We need to make the signings now, not the summer.

This way, we’ll then have a full summer to look to loan them out after they disappoint over the next few months. 

"After scoring just 1 goal in 20 games since joining in January 2024 for £230m, Charlton Athletic have agreed to loan Erling Haaland to Cambridge United. It is expected that Charlton will pay the majority of his £500k a week salary."

Strange

1. JCH scored 2 for Peterborough tonight, doesn't look a busted flush.
2. Anyone upset about our shite defending watch the Peterborough v Barnsley highlights for Peterborough defending for both goals against. 🤣🤣

Would probably rather Humphrys to JCH, both would be incredible. I am going to predict neither so I am not disappointed!

Heard that we were looking at Cameron Humphreys from Ipswich on loan. Assume it’s to replace Camera when his loan is cancelled in Jan. 

It can't be cancelled 

Neither JCH or Humphreys will be signing for this crock of shit! They can check on the availability of Erling Haaland if they like, still won’t be signing him. Utter bollocks.

Fair enough. I assume all loan deal has a break clause in the January window. Plus, his name was mentioned in the injury update by the club this week.

Appleton thought we played well last night so forgive me for taking everything he says or suggests with a vat of salt

In fairness, If the players hadn’t let him down with their Sunday league defending in the 94th minute then it would have been a good away point.

The question then is what’s he doing to rectify it. 

That’s now 5 goals conceded in the last 5 league games with goals going in from the 80th minute onwards.

Standing there like a wax work from Madame Tussaud’s is not exactly helpful or inspiring 

He’s already told Andy Scott how to fix the problem.

Stop buying / loaning soft youngsters and bring in some experienced leaders.

I think we might get two strikers in but I doubt it would be both JCH and Humphrey’s.

If we got strikers in would Appleton play them as strikers though? 😂

My priorities would be:

New GK
New LB
New creative CM
New RW
New target man forward

That should be the starting point, and that's assuming we don't lose anybody.

With the exception of GK I don’t think your list is very far wide of the mark.

I'd still want another CB in tbh, one who is left footed, big and nasty

Reading and Blackpool interested in TT 

We will need to sign a new left back first. I’d probably start Thomas ahead of Edun next game anyway 

I don't think we have a single truly reliable CB at the club currently, so any we can push out the door and replace is a good thing IMO.

They are welcome to TT.

3 bids from us rejected for JCH according to Barry Fry , Posh want a "significant fee" but less than the £800k Bristol Rovers had agreed in the summer 

Interesting comments on there from Fry on JCHs personality which goes against what has been on here lately.

Fry’s a salesman. He’s making him sound like he’s up for a Nobel Peace Prize
