Well I did post a month ago about what would happen in transfer window and got knocked back by the so called " you're talking rubbish people" All I said has happened and we're heading for League one fast. ESI talk is cheap they had a great opportunity of keeping us safe in this league but they have chosen the cheap option.
Should have invested by spending but no. Bowyer must be looking over his shoulder I luv the guy but we are simply not good enough. MS tweet about the guys worked hard what an insult the only one who worked hard was the drinks man. Omg utter rubbish coming from his mouth. I had my doubts about the whole thing with them and I'm sorry to say looks like it's going to happen.
Im so sorry for so many die hard fans that are putting up with this garbage. Not looking forward to playing Accrington again.

Yeah, whenever you roll out a five year plan you always spend your full budget in the first few weeks in a mad panic.
Any more business advice for us?
cringe.
Let’s wait a while more before coming down hard.
But I am worried.
Apologies Lifers - Should have known!!
Stating the obvious, but this is a tough tough league to compete in with a low budget. There is undoubtedly a bigger gulf between League 1 and the Championship than there was the last time we came back up under Chris Powell and this will only get bigger with the likely ever increasing parachute money paid to those coming down from the Premier League.
Hopefully, in the summer recruitment can be targeted towards competing more strongly in the Championship rather than in League 1. But again, stating the obvious, if you don't have the calibre of defenders who can get you a clean sheet, or you don't have sufficient striking options to outscore rivals if you can't keep a clean sheet, you are going to struggle.
Top three are you having a laugh
How many games have they even played together as a pairing?
There's going to have to be some serious turnover in the summer.
It'd obviously be very nice, but i'm not sure they've said their plan is to reach the premier league in 2 years.
Bamford (13) is the only out and out striker Leeds utilise, Mitrovic (20) does the same job for Fulham as does Grabban (16) for Forest etc etc
it's just about possible that none of appropriate quality/fitness/experience were available at prices that made sense
the squad got strengthened but not in this critical area
pissing loads of money on "box office" or "marquee" signings guarantees nothing apart from bigger financial losses. Roberto Soldado, Eliaquim Mangala, Fernando Torres to name but 3 - Wolves paid £7M for Roger effing Johnson in 2011 FFS!
No amount of spending on signings will make Lyle Taylor defend the first ball from that Stoke free-kick properly, nor make André Green do what he had to do for the 2nd ball to even try to prevent the tap in. No amount of spending will make Adam Matthews defend properly for the 2nd or 3rd Stoke goals. Individual errors/laziness/stupidity/worse are just that - individual.
Congratulations on getting any responses at all to your childish hyperbole. I trust you'll hector loudly and rub our virtual noses in it if your worst case scenario comes to pass. I for one will be focusing on the positives, how seriously pony Wigan are and with games this month against Luton and Huddersfield Charlton's fate is very much in their own hands.
LT/MB have barely played together but that is something to look forward to.
I can't be arsed to research stats before I post a view so that I don't get called out for inaccuracies. FFS this is a forum of opinions not a court of law. Starting to regret joining.
- Opening a new thread, with some sort of confrontational rhetorical question as a title, every time you have something critical to say isn't appropriate. There are various threads on topics you cover to which you can air your opinion. This is a big part of many people's irritation.
- Acting all clairvoyant is also irritating.
- "You're talking rubbish people" - well, you are. ESI have owned the club for about two months and it's notoriously difficult to do adequate business in January.
- Why didn't you post this after Barnsley?
- "ESI talk is cheap" - well, again, they've barely owned the club for two months. What do you expect them to do? Spunk money all over the shop, shooting from the hip?
- "Have chosen the cheap option" you realise that the club loses £7m by going down, yes? So in what universe is that "cheap"? And you think they WANT us to get relegated? Are you mad? (That last one's rhetorical.)
- "Should have spent" well, maybe. Maybe not. But how can we tell only two games removed from the transfer window?
- "Bowyer must be looking over his shoulder" - at the relegation places, or for his job? I presume the former. And if so, well obviously we are. We all are.
- The guys did work hard. We made three signings on deadline day.
- Why are you assuming we're going down? That is unbelievably pessimistic.
There is so, so, so much wrong with what you post. I would consider introspection, some grammar lessons, and perhaps some soothing music/herbal tea/a massage to relax.
Huge huge gamble. Defense wasn't right from the start of this season but that was Roland's fault. Needed addressing.
When do I get to wet the bed?
I am still suspicious of ESI and will continue to be until we start seeing some positive actions.
