Bolasie has gone

The Japanese have attacked Pearl Harbour too apparently.

It would be very, very wrong to say the Japanese were more accurate with their shooting.

Would it be inaccurate to say the Americans had a better defence than us?

That's where we miss General Krulak - if players put their hands up like they were first half on Saturday - I'm sure he would have had a few words about commitment. You only put your hands up if you are surrendering. etc.

Is that the same general who ran away when asked a few tough questions?

The only thing that surprises me about that is that it's taken as long.

I’m getting stressed with only 9 days left of window can we really see another def midfielder , LB or CB coming in ?

The dip in results plus the lack of transfer activity is a bit of a shitter.

Rumours don't normally amount to much anyway. Smith did say something along the lines of having 'several plates spinning' so they are working on a few things.

Could the two be possibly linked? Maybe it’s a lot harder attracting decent players when you’re mid table in the championship.

It looks like this season is a dead duck to me now, save the money for sensible signings in the summer if that only players available right now are massively over priced or very short term.

Now Bournemouth have signed Mepham maybe there is a chance Mings will come in before weekend rather than after.

According to Sky we offered Mepham better personal terms than Bournemouth.  He might regret turning us down.

I could believe that which is the problem really.  Hopefully we'll become a club that attracts players because of the manager and the career opportunity rather than the wages.
