Itk Transfer Thread

[tyldesley_white]

No it isn't. Who we have when the season starts is the important thing.

Is the correct answer

[COYW]

A lot of deals aren't going to get done until just before the transfer window closes, which is well after the season starts, not to mention the loans window for Championship clubs, which doesn't close until November.

Yes

 

That's Dougies fault too

[gonzo]

Might not be Dougies fault but its bad practice.

 

Douglas or the club can't afford another catastrophic start again.

[DazBob]

 

These "better" strikers Freedman signed have just posted our worst league position in 20 years. We won 6 home games out of 23 in the 2nd Division with them.

Fenny at Yeovil?

so, we buy some stop gap who is better than what we have got

 

then 6 weeks later berahino (for example) is on offer for the season but we've spunked our load

 

 

i'm not sure which is the right way to go about it

 

and luckily for me and you, we'll have hindsight to judge

as DF doesn't like loans the first scenario is probably the one to aim towards, if he has a plan in place

 

the latter works and worked well for Coyle, make of that what you will

[Guest]

The only way we can buy anyone is if Eddie Davies hands another loan out. Under those circumstances the club probably have bigger issues to sort out than who is in the squad for early August!

[gonzo]

The only hindsight required is from last season,where the pick up random loan signings throughout the season to sort out the mess method failed dramatically.

 

If that's the hand we are forced to play with,then fair enough.

 

Just hope we can start the season with a settled team. I'm sure Douglas does too.

[Garrp]

Boro signed Kike for 3.3 million.

 

lets hope things get moving

[Sweep]

Jordan Rhodes signs two year extension

 

Does this mean we definantly not getting him for £8 million then??

 

I wonder why no club in the PL has taken a chance on him

[Casino]

i don't like lots of things but you make the best of it...

 

coyle used loans...a couple of good uns and loads of shit uns

 

 

so aye, its a toss up

you keep ignoring facts, young man

 

it did not fail

 

the failure was in the first dozen games, before he started picking up the 'randomers'

[tomski]

I think boro have stirred this Burnley interest up?

 

Very little coming out of Burnley on it.

 

Think its fairly clear Juke has his heart set on playing for the super whites.

 

I applaud the club for thinking about deals rather than paying whoever however much.

 

I'm sure we will lose out occasionally but think this is the way forward.

Posted this before but this is the table had it started from when the loans started to come in away at Blackpool

 

 

We've got a left back now, get Juke back and we won't be far away

Fine margins.

let's clear this up, as we weren't all well and good once we'd beat brum and certainly weren't play off form most of the season

 

first 10 games = 0.5 points per game

 

we won our first game at brum away, if you include the 2 draws before, we were unbeaten in 8

 

good form of that's there's no doubt

 

but from Boro away at end of Nov through to Millwall at home 15th Feb we played 15, won 2, lost 8 and drew 5 - which also incorporates the Reading 7-1 defeat

 

that run saw us get 0.73 points per game

 

before and after that run we did well, but over half of the season we had shocking relegation form

 

in summary: it wasn't just the first 10 games where we were absolute bobbins

 

one thing is for sure, things looked better with juketwicz in the team but can't be arsed doing the sums

[Casino]

you dont need to

 

just look at the fcuking table

 

i'll pick an isoolated run of games to show we were better than leicester if you like

 

fact is, from randomers coming in (gonzo introduced that) our ppg was just shy of play off form

[Zico]

15 games, in a row, is nearly a 1/3 of the season, hardly isolated

 

take away the first 10 games, the PPG gets us 65 and we finish 11th

 

which season as you using as 65 points being "just shy" of the play offs?

[mourinho]

We've got a left back now, get Juke back and we won't be far away

So still nowhere near the playoffs

[burnden]

Baptiste gone to Blackburn on a season loan.

[waffer cup 07]

Don't understand that .Should have let him go on a free.

[hughmungus]

Don't worry Super Dougie has a plan

[Guest]

So still nowhere near the playoffs

 

 

3 points is quite close
