Transfer targets (38 Viewers)

[Matt smith]

Sarcasm aimed at those teetering on a full meltdown.

Because i think the midfield situation is pretty poor, many others agree.

happy with an addition in defence

Imagine wasting a day of leave to watch arguments on here and get excited by rumours like Lewis Baker incoming.

Courtesy of my career change I have another month off which I am trying to use for academic reading and writing. As it is I may change my project title to ‘Forum or Fiction? ITKs in the 21st Century’

Its called realism. If you think the midfield is OK i cant fathom it

Glass half empty I think you mean?

Then the plan would be to move Lati into midfield if needed.

Andy Turner saying he thinks we will get one and it will be a centre back rather than a midfielder

Andy Turner suggesting one coming in, and its a defender. Got to be Kitching right?

Disappointed at the lack of a midfielder

I think so, be interesting to find out what the actual fee is (bet its undisclosed)

Whatever it is its not his doing, so I'd welcome the extra defender to the squad, and give him 100% support, as I'm sure we all will.

If you think losing Hamer and going into the season with an unproven 19 year old, Sheaf, Eccles, Allen whos had a heart issue, O'Hare whos had 1 leg for nearly a year, Kelly who is a professional hospital patient and Kasey Palmer who has the stamina of a 64 year old man who drinks whisky every night and smokes 40 a day is going to be ok for us then i fucking give up

And Tats and Joel.

We certainly need an 8 but im of the view that the ”£35m window” is potentially a once in a decade moment and we should not waste the money if its not possible to spend it wisely this window. We can go again in January.

I also think we need another attacker but again we have to hope that Wright, Simms and Godden keep fit and find some consistency.

 

[TwistAndShoutCCFC1987]

Yes but are the lights on at UHC&W?

Fucking hope so

 

[Cov98]

Had a shit day at work, come home hoping to see some interesting transfer rumours and rumblings only to be met with this mess of a few pages. Got to love it

Going to be Kitching isn't it, maybe the player has handed in transfer request or has pushed things along..

 

[coop]

As it stands our squad is currently worse than it was when we kicked off against Leicester in our first game of the season.

This is very true.

 

[Pusb1]

So no new signing will be available for tomorrow anyway will they? Seems like the deadline to register them has passed.

Well at least we have Ayari in now,
and if we'd of kept Hamer and he'd of done his ACL on Saturday we'd be where we are now but without Ayari. (If you see what I mean)

Tbf, your never going to replace someone like Hamer in this league, you have to make the other players step up, and I'm confident we'll be fine once everyone is fit and settled.

 

[Saddlebrains]

It is Kitching

Just been told

 

[SHUNT31]

None of them apart from the 3 mentioned are top 6 championship material and il die on that hill

100% agree. Kelly shouldn’t even be playing in the championship.

 

[fatso]

As it stands our squad is currently worse than it was when we kicked off against Leicester in our first game of the season.

Ironically that's the only game we've lost

 

[Deity]

This is very true.

It was always likely to be. The chances of us replacing Hamer with a better player were slim.

 

[Balli001]

Its called realism. If you think the midfield is OK i cant fathom it

If there isnt any decent value for money out there then id wait.

 

[SHUNT31]

If we sign a midfielder I’ll be content.

im sorry you can’t justify not replacing hamer adequately we sold him 3 weeks ago

It’s fucking ridiculous that it’s not been sorted out. We lack creativity, and it was clear to see that last weekend.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Very pleased with Kitching and looks like someone who was an important target for Robins.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

It is Kitching

Just been told

But Barnsley’s chairman said…

 

[MacReady]

Maatsen to Burnley on loan with an obligation to buy for £31.5mill… sh1t the bed. The world is going crazy.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

It is Kitching

Just been told

Any idea of the fee?

If we can get this one over the line and loan a midfielder.

 

[fatso]

100% agree. Kelly shouldn’t even be playing in the championship.

I don't recall anyone saying that when we knocked Middlesborough out of the playoffs.

After that run of fixtures everyone was saying to give him a new contract.

Exactly!
Funny how some posters have very short memories.

 

[Perryccfc]

Grown men having actual meltdowns.

 

[Samo]

There are some ungrateful c***s on here.

 

[SHUNT31]

As it stands our squad is currently worse than it was when we kicked off against Leicester in our first game of the season.

Walked out of the KP thinking we’d be challenging for at least playoffs and maybe even come close to top two.

Our summer has been disastrous since then. Our squad is smaller than last year without having two of the leagues best players in it.

 

[Deity]

We are funny as fans aren’t we …. Had we today signed Yasin for £5m rather than loaned him from Brighton we would all have been excited. He might well prove to be a very shrewd loan signing.

Sheaf, Atari, O’hare …….

Sounds very creative but potentially exposes us when defending

Joel, / Eccles, Sheaf, O’hare / Ayari / Palmer ……

Maybe a better balance

 

[Sick Boy]

There are some ungrateful c***s on here.

Ungrateful to whom?

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

After that run of fixtures everyone was saying to give him a new contract.

It isn’t mutually exclusive to think that Kelly shone in that final run-in but also that he isn’t the dynamic/creative central midfielder we need.

 

[SHUNT31]

There are some ungrateful c***s on here.

Not being ungrateful. We were all sold the ‘Join The Journey’ drivel but are arguably worse having received £35m plus in additional revenue and transfer fees. Nothing against DK but there are questions to be asked.

Just because he is not SISU does not mean there shouldn’t be any scrutiny.

 

[Samo]

Ungrateful to whom?

We've spent more money than we could have dreamed of and all we get is bitching.

 

[larry_david]

Guys, Saddle has just told us we're signing Kitchin and you're all ignoring him moaning we're not signing anyone.
