How much of the budget has gone on giving Marquis a 3 year deal.
We'll see who the next person is on the list, tomorrow night (I presume). I've read the Bury preview of their thoughts on us and it would seem the whole division know exactly where we are short.We either sort it before the kick off or, rest assured, teams will be well versed in how to get at us, particularly in the early matches.
Hes obvioysly gone to a club thats prepared to put their money where their mouth is!!!!!!!!Meanwhile were left with a crippled defence and an injury crisis before the season has even started!!!!WTF is going on!!!!!!! If we're giving a three year contract and more money to Marquis why cant we sign a defender to give ourselves a chance of staying up????Not good enough at all. DISGRACEFUL THAT THE SEASON KICKS OFF IN 10 DAYS AND WE DONT HAVE A DEFENCE!!!!!
And I repeat yet again that DF is being patient and waiting for the right person to fill the spaces we have left. Why do people assume that Taylor or Greer were top of the list? Neither was ever on our short list to begin with, yes they became available but they weren't identified initially.And until the PL clubs finalise their player lists we may not be finalising our squad either.

You're moaning about having a crippled defence but then moaning that we haven't spent a load of money on a crippled defender. We had all this negative shite this time last year, and on the morning of the first game of the season we signed houghton and mason. They didn't turn out bad did they. People need to get a grip

We dont have a defence and the season starts in 10 days...... you can dress it up however you want and we arent biding our time to get the right player because we have an injury crisis and no options at centre back.

People need to get a gripWe lost the first game 3-2 at accrington last year and had one of the worst defences in the top half of the table!!!!!Now weve gone up a division and dont have a defence so you do the maths. Its not hard to work out that were going to get punished in this area and any new defenders we bring in now wont have time to gel.We also have a manager thats had a bad defence throughout his career as a manager!!!!Whatever the budget is,, we need to blow it out the window if we have to in order to get some good defenders signed otherwise were going to get embarrased early on in the season.

However I have spoken at length with the club this pre-season and I had another telephone conversation on Monday morning when it was reiterated yet again that we are being patient and having to bide our time.Good players don't always get snapped up early doors, especially when players are attached to PL clubs. We will have to wait for them to start to finalise their plans before we can finalise ours. That's a fact of modern football.
George,Ha ha!! I don't say anything negative? Somehow I doubt very much if Gavin or Liam would agree with that!!But wetting my knickers on a football forum is not what I do, I leave that to people like you.

That's a fact of modern football.When your up the clubs backside,, you're bound to say that and not say anything negative because you wont want to upset anyone.When you take away the blinkers we're still 3 centre backs short with 10 days of pre season to go!!!! WTF is going on becayse I bet theres not 1 other club out there,, who is so weak in such an important position at this time!!!!
