Makes me laugh folk criticising the Grigg signing, ohh I didn't want him in the first place etc. Bollocks. Practically everyone was ripping their skin back when we signed an absolute proven league one striker.
Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Aye, the vast majority certainly wanted him, I know I definitely wanted him! We'd lost a lad who scored for fun in this league, Grigg had a great goal return at this level, I was happy we got him.

Certainly I disagree when some are calling him a panic buy. A panic buy is when you need a player in and, with the window nearly shutting, you just buy any fucker who is available, often without scouting etc because you don't have time, maybe another move has fallen through so you panic and get someone in. That's not what happened with Grigg, at all. He was our number one target throughout. Now, I'd agree if you said we overspent. We were probably held to ransom a bit with the window shutting but that doesn't affect whether he was the right player to bring in. They obviously thought he was since they'd targeted him all window, so you can't really call it a panic buy
 
Ive had a post deleted... for the first time ever..... what did I say? Did I say something that may be seen as ITK or did I post something offensive?

another 2 weeks? I was depressed this morning at the thought of another week. Another 2 weeks is taking the piss. Clearly some major issues here. Reiver's info has completely dried up as well so that's another reason to be sick as fuck.

I don't think Dell is going to be all that involved tbh, why would he want to be in the background in such a big deal?

He shouldn't be needed if there's 3 billionaires with their names on the books anyway mind. I suppose he could get more involved later if things are going well but I just think it's more about the other 2/3 investors but the media are focusing on Dell more.

nick barnes and another poster a few pages back.

I feel like I did when Zoltan Gera equalised for west brom in 2005. Just when you think the tide is turning and summit good is going to happen you get a massive kick in the balls.

Your last sentence is spot on - just wonder what the hold up is as from previous posts, a deal was imminent last week ?
