So we have stepped back.. This going to happen with the targets, but let's hope we don't get left with the dregs!I’ll believe all these rumours once we actually have some tangible proof of a big money signing. In my mind, you don’t even need to spend big fees to get out of this league, just big wages. The list of wage bill (except us of course!) can get pretty close to final league position each season.

Yet another example of why we shouldn't take the leaks coming out of the club as fact and wait until it is officially announced
Until a deal is 100% done it's 0% done.
And until Bair moves somewhere else or the window closes, it can still happen.
It was never done deal, I said that at the time.. It was close, as clubs figures were close at that time, and he was interested..0 -

New signing. Not convinced she can do a job for us but would still take her over Lyle.

He knows what he is doing, and he is keeping his cards close to his chest.
What he doesn’t need, is to let the potential targets names out of the bag and have their merits discussed on social media.
I am sure as soon as the window opens new signings will arrive.
Also I don’t know because I don’t visit the Rotherham fans forums, but was there any discussion on their signings prior to them signing on the dotted line?0 -
15 years of downward spiral, our worst league finish in 98 years.
30 odd transfer windows of hearing about "super duper deal phones"; "narrowly missing out on our biggest signings"; "doing an Ipswich"; "black boxes"; "going after Championship level players". Whilst we sign players of the calibre of Kirk, David Davies, DJ, Terrel Thomas etc
It's no wonder a few fans are sceptical even if that is unfair with relatively new ownership.
So calling them bed wetters when 99% are simply stating a view rationally which may differ from others is a nonsense.
In fact I see more people wetting the bed about "bed wetters"!
Personally I am heartened by what Swisdom and Dubai are posting, it's early in the window and not time to worry.
But we do have a LOT of business to do (NJs words) AND want to do it quickly. I think the trip to Maribor is early July isn't it, so that leaves say 6 weeks by which time NJ wants the vast bulk of the squad in place. That is no mean feat.59 -
Spot on Athletico.1

Yes it is too early to judge, but I naively hoped that Jones had some more unknown nuggets like Ramsay and Small, up his sleeve. Hearing previously from those supposedly in the know that a player with initials LB, was an oven ready signing. About as oven ready as Boris's Brexit deal for Ireland.
Unlike most on here, I'll be at the Valley every game regardless. I believe I've suffered enough these last 10 years or so watching rubbish, uninspiring and passionless football. Jones has given me hope. I just want to see us on an upward curve again.2 - Sponsored links:

Oh Eddie Youds... said:Ipswich spent £1m on a left back when in league one.
We’re told by our board (Elliott) that we are planning to do an Ipswich. I guess we’ll see whether that’s true & how ambitious the new owners really are with Bair.
If we wait around for weeks hoping that Motherwell will take £750k, he’ll get snappped up by another club.
We've been here before. Waiting for a player or club to accept our "offer" and when they finally go elsewhere it's too late to get a decent replacement. If you want a certain player then break the bank at get him. Don't piss about because Motherwell have upped the price a bit.
But I'm always wrong so what do I know.0 -

If we offered £1m for him but had to wait till the end of the summer for him to decide who he signs for, that’s where you leave it too late to find a replacement and you’d still end up moaning0 -

p.s Anyone thinking we aren't in negotiations with multiple clubs and players right now are very far from the mark.11

I don’t think we have signed anyone, but how do we know that we haven’t, the new management team seem like to play things close to their chest and to wait awhile before announcing anything.1
-
As many have already touched on, we’re all sceptical after the shite we’ve been through as fans and rightly so.But it’s the fault of no one in here so just remember that before you go slagging off ITK’s or anyone else. We all want the same thing.2

We all agree we need minimum of about 7 players, ideally more like 10. If you "break the bank" on the first 3 signings, the others will have to be frees, loans and dregs
If history has taught us anything, it's that we need a strong squad of players, not 5 or 6 brilliant individuals surrounded by dross5 - Sponsored links:

To go up you need a good number of your starting 11 to be capable of playing in the Championship by the end of the season.
Agree we don’t want to panic and spend big on a few and leave us with a too limited budget for others.0 -
Its a merry go round. Clubs making offers, talking to agents then talking to players who are lying on some exotic beach discussing the pros and cons with their other halves. Unless they are desperate, players will wait to see what offers come along. After all they are still getting paid at the moment.0

Red_Chester said:Apparently we’re interested in Josh edwards who is a LB for Dunfermline
Wycombe Wanderers and Blackpool are both considering summer bids for Dunfermline’s Josh Edwards.
The defender has impressed for the Pars this season and is now attracting significant interest from several English clubs. Barnsley failed with a six figure bid in the January window and Oxford United have been long-term admirers. Their English League One rivals, Wycombe and Blackpool, are both keen on the 23-year-old. They have had him scouted and watched regularly and are both weighing up six figure bids.
Edwards has been a regular for Dunfermline since he joined from Airdrie back in 2019. The Pars have taken up the option in the 23-year-old’s contract. He was a major player in Dunfermline winning promotion and then establishing themselves back in the Championship. Edwards has been a standout under James McPake and the Fifers have to decide whether to cash on this summer or risk losing him for nothing the following summer.

Even if Dunfermline do receive a bid that meets their valuation, Edwards is understood to be determined not accept a switch to a club that does not suit his development.
