Mowbray at press conference

ajsccfc · Aug 28, 2015

Let's focus on the use of 'hope' and avoid 'WHERE ARE THE TWO PLAYERS YOU PROMISED MOWBRAY?' posts in the next few days.

Anybody noticed that it's always 'one or two'?

Figure of speech I think....

I expect the Telegraph to run their weekly story that we are 'closing in' on two targets before the Southend game.

Need them for the Burton game - less likely for Southend, I would have thought?

covcity4life · Aug 28, 2015

yeah we dont need them desperatley for southend

but burtona way with 2-3 missing will be tough.

but to be fair mowbray always said wait till prem league registration is complte. hes kept his word in my book

We'll_live_and_die · Aug 28, 2015

How can you say he has kept his word when he simply hasn't done anything. He'll have kept his word when we bring in some more quality signings before the window closes.

covcity4life · Aug 28, 2015

he just said he will

stop doubting the manager rich. go support wasps and drink tea out of a flask on your crappy new train you council lover

logjoe · Aug 28, 2015

Is everybody already turning on the manger

ccfcway · Aug 28, 2015

hmmmm, something isn't quite right.

I have just been onto the CT website and cant see a "5 things you didn't know about the numbers one or two"

Urg tea out of a flask

What???
He can't be accused of not doing anything surely.

Away in a manger, so home games not affected

If he's said we wait until the window closes so Prem teams have their squads before we act. He hasn't kept his word until the event has happened.

Before the season started I doubt if TM had any more idea how we would start than most of us on here.
He had just watched his team give several mediocre performances against lower league opposition without scoring goals,
and I expect he was as worried as us, maybe even more so.
But the addition of Armstrong, and to some extent, Murphy has transformed us, scoring 11 goals in 5 games and scoring in every game. So now he is probably thinking of holding onto his money as long as possible unless someone exceptional becomes available.
I am sure he has highered his sights since we started the season, and he probably recognises that the loss of 2 key players needs addressing with different players to what he thought he needed 1 month ago.
If we can get to January with cash in hand I think that will give us a good advantage over most teams.

We'll_live_and_die · Aug 28, 2015

I agree....

what happened to this super duper player we were signing???

Apparently he doesn't exist and was just a scenario created by TM which was taken out of hand

robbiethemole · Aug 28, 2015

thing is tho, several other teams are taking champ players on loan and some of them look half decent. I'm happy TM doesn't broadcast his signings til they're done, but a bit of activity would sooth the nerves no end.

We'll_live_and_die · Aug 28, 2015

If he brings in 0 Champ loans and gets two or three more quality loanees like Armstrong, I'll be happy.

No certainly not. I want him to stick with what he has done so far and that is to source good players and if they are not available wait until they are.

Panicing and signing anyone who happens to be available is false progress. There is still the loans window and then a window in January to add depth to the squad. 2 year job it hasn't changed.

simonregis · Aug 28, 2015

Rich, I guess that's your name and not your life's condition, although I hope it is. Why are you taking everything TM says as gospel fact? I really hope he isspinning a yarn because quite honestly if I was being interviewed by Alan and Andy, Clive and Geoff, Simon Gilbert or any other of that motley crew I would feel the necessity to lie my ass off.
I would have a field day and tell them we are signing this player or that, why? Because they frigging deserve it. They are as bad as CCC, ACL, SISU and Thomas the tank regime.

AND THE SOONER WE ALL JUST SEE THE FUNNY SIDE OF IT ALL THE BETTER. We deserve better than what we CCFC fans have to put up with, and I for one love TM because he doesn't take the whole damn thing seriously.

Placed in one, not born in one. I doubt a pregnant woman could be reported as climbing into an animal trough to give birth!

OH YEAH .... YOU DON'T HAVE TO USE CAPITALS TO MAKE A POINT (though I'm not sure you did make one anyway)

He may be being interviewed by those listed but he is speaking to the fans. I presume he isn't bullshitting the fans?

Being a moderator means that one can't voice ones own opinion?

Was u there?

Sky Blue Pete · Aug 28, 2015

Back on track I would be pleased with a new signing early next week

shmmeee · Aug 28, 2015

Wouldn't mind a right back on short term loan and of course a target man permanently. That would do me nicely. We can see how Murphy and Swanson get on before worrying about wingers.

AFCCOVENTRY · Aug 28, 2015

I see TM mentioned there are a number of triaists at the training ground that he's worked with in the past..

I guess one is the guy from Malta...
