Ist signing last summer was O'Connell on the 20th June, the year before it was Stockley on the 15th, so we're currently in that corridor of uncertainty!!!!

Despite what has been said I do not expect us to pay for any new players until the takeover is completed.
The longer this takes the more concerned we should be.9 -
The timing of the signings is irrelevant yes, sure, we signed loads of good players late on in a transfer window over 10 years ago, cool, but, if the likes of Scully, Dack May etc. players who have been or should be ones we are looking at are signing elsewhere then you start having to look further down your target list.
And thats where we really shouldnt be shopping anymore.

swordfish said:I don't like admitting to having a half empty glass, but I'm just not expecting transfer activity any time soon. I hope I'm wrong, but I can't see why TS would be bothered as he's agreed a sale and is probably anticipating it will proceed. I doubt it hinges on what he does in this transfer window. Official updates are meaningless without signings to back them up.
If that doesn’t happen now then perhaps, worryingly, it says more about the new owners’ ambition.0 -

It's never happened for us since and cant see it changing all the while TS is in charge
It remains to be seen whether Charlton can do the above whilst TS is in control.1 -

So if we've made an offer for May then that assumes TS has spoken to the new owners & they've given the green light.
If we've not made a bid for him then that's probably because either Sandgaards wont give the go ahead,or the new owners wont.
Perhaps @RonnieMoore can clarify.2 -

Do you not believe Storrie ??
Or do you think TS wont spend any money, even though it appears there is an agreement in the SPA that any spending (within limits) has been ok'd.4 -
According to a well known poster elsewhere, we’ve not submitted a bid for Alfie May. We’ve enquired as to his availability and price.
I expect Storrie, Gallen and Holden have gone for a long lie down when they got the reply.2 -

I think we'll be signing free agents this summer and loans again.1

But until we actually pay a fee and bring someone in I shall remain doubtful.1 -

TS, will not in anyway be spending any money on transfers, looking at PS has said would lead me think no money other than staff/players wages and the basic up-keep on The Valley and SL only, is all I believe we will see!
Sadly I feel we wont see May or any others until the ink has dried in 6 to 8 weeks time if we are relying on the EFL god help us!
Dont care what percentage TS will have in his stake of the lease, but we will have the scraps, however great time for the u18's & 21's to come through and make a name!0 -

Let's all chil.
We all have players we like and hope we may one day sign, Scally is a good player but we already have CBT and Campbell as similar players. Indeed DJ is also under contract.
Let's see what happens this week.1 -

Gills also out they have made their premier signing JW a free from Swindon.2 -
So is the general consensus that we’re clearly not signing anyone worth getting excited about due to TS still being in charge. And then when we do finally get taken over we have no clue what the budget is and everyone else around us will have started signing decent players by then anyway?2

Every fucking season. Without fail we do this every season. We sit there holding our dicks while other clubs hoover up all the best players and we fish around for scraps.
all because of a major Willy waving session in negotiating the takeover.The fact it’s dragged on so long is seriously endangering anything positive happening next season which in turn will just add more to the debt and losses
we do manage to find creative ways to hit ourselves don’t we
im getting bored of this. Maybe I need a little rest….40 -

anyone else find it amazing that you can type "Colchester's former right winger" into google and a name comes up.

There will be such a meltdown on here if Alfie May signs for Gills instead and rightfully so.
It's hard to believe there's a player who is available, who has been quite prolific for the past 3 seasons, who would definitely play for us and we can't get a bid together for him.
If we can't afford 200-300k for Alfie May (the rumoured fee), just end the season now with another mediocre mid table finish.
For those saying be patient, you're kidding yourselves, it has been like this ever since the Ricky Holmes/Nicky Ajose transfer window, feeding off scraps and frees season after season17 -
It’s ok all…. We will play what we have and then unleash the cash in January and surge up to mid table1
