If we dont get the players in we need by end of the window. It will be on ESI head if we get relagated. Southall if you want us to stay up you have to pay that little bit extra that clubs and players want. Scrap your model for this window. Implement it in the summer once were safe. We are desperate and there's no room for being tight over a players wanting 1k more a week. Get you're cheque book out or we get relegated. Period. If we get relegated because of lack of investment in this window ESI are just dumb business men.

And what if we break FFP rules because we stay up for breaking what we're allowed to pay and so end up with a fine / points deduction!!
Im not saying go out and spend 10m on one player. We pulled out of the Gnanduillet deal over an extra few thousand pounds. We needed him today. And paying a player an extra 1k a week aint going to break our FFP. But that fine if Southall dont want to pay that little bit extra to get deals over the line. We will be signing our 2nd 3rd chioce targets or no one and we will be getting relegated which will cost ESI more.
I think fans are getting confused with 'lack of activity' and 'lack of signings'. As Gallen mentioned in the ESI press conference its a case of looking at 10 to get in 3.
The most important thing is to get in the right kind of player who not only has the desired quality, but also has the character to fit in with the ethos of the side. These things take time, especially in January where unless you are willing to pay over the odds it's difficult to get anyone in who matches that criteria.
Sometimes I wonder if people's views on transfers have been somewhat effected by video games, social media and even the transfer deadline day where it boils down the complex process to as simply concept for viewers to be involved in.
IMO we need a left back, a centre back, a centre mid and a striker before the window closes, and that’s with no more outgoings. We are seriously struggling and we can’t rely on injured players coming back anymore
Agreed
Probably two midfielders now after Gallagher's departure.
Bowyer wouldn’t be coming out and saying we need bodies if he wasn’t unhappy surely? Means other clubs will just up their prices even more as will agents.
Firmly a believer that he’s a little disappointed with ESI at the moment after those comments.
Also better spending money now rather than summer, on the right signings obvs, as beds them in and gets them ready for next season.
You end up buying tat in January!!
Its staggering the amount of rubbish we've signed this month compared to actually quality players
Maddison isn’t “tat”
we need a bit of grit, guile and flair. He brings that.
we also need a dominant leader to play at centre back to see us through this season
No your right Maddison isnt tat - As per my list of players who werent tat in previous seasons I should have worded my original better by saying that most turned out to be duds
The point is tho we had poor managers and owners. Now we have a manager and recruiter who everyone thinkgs the sun shines out of their .... and new owners who we all think have money and better intentions than roland. We arent destined to who have a bad january forever.... i hope

What are you on about? Almost every line you’ve written is nonsense.
It’s not on ESI head if we get relegated, as they weren’t at fault for having to build a budget squad capable of competing in a full championship season.
Could it have been someone like Liam Bridcutt at Forest? ie not a like for like replacement but a player who could have been useful but not essential like Taylor is.

We need Bowyer fully engaged and some belief.

Of course some have been loan signings
2018 - Mavididi | Zyro | Kaikaki
2017 - Forster-Caskey | Page | Dasilva | Byrne | Mavididi
2016 - Johnson | Teixeira | Williams | Poyet
2015 - Etheridge | Dmitrovic | Watt | Lepoint | Veljkovic
2014 - Nego | Ghoochannejhad | Parzyszek | Thuram | Koc
2013 - Feely
2012 - Clarke | Cort | Haynes
Stephens, Yann, Holmes, Lookman, Grant all come to mind
Years of therapy to overcome and forget about some of those names and I've brought it all back

Lots of work to do

Firstly, Doyle can’t play for another club. Secondly, Taylor ain’t going to League Two 😂
