Really underwhelmed by activity so far. Poor planning for a promotion bid.

Hopefully it will start a bidding war!
I'm not sure it can. Surely all the interested parties have to do is meet the £7.1 million clause then he decides where to go.

Sinclair is starting tonight I see, perhaps he will stay after all.

Quite liked Gana but againfor the money being offered you have to get rid (I know he has a release clause anyway) I just hope we start to spend some of it sharpish or else I think Dr T is full of shit.

We've signed three players, we're letting some go then we're bringing in some more. It makes perfect sense to me, some people are just too impatient.

Gana. Yet another midfielder who can't score or shield a defence. Appalling work rate and caught so many times behind the play.

Good riddance.

Yes. However will we cope without his one goal a season?

Daily mail says we could hold out for more money for Gana.

Wouldn't be a bad move to get ride of both of them, Sinclair is especially poor. Gana goes hiding too much, when the chips are down he gives in.

Indeed and as much as I want to see some players go I think you have to keep them involved. Two reasons really, firstly 'bomb squadding' them has proven itself to be a terrible method to get rid of players. Secondly some of those who have to stay we're going to need to contribute. For example if we're stuck with Sinclair I bet he'll score goals in this league. Let's not cut our nose off to spite our face. We need more players in, but it needs to be done sensibly.

Apparently Fulham have turned down two bids for McCormack. I really hope we're not in for him. This idea that he's scored Championship goals before and that makes him ideal is just misunderstanding what his goals mean. They mean that it's pretty easy to score lots of goals in the Championship and we should be looking at better players than him.
