deal it really...

Think it was poor timing rather than poor business. Palmer was a pretty sizeable expense comparative to his output on the field. I'd imagine he was easily one of the higher earners at the club. So when you take that into account, as well as his age, and the fact he only had one year left...

Not really all that surprising there isn't much in terms of funds left, if anything. Wage budget will certainly be at and more likely above our turnover and the Gyokeres / Hamer money will have been all but spent. Any future incomings will need to be funded through player sales or sell-on...
