Question for everyone

 

Are we stronger or weaker than when the transfer window opened?

Time will tell. It feels weaker at the moment.

 

I'm hoping for a curcic/frandsen effect of some sort though.

Do we really need to keep playing Madine?

 

His hold up play isn't even that clever, let alone the fact he is a shambles in front of goal

 

Is ALF for Madine with 3 behind (including Vela) that much of a stretch?

I hope we change it up top. Madine is useless

Question for everyone

Weaker

 

No doubt about that

 

But the issue is necessity over choice I think.

 

If the bills are piling up, we're in survival mode. I know people will argue that promotion is our way out of trouble but that annot be guaranteed even with Clough in the side.

 

Therefore, the money people who don't give a fuck about football just see an offer of £2/3million on the table for an "asset" that could snap any day.

 

I wasn't a footballing decision, as shit as that is.

On the face of it would seem weaker, but 7 points from 6 games tells its own story.

Most? Really?

Looking at the list on BBC site other than loans or free the others are listed as undisclosed

 

Thought these days most were but it was journalists who put a price based on what they had heard

 

A bit like wages as I don't think that usually gets disclosed

Stronger, hopefully. With ALF's goals, more options up front , not having Chris Taylor up as automatic first sub and a proper winger instead of playing an ineffective Clough there, hopefully stronger. I can only think Clough was told he had to go to help/save the club or why else would he have joined Forest.

Exactly

Defo stronger.

Hold onto your hats lads coz we're going up! (Possibly)

Weaker

Lost Sammi and ZC

Replaced with a couple of kids and a "goalscorer" who has hardly been prolific in last couple of years

The goalscorer hasn't been getting game time and it's also at a lower level.

 

He's going to score fucking loads.

 

Cheer up you miserable cunts.

I'd say we are stronger more based on the fact we now have the option of playing quickly on the break especially away from home now we have some real pace up top. Part of the reason for our dodgy form is the opposition manager have known for weeks which personnel will play and what system we will employ. It has got stale and predictable. Time to change a bit and go again.

I'd say weaker as I don't know enough about Long or the lad from Brum.

It's shitty to have lost clough for what seems like a pittance but needs must.

 

Hopefully Sweaty Ken and Parky can get a couple more loans in in the next week or so.

Dont think thats possible any more - emergency loan system doesnt exist now (I think)

All we can take on is anyone out of contract

We had a number of players who were arguably too good for this division - Beevers, Wheater, Spearing, Clough and Ameobi. We've just lost 40% of them and replaced them with maybes. To me - that's weaker.

 

Time will tell though.

Not many sellable assets left. Fire sale of trotter for 20 quid for example

 

Do humans have tallow?

Difficult to say whether we are stronger as we don't know much about long and this new lad from Birmingham. Clayton can come in the side to replace Clough, who wasn't in the best of form anyway. We also now should be able to be better at changing tactics with better bench options.

 

The main problem is the amount of loan players we have now. By my count it's A.Taylor, Thorpe, Le Fondre, Long, Henry, Otabor.

 

I think the rule is max 5 loan players in the match day squad, so one of them ain't getting in the squad.

Ive no problem if we had to sell to pay the bills. Although could we have sold ZC in the summer?

 

Still not sure why undisclosed

I wouldn't say weaker yet, the kid from Brum is supposed to be a great talent so, fingers crossed he's a Ameobi replacement. Sad to see Clough go, but delighted ALF is back. Time will tell in the next few games if we're weaker.

It's what we do. 

 

• We (the fans) over value our players.
• The club are a set of fannies when it comes to negotiations.
• We're always over a barrel

 

Probably a combination of all three.

Undisclosed is pretty common, isn't it?

 

It'll be to do with the structuring of payments and potential future triggers.

 

Or, if you're a bell end, to do with sparing the chairman's son a ribbing on social media.

I thought undisclosed was common to possibly stop other clubs knowing what you have to spend. Seeing we cant buy anyone, it just seems a bit strange.

If the birm kid was a great talent he'd be in their no wins in ten d ogshit side take as given

I still think we will add a free agent or two to the mix
