Alexandre Mendy (transfer rumour)

Aye I saw that. Nick Barnes saying on total sport just now that he thinks RLB wants a striker but gets the impression he’s not convinced they’re going to get him one.

Statements like the above suggest he’s already paving the way to explain why …

The explanation translated for me reads “We’re looking for a decent forward with experience but won’t spend more than a couple of million”

No wonder it’s a long process.

Barnes regularly says utterly daft things though. I honestly think he purposely gets fed duff info by someone.

I'm not sure this is a good idea, he's already set a pretty low bar.

I disagree. He's gone for what he believes are stars of the future. And done really badly at that. What he hasn't tried is fairly competent now. He's gone for the next Ross Stewart. Everyone would be happy with the next stern John at this point.
 
I am sick of them they are taking us for fools and anyone who thinks they will get a decent striker in fits that description.
I remember a couple of weeks back saying Keiffer Moore would score more than any of our strikers and a deluded fool answered do you mean the strikers we have now or by the end of the season
I replied I am fairly certain they will be the same.

From Le Bris? Weird that he’s be talking about our striker search while managing Lorient

Aww everything is so funny isn't it, let's pretend I don't know who he's on about or reading previous posts.

Let's all be a happy we're starting yet another season without a striker that can score a goal and have spent the total sum of zero pounds in the transfer window.

We are being laughed at by those twats in the board room but everythings ok because Le Bris has just said it's difficult and no one else in the club has said that before. Except our last 3 managers and Speakman every chance he gets.
 
Or don't, but have a back up ready to go.

The same thing happened last summer with Rusyn dragging on. Why do we not have alternatives ready to go like other clubs seem to do...
 
He comes in late August. Fit to start by mid late September. First 8 games or so will be with either no striker or some kid on loan.

Mad that we went abroad to get Rusyn and waited ages.

This wasn’t based on any info he’d been given. What he said was purely his opinion based on RLB’s replies to questions asked.

It’s not a great leap of faith to think that RLB has seen previous head coaches pleading for a forward and being ignored to thinking I wonder if that’s going to happen to me too.
