    I don't remember TS ever saying that we would have a squad capable of storming the Division assembled by 7th July. I do recall a previous CEO promising us a marquee signing that manifested itself 24 hours or so before the window closed and that was Omar Bogle - who delivered 2 goals in 17 appearances (funnily enough his record for Doncaster is identical).

    So can we please judge this squad based on the signings to date such as Stockley (a massive improvement on Bogle) and those that are concluded between now and the beginning of the season. I reckon that we probably make something like 5 more permanent signings and probably 3 loan deals especially as I can see Adkins giving more opportunities to the likes of Demspsey, Vennings etc etc in the same way that he has done with youngsters at other clubs.

    I'm confident that we will secure those signings.
    We are just 4 weeks from the start of the season. Is it not best to have a team.that are not strangers at that point. True the window is open after that but usually all that is left is not so clever and loans are risky because they may not fit, be called back or want to move on for some reason.
    You are right the season starts in 4 weeks but the way people are behaving you would think it is in 4 days time.

    There seems to me to be 'very little to absolutely no patience' being shown by many people on this thread!
    Just because the club aren't saying anything or rolling out new signings every other day, doesn't mean they are doing nothing!!
    This, as I've said before, is a new regime, we are owned by a very successful businessman, in his own right, and hence he will be doing things his way.
    Do people honestly think the club don't know we need quite a few good quality players?
    FFS everyone, especially you @golfaddick just chill out and see what happens!
    Continually moaning and complaining isn't going to change how the club are working, they are doing things their way.
    If at the start of the season we are short of quality players then complain away, but for now just sit back, watch tonight's game, hope England win and chill out. 
    Getting wound up with each other over something none of us control is completely fucking pointless!!!

    Sorry I got wound up.

    If it helps, some of the replies are making me laugh and I’m feeling much better now.

    So thank you (nearly) everyone 😁

    It seems like Wigan do not want to sign Soloman Otabor so it will be interesting to see what happens.

    Pay as you play?
  • I have virtually zero expectation every transfer window - ensures I'm not disappointed. I'm sure we'll field a vaguely competitive team for our opening fixture - just be happy if I get to watch them.

    Latest from Cawley nothing sounds close or as people have said he poss isnt being updated much
    His last comment sums it up, its as if people think they are more clued up than those running the club.
    I think that's an important point.

    It's frustrating for us that there hasn't been more movement but it'll be even more frustrating for the recruitment team, TS and Adkins as not only do they have to actually work on these deals but if they don't get it right it makes their job for the coming season harder too.

    People would do well to remember that they're as desperate for success as we are.
    It is a good point and Cawley has said deals are being worked on. I do understand Golfie's point too. He isn't attacking Thomas, but waiting to see what happens to the recruitment before he is happy with it and he feels we should be further down the track than we are given what we were told. 

    My view is, I am expecting good recruitment and I appreciate it might be difficult and delayed due to a variety of reasons, but I will judge it when I see it in its totality.
    I am with you Muttley. I DO appreciate getting recruitment right and securing the right players in a competitive market is not easy. As supporters we owe a lot to TS and it's a real shame for him that the economic impacts of COVID have reduced club turnover when he wants to invest in the playing side of the club. So I will be patient and hope they can assemble a strong enough squad to have a good stab at promotion this season.

    In saying that I don't see why a lot of people are jumping on the bandwagon to give Golfie such a hard time. He simply adopts the policy of saying "Show me" and that actions speak louder than words. I don't think that makes him the devil incarnate does it? 
    That’s fine & dandy until he goes & says things like ‘I don’t see much difference between TS & Douchbag’.
    Then I just want to rip his head off & shit down his neck!

    Sorry, but I’m a tad wound up today & he ain’t helping 😫😫😫😫
    Mods, can you please ask this poster to amend or delete this post.

    It is very abusive & not in the spirit of this board.

    Someone on here the other day mentioned the word "mental" and the thread went into overdrive calling him out on it.

    I dont think wanting to rip my head off & shit down my neck is very pleasant.

    I think I will take myself off here & wont add to this thread until posters can be civil to one another.



    Oh please, what's the complaint here, you want to spout off without being called out?
    To be fair to Golfie that was out of order, if it had been the other way round there would have been a meltdown.

    You he is a miserable git but that was a bit over the top wasn't it? 
    Feck me, it’s an expression.
    And if someone said it to me I’d take it as exactly that.

    Ffs, I know I’ve let him wind me up when I shouldn’t but seriously did people think I actually meant it? I’m a 51yr old woman 😂😂😂😂😂
    They’re the most dangerous kind 😉

    What a nasty toxic place this is rapidly becoming.

    Agree with the thought police or receive snippy abuse from weirdos. 

    Time for a break I think. 
    Now look what you've all done, upset Golfie & grumpy.

    Golfie wants to clean your teeth by shoving a toothbrush up your arse.

    Did anything happen with the Shane Ferguson rumour? I heard last month that this was one we were closely looking at. Sorry to put a rumour on the comedy thread.

    Just had Sean Dyche in the cab. Asked him to loan us some talent since he picked up an absolute bargain with Nick Pope 
    Should have told him to sell Pope. That is what we need!

    It’s a good job @Dazzler21 is around Bartram Towers cleaning the Karzy with his tongue, he’d be issuing written warnings all over the place.
