Yes, we needed a clear out, and by and large we've done well in that respect, BUT we also needed better to come in as replacements. Better players who are fit and ready to drive us up the league, that clearly hasn't happened.Covered End said:Many fans thought they can all go apart from Leaburn, Dobson, AMB and maybe a couple of others.
Now we're getting our wish come true about a root & branch overhaul the usual moaners are out in force.
I'll wait for the window to close before passing judgement.2 -

OConnell injured .. not started a game because he not fully fit ?golfaddick said:

I can categorically say that we've been lied to. Contracted players leaving & being replaced by injured & loanees.
Wait for meltdown when Dobson is sold at 11pm.1 -
I'm fine with the clear out. A lot of deadwood at the club and might as well get rid now for a fresh start in the summer (hopefully under new owners). I thought we would be in trouble of relegation a few months ago, but not now. I expect us to finish in 11th and push on in the summer0

I’m happy with the outgoings (apart from O’Connell if he goes) but not convinced by any of the incomings, especially Hector.Covered End said:Many fans thought they can all go apart from Leaburn, Dobson, AMB and maybe a couple of others.

IF O'Connell goes to Wrexham then it would be in Cafc interest to say how much as he only signed in the Summer. Players doing a 'Mullins' and dropping two divisions to earn more money shows what happens when Hollywood comes to town.
We needed George Clooney ER, but instead we got Thomas Sandgaard who specialises in A+E - Accidents and emergency loans.

Don’t think it shows the level we are working at, I think it shows the level Wrexham are working at due to have what seems to be good owners, with good intentions, who are happy to spend a bit.SELR_addicks said:Best centre back by some distance leaving and people still think we're in for a good season next year.
We have no money. For the likes of Wrexham to be able to sign our better players shows the level we're working at.5 -
Strengthened where?Gravesend_Addick said:I actually think we've done good business this month. Managed to get rid of some of the underachieving, high earning dross & strengthened in other areas. The balance of the squad looks much better to me than it did at the start of the month.
I'm clearly in the minority though!!
Everyone leaves in 6 months and we are left with Dobson, Fraser and kids surrounding them.5 -
Possibly not... We'll have to wait and see... O'Connell leaving doesnt fill me with confidencegolfaddick said:
Yes, but it wont happen in the summer either.ForeverAddickted said:
Apart from O'Connell leaving today isn't this what the majority of fans have wanted for months?golfaddick said:

Said players would come in and then they would address if players who were surplus to requirements could leave.
But more are leaving than arriving & we are bringing in loans & letting under contract players leave permanently.
IF EOC or Lavelle leave then we are weaker. Maybe not now but definitely in the summer. Yet another "rebuild" and the recent ones havent gone well. 6 loanees go back & short term deals like Bonne & Hector leave.
Would need 10-12 new players in the summer. Like we did last summer. And remind me how that went & where we are in the League currently.
Yes, call me negative but I'm not wrong.
Deadwood players, who have proven time and time again they cant hack it for us, looking at the table
The summer was always going to be another rebuild
Still want it to happen in the summer rather than January, this month is the time of year where players no one wants become available0 -

At least someone else on here agrees with me.3 - Sponsored links:

Currently 5 in 4 out. It's looking like maybe Hector in and EOC out and Edwards in Kirk out but only one of those has actually happened. That's still more in than out, and that doesn't even take into account the fact that the issue isn't numbers, it's balance. We had 3 first team goalkeepers! Do you want us to replace MacGillivray or we've had a bad window? We aren't weaker if Lavelle goes, we currenly have 6 first team centre backs, which for a team playing with 4 at the back is insane.golfaddick said:

All transfers and loans are processed through TMS (Transfer Matching System) and it relies on identical information being entered at both ends for the deal to be rubber stamped and signed off. Not usually a big deal for domestic transfers (DTMS) but very important with players from a different football association (ITMS) where the names can be mixed around and this can have visa implications.
The EFL will verify all records before approving - hence the term "EFL Approval"1 -
Either a 2bob owner who has no fucking clue what they are doing is very close, or Sandgaard is asset stripping to fund this season. Selling EoC would be ridiculous.1

Because Inniss and Ness have done very well together over the past monthsam3110 said:
Because Inniss wasn't fucking up. That all changed at the weekend so hopefully he stays and plays alongside Ness on Saturdaykillerandflash said:Holden hasn't started EOC since his return from injury, so maybe he doesn't rate him as much as the fans do?2 -
Its easier to bring players in when summer arrives as contracts are finished. My concern is at what level we pitch at, last year we raided the second division and it sat us just outside the bottom four, not really a surprise. We have to wait an see Golfie, nobody is sure about the takeover or their intentions if it happens, we just have to wait and see.golfaddick said:

Absolute bloody hand-wringing melts the majority on here nowadays, you'd think we just announced we're selling Leaburn to Hackney Marshes for a fiver and a frisbee15

Best centre back until Ness got the shirt - and his competition was Lavelle and Inniss who he is marginally quicker than - not saying Hector is a good signing but think we're exaggerating how good O'Connell actually is.SELR_addicks said:Best centre back by some distance leaving and people still think we're in for a good season next year.

Perhaps they are taking both O Connell and Lavelle?ValleyGary said:Wrexham must be offering silly money
Both their CB got injured the weekend so they’re desperate as well

Remember him @ Peterborough, is a very good playmaker type Midfielder if I remember rightly - However had a few injury issues whilst at Ipswich if my memory serves me correctly... Might be able to get the player of old out of him, may well get someone who is a shadow of their former selvessupaclive said:Gwion Edwards

Massive clearout and a new team signed in the summer.
And look where that got us.

Signing Michael Hector till the end of the season and selling O’Connell (who’s already signed up till 2025) is very bad business.22

The balance looks better but Penney looked less than average last weekend, Hector hasn’t played a competitive game all season, Edwards has played 24 minutes all season. Expect the medical department to be even busier than they are. Better balanced squad but not sure the quality has improved much.Gravesend_Addick said:I actually think we've done good business this month.

In the summer we will have about six contracted senior players and relying again on injured freebies and loans. Nothing will change. We are going to be a long time in League One.1 -
How do you know? It certainly won't happen if Thomas and Hamish are still in charge but I don't think that is likely.golfaddick said:

Is only having a few contacted players left in the summer a bad thing??
How many of the squad that started the month were worth keeping?5 -
EOC to Wrexham... WTF1

Looks like a fire sale. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see Dobson or Leaburn sold if any half decent offer comes in4

I've seen o Connell described on here as league 2 and a cheap option. If I wasn't a Charlton fan reading these posts, I would have thought we were selling Franco baresiEast Kent Addick said:

I dont quite understand the need for a Ball playing defender in VNL quite frankly, Lavelle would be far better for the level imo.1
