Ain't happening dudes.
It's difficult getting deals over the line and even harder because of the bank holiday weekend. The twats have only had 10 weeks to get a squad together, but it's difficult due to the fact that they're a massive bunch of thick fuckwits. We couldn't get our championship targets over the line because we're plotless and near the bottom of the 3rd division. No decent player is going to sign while the negotiator wears Salmon Chinos. It's like groundhog Day with these twats3 -
No we couldn't because that'll take us over the mythical FFP threshold, we'll get an out of contract Swindon rejectPlaaayer said:We could have May, Leaburn, Colback, Ladapo, Lyle Taylor, Darren Bent, Harry Kane and Haaland as our striking options and score 7 a game, but our defence would still concede 80 -
If you have someone who can actually hold the ball up it would made a huge difference to the whole side. It relieves pressure, brings our midfield up and into the game and shifts the whole team up the pitchPlaaayer said:We could have May, Leaburn, Colback, Ladapo, Lyle Taylor, Darren Bent, Harry Kane and Haaland as our striking options and score 7 a game, but our defence would still concede 8
If they don’t sign some quality players this week we’re in for more pain6 -
Either all of our defenders are crap and need replacing or the management team can't get them organised and needs replacing.
I think I know which option the owners will take, and after 5 straight defeats and defensive chaos it may be the right one.1 -
Good luck getting an answer to that, they're hardly likely to say, 'oh yea, we fucked that up again', also ask him why Zorro is in goal and why haven't we bought a forward to replace the crocked one from months ago. Ask him if he's going to sort his shit out, and wtf does Andy Scott do, because at the moment he's not clearing out any of the dead wood and he's not signing anyone either, he's as useful as a chocolate teapotSouthWest_Addicks said:Would like to ask Holden about the decision to sign off on letting Egbo go without a replacement. In the grand scheme it’s not a big deal, but surely we should have left ourselves without a back-up right full-back for almost two weeks.5 -
The good goal conceded at the end of the Oxford game sits solely with Holden. Once again Assimwe left as the only man back when we weren’t even chasing the game. His defensive organisation is shocking and we are seeing the direct results of that.He has to go, he’s had a full preseason and no injuries to his defence. And has one clean sheet in 6 games15

I'm sure a busy fee days ahead. The outcome is anyones guess, but I have low expectations now.0

Yeah but if your defenders are not good enough it doesn’t matter how much organisation you try to put into them , as I mentioned on the Aberdeen match thread the other week most of the squad that is here was here last year and it wasn’t good enough so why did anybody think it would change.Sambcafc said:The good goal conceded at the end of the Oxford game sits solely with Holden.

What now for the 'Right type of player' ??
You would think a large element of whatever that means is being 'right' for the current managers plans?
But if he's gone in the next two weeks, his input would be pretty pointless.

Tedic fits the bill of the type of loanee that will be available at this point of the window. Some experience at this level but not many starts and not been a consistent scorer anywhere he's been on loan. Can't find many highlights even.0
-
I had been told that this was the signing that was due to happen on Friday, but fell through due to agents and legal aspects. Not sure if it will be resurrected. The person I spoke to who is further down the food chain than the ITK contacts knew nothing of the Cosgrove rumours and just laughed at the mention of Clarke Harris.MarcusH26 said:Tedic fits the bill of the type of loanee that will be available at this point of the window.

https://barnsleyfc.org.uk/threads/powder-puff.324479/#post-3170959Opinions on Tedic from Barnsley fans, most didn’t rate him.
He only started 4 league games for Barnsley and also spent 4 months out with an ankle injury. Despite that he started for them at Wembley.He’s 23 so would be considered experienced in our squad. He spent the previous season on loan in the Dutch top tier where he scored 2 in 38 league appearances (21 were starts).

Doesn’t sound like a top target we’ve been patiently waiting for. At his age less likely to make a big improvement too.7 -
I assumed that they signed him in January looking at the amount of game he played. I forgot that all our targets must have spent most of last season injuredScoham said:

Cullen and Biliek had both had less than brilliant loans previous to joining us.
Doesn't mean Tedic will be as good as them or any good at all but some players click at certain clubs17 -
We needed to replace Leaburn before the start of the season,Tedic sounds like the sort of player we could have brought in a month ago. Why didn't we bring him in earlier?
I guess by the end of the week we will be told we can still sign free agents.1 -
Agree, Dobson is another who was slated by Sunderland fans. I think we can all agree he's been a success. In truth we are looking for a striker to compete with and be back up to Leaburn. If it's Tedic, that's fine.Henry Irving said:Cullen and Biliek had both had less than brilliant loans previous to joining us.

We also need to settle on a formation. My question is how do we get two strikers on the pitch. A 442 diamond, but that nullifies CBT and Tyreece. The 532 is not working for us. A 442 would leave us exposed in the middle of the park. So that leaves 433. Would we play May out wide to accommodate Leaburn?
As well as needing a few more players, we need Holden to settle on a formation.

I think all our original striker targets have proved to be way out of our price range. We’re now reduced to looking for loans and not even credible loans like Cosgrove. If the Man City lad comes in then I’m sure he’s going to be ok. He wouldn’t still be at City if he wasn’t but he’s not progressing the squad into top six. Very disillusioned and angry because we’ve changed owners and now have another four years of inadequate investment and failure. Club is cursed. We’re dying on our arse. Lastly. Apologies to @Airman Brown who I thought was just a few weeks ago was being overly negative. I should have known better. As usual he nailed it. Just a matter of time now until Holden is sacked and we start the cycle again. Sad times.14

We still haven’t seen the 3-5-2 that Holden wants yet, with a proper striker for May to play with. If we sign a new striker (or when Leaburn returns) then I think a 3-4-1-2 with Chem Campbell playing behind the front 2 is the way forward. Until May has a partner then I think we should stick with the 4-2-3-1 from the second half yesterdayL0rd_M0ntagu3 said:

Next five days will answer all our questions as to where we are and where we’re going as a club.6

True but we need at least 2 or 3 to come in and make that sort of impact if we’re going to make the top 6. Chen Campbell could be one of them.Henry Irving said:Cullen and Biliek had both had less than brilliant loans previous to joining us.

Sounds about right, remember Methven’s sales doc said there would be just £1m loss per season and that would be covered by player sales. So don’t expect any big money signings.Redvaliant said:

also, you wonder if the deal broke down because the manager is under pressure and may not be here in a couple of weeks. Must be harder attracting players with a club in free fall.0 -
Tedic wouldn't be my first choice (or the clubs I'd imagine) but he's a decent option. Saw a few Barnsley fans wanting him over watters. Physical presence with decent technical ability.0

But it was sold that we had a shiny technical director and wealthy investors, so why no activity for weeks and now 7 days to go and we’re scraping the barrel?

Methven has sold the Americans we can be promoted without a major outlay in money, in fact it can be done without losing any money. It’s laughable but that’s the situation we find ourselves in.Valley11 said:

My view for what it's worth is that promotion is not even a target this season. They are hoping that Miles and plus one other youngster really push on this year and they can sell on for decent fees. Use some of that to fund bringing in a couple of players, supplemented with more loans and gradually build a capable squad. Think we've be fed more bullshit chaps.8
