Should we be worried?

Having someone on trial who was released by league 2 port vale after 4 goals in 34 games :eek:

Very concerning

I am by the whole thing

We have potentially a decent core with honeyman, gooch and the scottish lad in midfield

but worried by the lack of investment and some of the signings.

But you aren;t allowed to say that on this board for some reason
 
I thought we'd be making 1m+ signings for players at smaller bottom half Championship clubs willing to drop a division to play for a bigger club, a bit like when you see players dropping from the Premier League to the Championship or on players who absolutely shone in League 1 last year like Nolan at Shrewsbury or Morris at Scunthorpe. Some signings look OK but just seems a bit desperate and not what I was expecting at all with all the statements they were initially making.

Absolutely 100% my view

And I am surprised so few people agree with you, its really what I was expecting

They haven't done anything remotely like I expected them to
 
exhbit A of the typical moronic reply you get on here

like there's nothing between Harry Kane and this useless fucker :lol:



there should be some concerns like, to pretend everything is going great is just a lie
Yep indeed. They get time of course

But I’m slightly worried that there’s a lot of bluster (appeasing the fans through RR) but substance doesn’t match it. Yet. Obviously
 
He didn't say anything about the transfer budget. He said the budget. As in the amount it costs to keep the lights on.

Would be disappointed if we didn't bring a proven goalscorer and a solid CB. If freebies fit that profile so be it. Plenty of time until the start of the season though, pretty sure we'll see more movement once the likes of Khazri and Kone have fucked off.

why wait? they will clearly go

They are doing absolutely nothing different to what Short did last year, yet are getting praised for it

You really are a f***ing idiot mind. Why on earth would we do that when there is literally no need?
 
He's on trial. He probably won't be signed. If he is he will have impressed Ross sufficiently to be offered a contract. I think his record is shit but I'm happy to trust Ross until he's proved he can't be trusted!

Impress against a conference north team?

I take the podcasts with a pinch of salt, I dont blame them for doing it, but one of the owners owns a PR company

It just seems all very very small time, and I am really disappointed they have no great plan to get us up or real ambition

We seem to accept that we will be a league one club for a few years

Have you seen your posts tonight? They are f***ing insane :lol:

One was fair enough. But I think they’re trying too hard at times.

Some stuff needs to stay private

Do you understand the budget rules? Has this not already been explained, we have to get the big earners off the books before we can bring in new players are break the EFL budget rules. That is not a lack of funds, its a temporary problem caused by having numerous players on the books on £40k odd a week.
 
maybe they are trying to make us a self sufficient, healthy business, before lashing millions of their personal money around.

Or maybe they are trying to spend absolutely none of their own money.

So no f***ing different to Short then

Hope you were defending him as strongly

Somehow I doubt it :lol:

Disagree, look what has happened on here tonight because we have played a trialist ffs......Allowed to speculate and our fan base pisses its collective pants at every opportunity.

I was told that Backburn bought a bloke called Bradley Dack who won player of the year in league 1 and he cost 300k...

Why can’t we get four or
Five like that and really bed the team
Out
 
It’s a joke. Stewart Donald has fed the fans a load of shite about our so called transfer budget. Said it was a budget most championship clubs would be jealous of.

So far we have signed nothing but freebies. Signing Players who have been released by their clubs for not being good enough at league 1 level. Now we are trialling a lad who was released by a league 2 team for not being good enough.

It’s clear now we have no transfer budget and not much money for wages either.

It’s staggering how far we have fallen in such a short space of time. Short may have payed the debt off but he’s sold us down the river giving the club to these blokes.

Keep lapping up all the shite Stewart is putting out on podcasts though.
This^^^^^

However the lads at RR will keep trotting out the PR positivity and the locals will keep lapping it up!
