    there is no way we would get 2 or 3 quality players, at the top of their game for 6/8 million at the crazy end of a transfer window. we could get 2 or 3 decent kids who can improve or 2 or 3 'oul lads whos careers are on the slide.

    Lennon is doing great business, wilson for free, commons for 300k, ledley for free.

    Hooper cost 2.5million from scunthorpe.

    if you want an "experienced" striker who is good in the air and can get 20+ goals....thats 10million

    a decent cb on top of his game.....thats 10million...

    (Loovens cost 2 million ,hooiveld around 1.5)


    now the next problem is these 10million pound players want to be in the EPL not the SPL and so want to be paid zillions

    Quote from Alan Thompson's interview with Chick Young there: "We'll need to see what happens in the next couple of days. We might be in the market, we might not be."

    If you ask me, 'maybes' are not acceptable at the moment. A categorical 'yes Chick' was the only answer that should have been given.

    Especially given Murphy left us and we remain with 3 strikers (one of them is Samaras....)

    They obviously are in the market or the next couple of days would be irrelevant.

    Obviously in an ideal world we would bring in a target man up front, another quality center back and possibly a left back. Reality is that likely is not going to happen at such a late stage. But given the shaky confidence of the team at the moment I think it is crucial we at least get in 1 real quality signing to give everyone a lift and improve the team before things resume after the international games next week.

    If we sign only the one player, I expect to lose the League again and it's the board's fault because we all know what's needed and I'd assume Lennon will be the same.

    I wouldn't read too much into that at all, the club won't be wanting to give anything away, they never do.

    there really should be no maybe's, if's nor but's. We NEED mroe plaeyrs and it's * pathetic that we have been pussyfootin around in the market....Again.
    2 pre-contracts and 900k spent on a young player is not acceptable considering we always needed another striker.
    The time to get teh finger out was 3 weeks ago, now it's get a grip and stop arseing aobut.

    According to this, Bangura due in today, thanks to Henke! If the King of Kings recommends the lad, that'll do nicely!

    Re Ilunga, think this is lazy journalism oncve again, as we were linked with the lad a few years ago under WGS, but we'll see - reports of late have suggested he's a bombscare these days...
