Nope I remember all of that. I just think leaving is us obviously light in midfield without considering the clear likelihood of injury is up there. Remember the expectation was made to us that this would be a promotion push season. Obviously you think those decisions are worse, but I just disagree.Giving David Bell a four year contract?
Selling Lucas Jutkiewitz in relegation threatened season with no replacement being signed and the money not made available?
Selling Wilson to Bournemouth and accepting 4 useless loan players as part of the deal?
Just three Sisu transfer decisions off the top of my head that are far worse than anything going on now. If I thought about it there would be a lot more.
Some people have short, select memories
We didn’t have the chance on deadline day. By all accounts, there was activity on and leading up to deadline day but couldn’t get a deal over the line. It’s no good panicking, getting desperate and signing any dick, Tom or Harry to fill a need. That’s how you end up either paying over the odds or signing a dud.It's not Palmer leaving that's the problem, it's not replacing him when we had the chance.
There was out of contract players or loan players that could have been training with us for a couple of weeks by now and be ready to go.

Or in house?That's why you use the loan or contract to the end of season options.
Man, if only the club thought of that…That's why you use the loan or contract to the end of season options.
Except they haven't Still,so come on Kai,be the man,sink or swim time I'm afraid!Man, if only the club thought of that…

I know it was only a friendly and also only against a League One team but I was really impressed with his performance against Stevenage. He looked a cut above the Stevenage midfielders.Cometh the hour cometh the man,long awaited away debut for Kai, I hope and shining full debut awaits!
I hate to do it but it can be either a godsend or not for the lad let's hope he's the spark who can lift us out of the doldrums!I know it was only a friendly and also only against a League One team but I was really impressed with his performance against Stevenage.

Free agents - we tried and failed (Browne)Well why haven't they used either option then?
Especially the loan market.
There seems to be a train of thought that King won't use the loanmarket, and its a mistake on his behalf.
I think he's been seduced by the notion that every signing has to have a profitable resale value, ignoring the fact our current cash cow started out as a loan deal.
Dah dah dah, get off the fence for FS,<, excuses, give me progress or were pissing in the wind!Free agents - we tried and failed (Browne)
and at this stage all of the good ones have been signed up. James would be a logical signing imo, but it’s not a game changer as he’d still be 4/5th choice.
Loan market - what Prem team would loan a promising youngster to be 3rd or 4th choice for us? Sheaf is a guaranteed starter, Eccles is highly regarded and Torp isn’t going to be jettisoned either. If rumours are to be believed, we tried to go for Bobby Clark who ended up going to the Bundesliga on a permanent.
When you’re going for high calibre players, not only is completing deals for players difficult, they have to be the ‘right’ player.
I believe we had a loan player lined up & then his parent club changed their minds after picking up some injuries. Player recruitment is never as simple as it seems.Well why haven't they used either option then?

Or Eccles tbf!So apparently we've let Browne, a loanee and James slip through our fingers and are once more down to the bare bones?
Oh well, at least while Latis in CM he cant play right back, every cloud!
Season is shaping up brilliantly. If Eccles gets injured now we literally are in a crisis.
Do not fear. Lati is available
I guess the question would be if he's as good as people on here are making out why is he without a club?Why wouldn’t he be a starter? He played the majority of Bristol’s games last season and scored several goals.
He's also going to be nowhere near the level to come straight in and play 70+ minutes. He's not played since last season and no pre season.I guess the question would be if he's as good as people on here are making out why is he without a club?

Solutions lads not problem's!
"Could have, should have"It's not difficult.Sarcastic twat.
We could of and should of added more cover in midfield, everyone was crying out for it.
Imo Allen isnt a bad miss as he's not first choice anyway, but with Sheaf injured, how can we let Palmer go without bringing in a replacement? Whichever way you look at it, that's piss poor management, which is now coming home to roost.
We are now down to 2 fit midfielders, and 2 coming back (hopefully) from injury and Andrews who's untested!
Be still, my wildly thudding heart…Do not fear. Lati is available
Not really just a stopgap really I think?The consensus on here is that he's shite anyway isn't it
Prick"Could have, should have"It's not difficult.
think it's more the lack of depth than anything else. Means we will now be running Eccles and Torp into the ground and let's face it Sheaf is made of glassPeople writing off the season cause Jamie Allen is injured - Ffs half of you think he is shite and a League 1 player anyway, get a grip
