    Why have we left everything till the last minute? What good can come from that (well I guess the answer to that will be revealed come 11pm).
    You mean apart from the 8 players we signed before today? 
    8 players aren't enough, evident by the first 6 games, if you've been watching. 
    Signing players who aren't good enough is a different matter but we haven't left EVERYTHING to the last minute, have we. 
    We've left our recruitment to be finished at the last minute, not sure why you have to argue every single thing. We are short on players and have got just hours left, not up for opinion or debate, it's fact. 
    I never said we weren't short, I don't think anyone has said we are.  We also haven't left everything until the last minute, which is what I said, before you jumped in, again. 
    Did I say we've left everything until the last minute? Making stuff up, again. 
    No, I wish you would actually read. 

    Someone said why have we left everything to the last minute. I replied apart from the 8 players we have already signed.  You said 8 isn't enough.  I said I didn't say it was but that's not leaving everything to the last minute.

    But you can't resist jumping in with your size 11s to make the same point over and over that no one is arguing with.  Then finding some comment that's not really related to your gripe to re enforce it again.

    What’s interesting is that Kerr was apparently on his way to sign for us, without any real discussion on here. If that’s true it shows that they can get done under the radar. 
    I thought he'd be a good signing this summer but with St Johnstone in Europe didn't think they'd sell any of their best players. If we were in the Championship it would be worth a large bid for Ali McCann IMO.

    The midfield is sorted, Arter,  Lee and Dobson if its 433 with Morgan,Watson and Clare as backup. But we still need another defender and a striker.
  • How many loan slots have we got left?

    We’ll end up with an average squad age older than last season at this rate.

    We can only field two more in a matchday squad on top of Famewo, Arter and Lee but technically could sign more.

    We could use more, if we can't get a deal over the line, and convert it to a perm later.  We haven't got a proper game for 10 days now.

    The original comment “ Why have we left everything till the last minute? ” 
    Wasn't my question. I'm not going to get into nit picking with you all anyway, it's childish. 
    Because a post of "tick tock" with nothing to add is the absolute height of maturity, oh yes.
    Mature comment. 
    Not me calling other people childish so neener neener to you Mr Poopypants

    There’s bottom of the barrel, and then there’s David Nugent

    Have we started a walking football team? Him and Watson would be great in that side.

    Otherwise no.

    Dobson should comfortably be 6th choice if august is anything to go by.

    I do think we should be looking at another good quality striker. If Stockley is injured or is out of form then we will struggle as a team. We need players pushing for places, not just ‘back up’. Therefore a big fat No for me on Nugent.

    David Nugent!? 36 and only scored 2 at Tranmere in League 2 last season. 
    That can’t be true. 
  • A few years ago yes please, not now though. Would be very underwhelmed with this.

    Nugent was a very effective player and scored a few in his prime.

    His prime might now be somewhat behind him now.

    36 now.

    No, that's Emily Nugent.

    We don't need to sign free agents today anyway. We can get those at any time.

    Jesus that is scraping the barrel! Surely Jephcott would be a better option, Nugent just shouts cheap desperation.

    Agreed. I'd probably be looking at Gilbey, Arter and Lee as the starting three but you need strength regardless which we now have.

    Yeah no chance, I’d need CBT if we end up signing a player released by Tranmere.
