  • We are in the same boat, but haven't yet really started the rebuild.

    We currently have 12 first team players.
    Yep ...... and you can probably guarantee we'll sign 5 loan players before the end of the window.
    We always do, same as every club in this division.

    So that'll be 17. And we've been told there's more irons in the fire behind the scenes.
    I hate to disappoint, but we are sure to have the numbers in by the the time the window closes.

    And certainly sufficient players in numbers and quality to put out a decent competitive team  for our first game. :smile:



  • Really  ??  I'm starting to think the opposite. Too faux positive. As someone posted months ago, just sounds like the "really brilliant !!!! " bloke from the Fast Show. Cheesy peas anyone...?
    Jeez - 5 minutes with you must be so depressing 
  • Anyone know if we will sign another today? Bit of a strange one announcing so early. 
  • Yeah, he's a breath of fresh air in a cynical world.

    Nice one. Appreciate that.

    Every time you post something from now on, you're gonna have 8-9 other people suddenly saying: "That's what I've heard as well."
    And someone repeat it 3 days later.......

    You sound like you'd love the manager to be Russell Slade. :smile:


  • You reckon anyone made it to 5 minutes?
    Fair point - his comments on match threads are bad enough, but that comment was - well - bottom of the barrel !!!

  • I paid a quid & got a certificate.
    I was robbed.
  • Maguire? He'll bring the average age right back up again. 

    I can't be the only person to wonder if Maguire or someone similar is going to replace the homesick Ronnie Schwartz ?

  • It’ll be interesting to see how he does in pre season. Feels a bit like the signing of Simon Walton. But what do I know. 
    Good luck George.

    Mullin only 26 so coming into his prime it would seem 

    Lyle XXXXX was 27 when he had his first good season as a goalscorer at Wimbledon  and his time at Charlton was successful until the injury and the big contract turned his head.

    If you can score in League 2, you can score in League 1 IF you can be used around and in the box with a good service.
    Just a hunch but I feel Ronnie Schwartz will be staying home ?

    Talking is good

    Talking is good and so is walking according to Nigel, and Ben Watson. :o

  • That was his valuation that Wimbledon were going to pay ….. 
    why would Wimbledon be quoted £250k? It was reported he was going to be available on a free, Wimbledon offered him a contract which he turned down.

    I know what you mean but, Lord I've worked for bosses who who were totally negative and couldn't inspire me. They absolutely sucked the life out of me and made it a misery to go into work. That is something that can never be aimed at Adkins. 
  • As if Wimbledon were going to pay 250k but thanks to our super negotiation skills, a club in debt settled for zero.

    Wimbledon were quoted 250,000 in May .. what’s happened between then and now ??

    Compare this guy to bowyer must be a totally  different  atmosphere  around club brilliant.Center back in today or tomorrow fingers crossed it is tucker.
    Agree. Must create a much more positive environment.
  • Wimbledon were quoted 250,000 in May .. what’s happened between then and now ??
    Source?  There are loads of articles from local rags linking him with a move back to Wimbledon and leaving Sunderland since April.  Not a single one quotes a fee, let alone that exact one. 
  • RedRobin said:
    Simon Walton? He cost us £1m from Leeds and was useless. George is coming on a free and has over 100 appearances in league 1, no comparison 😂
    You’re right. I’m talking out of my arse. Think it’s the humidity.
