My Crewe supporting friend seems convinced Kirk is on his way out , not necessarily to us , apparently had Championship interest too1

Have you applied for the refund on your season ticket yet? I seem to recall you saying a while back that it was sold to you under false pretences.addick1956 said:
Dear me. You were saying weeks ago that there was loads of time to sign people .Cafc43v3r said:
This week certainly hadn't finished weeks ago.addick1956 said:
You said that sort of thing weeks ago but it leaves no time for him to move on if he has something before the season starts.Cafc43v3r said:
And the week hasn't finished yet......addick1956 said:
The point is nothing has happened as Adkins said it would happen this week one way or the other.LonelyNorthernAddick said:
Or maybe they just didn't want to sign him? Adkins isn't the type to just bring in anyone just to fill a space in the squad. He wants players that fit into HIS team and I don't think he's likely to compromise - pretty sure he'd rather just play academy players than sign people he isn't 100% on.addick1956 said:If they can't seal with Gomes contract or not by now it shows they are fiddling around not knowing who they really want or missing out on everyone for what ever reason.
Please don't say there is plenty of time and everyone is in the same boat because that boat is a dinghy and tgatvmantra has been said for the near 4 weeks since the last signing. It should have managed better than recruitment have managed really.
Adkins said something will happen one way or another this week. You said obviously nothing has happened.
He has got until noon tomorrow to sign so he can play on Saturday.
As I said before , your problem is you are disingenuous.
There is sod all time to get players in before the season starts . 4 weeks ago during which time there has been sos all activity, you were saying there was plenty of time.
What happened to getting players to have a good pre season. 🤔 Wasn't that a CAFC aim for once after all the crap of the past few pre seasons ?4 -

Are they responsible for signings now then? Probably just following the be patient mantra.mart77 said:The Fan Adviser has just said ‘watch this space’ on Twitter to some moaning about the lack of signings and poor squad depth. Hopefully positive🤞🏻2 -
He gave 'air' so he's coming here I think...CH4RLTON said:My Crewe supporting friend seems convinced Kirk is on his way out , not necessarily to us , apparently had Championship interest too0 -
Could be true but unless he has said somebody had actually just signed it would be his positivity that she heard.mart77 said:

Oh ffs now he's off on one again.Redmidland said:
Couldn't agree more mate, just speak bloody English!! It's the same as "my bad", just say "mistake", the world's gone mad! Or is there a different saying or word for that?Hal1x said:Im getting to old for all this, why don't people just say what they bleeding mean- yes i'm coming or do you think i'm bleeding mad if they are not.
Anyway, did he ignore/not reply?
As if the NHS isn't under enough pressure, will you lot stop winding the old fella up!

Its been around for a while, as long as I can remember. I’ve never asked about the origin, I just know what it means and how to use it - Not dissimilar to any other word in the dictionary.Redmidland said:

Anyway, did he ignore/not reply?Language is just syllables chucked together to convey a thought or feeling, slang is as valid as any other type of language.
I don't agree with 'my bad' either, however at least I can see a correlation! What's the correlation between 'air' and its new meaning?
Anyway the point is, what is happening with Kirk?My understanding is it’s referring to the empty space between someone saying something and nobody responding. You can also comment on the “air time”, which is the length of time someone has been “aired”. Again, language is just nonsense sounds put together to articulate ones consciousness, there’s no one way to do it.Regarding Kirk, we probably have bid for him but the hype is most likely exaggerated from people guessing on here, I wouldn’t read into it.0 -

All the time the transfer window is open we have a chance of improving our squad.
We will see more signings permanent and loan I am sure.5 -

But for me there’s a lot of deadwood in there that wont be particularly motivated by a long slog in league one. Just my opinion.3 -
