I wonder if the club are going to sneak in Romeu from Soton.

Would not be a bad signing given our current situation.

What must NSWE think of this chaos we’ve caused ourselves?

They're the owners, the buck stops with them in the final analysis.

Belgian International right? They've been the beat team in the world on paper not grass for the last decade.

If we only end up with Dendonker and Moura on loan then something has gone very very wrong. 4th richest owners in the league WTF.

A step up from Hutton and Jenas at least.

The owners can see what we can, that the guy needs to go, they will have to have a big kitty for any new manager.

My gut feeling is our owners are holding back funds for a new manager in the next two windows. Not an ideal situation considering the circumstances but it’s where we find ourselves. The current squad is not playing to the sum of its parts, and a new manager will need to assess the squad before deciding on any further transfer activity both in and out. Surely an experienced manager worthy of the job title would be able to get a tune out of this squad?!

This is simply based on my expectations of the owners having been made aware of how things have progressed pre-season and decisions being made by the management team, and may explain the lack of transfer activity in recent weeks. It’s clear that there is something rotten in Denmark, so if they hadn’t seen this coming then this theory is total bolx, and the lack of any awareness would be as equally alarming.

Any one expect that a few hours before the window closes, we are going to bring in the level of players that are going to turn our season around?
No, nor me.

Why would you spend large sums of money on the wants of what is a dead man walking? I would much rather have a new experienced manager and a new CEO to steady the ship. The best news today would be the end of Purslow and Gerrard with a statement acknowledging that theres been a large cock up but that the owners are committed to putting it right.
