Going to Barcelona tomorrow morning until next Thursday. Not sure whether to stay offline and get the disappointment all in one go when I'm back. Or to get a small amount of disappointment each day....

I'd be happy to be wrong, but why do we think Roland will allow us to sign anyone? The last two seasons we have gone into it short, and this year will be exactly the same.
Div 1 will be easy; the youngsters will step up and cope; there is no more money; we can use the loan system for goalies; once the Prem clubs announce their 25 player squads we can cream off the best for the season; blah blah blah!
Until we get the vermin out of our club, we will never be competitive!
worrying that Foley has not even signed as you would of thought that would of been a easy deal to reach for both parties if there was a wiliness to get it done!

That's maybe less important since he's here already. The problem is that no one who arrives after tomorrow will have played a single pre-season game, albeit they might do something behind closed doors next week.
Or Slade gave them a list of players a few weeks back--- he gave them a big nudge in the press last week but--- Katy gave him a list of RDs Euro Trash which are very very cheap--- he rejected it--- so now dear Katy is trying to get Slades players in, but o dear o dear seems to be taking a tad to much time and of course RDs Ruro Trash are still available .
They have learnt from their mistakes --- we improve every time a new manager comes in--- we will be competitive

Either that Katie is being stubborn and wont budge from her list of European names and is currently a game of who'll blink first!!
Her or Russell (in the sense that either will just go... Oh sign them then, rather than Slade resigning)
What is going on? Is it a reluctance to pay summer wages or a reluctance to sign players full stop? Or is it simply the complexities of transfer deals holding everything up?

Bring suncream. It's roasting here and set to continue.
Looks like any signings we do make somebody is dragged kicking and screaming to the table. If there was a cohesive plan, this will all have been done in a measured and controlled manner ages ago, and the manager would not be talking about being 'miles away ' with two weeks to go. As each day, indeed as each hour ticks by, it looks to me an unsustainable situation already. I still don't think Russell Slade should resign, however even if it is out of his rather affable character, I really do believe he should tell the world and his wife how he is being left unsupported and rudderless, and he should shout it loudest before the first kick off. If the overall gamble is that positive results forgive everything, then they had better happen for the sake of everybody.

Worst.
Thead.
Ever.
Another day, still no signings, he's still here.
Fuck.

RD won't release the money to fund the recruitment
The players won't sign due to the current reputation of the club.
what a sad state of affairs
