Sheffield Wednesday showing that ambition. As I keep stating. There's saying. And there's doing. We are world beating at the former..
In a way we aren’t really competing with Wednesday, they’re so much richer. I imagine they and Ipswich will be the top two and we’ll be scrapping with Pompey and Posh
 
All these quality players getting snapped up by promotion rivals, yet we are treading water, and not even close, apart from a couple of loan signings that we can’t have yet.

The days got better, knowing there is money to spend, and KR has to spend it, well I’m afraid he’s rather frugal, and if he doesn’t spend it well he will be gone, because the boards aims and goals have been laid down as a marker.
 
Whatever you want to happen for OUFC you have to agree the stadium and history of Sheffield Wednesday dwarfs anything we can offer. Players will be swayed by that but many will see through the sheen and realise we are going the right way. Patience. We always find gems. This window will be no different albeit hopefully more defenders this time round.

Just watching Norton-Cuffy playing in the u-19 euro champs. Werent we linked with him? Just wondering if hes one of the loans that we are waiting on, as in will sign when the tournament is over...? Probably just clutching at straws though! 😁
 

Personally, my spidey senses tell me that the previous hundred plus explanations on this forum over the near previous ten years indicate that this is a fake account.

The other giveaway is that Marcus Browne was signed for more than £300k only a few months back.

There is also a slight suspicion that the thousands of consistently ludicrous and unrealistic transfer ‘stories’ which by design are both outrageous and totally ridiculous which have been peddled for sometime, presumably from a child’s bedroom.

Other than that, it strikes me as a seriously reliable source and I encourage everyone to accept everything as entirely reliable.
 
Wednesday believed to be offering Michael Smith circa 12k a week whereas he was previously on circa 4k at Rotherham.
If we needed reminding of the differences amongst the budgets in this division, even those in the top 8 are massively different.

Yeah we had an interest in January. He was outstanding at Lincoln. Think he may end up at Blackpool with MApp.

Callum Doyle is a player we have interest in who will be playing in that game. Left sided centre back.

I agree we do a lot of ‘saying’ but also it is impossible for us to compete with Sheffield Wednesday & Ipswich. (Derby too if they get taken over).

Outside of those 2/3, League 1 is wide open & we have no excuses not to compete.
 
How many teams have you seen not sign anybody after pre season starts? 9/10 teams will sign someone after the full season starts. It’s not all about us.

And who’s to say we haven’t got new players out in Spain?

But that’s half the problem. You bring them 2/3/4 games into the season they don’t have time to gel and we have been late in getting deals done for the last few seasons, although some will say the signing of Bodin and Baldock and even Browne are like new signings. But we still need 5/6 signings minimum just hope the crème haven’t been snapped up while we are still trying to get deals done.
 
I think we are in for 2 Young premier league players not sure what positions but think one is the lad from arsenal no idea who the other is but must be a winger, have a feeling we are after a centre back who has links with the club

I don’t disagree, but this is the norm the lower down the pyramid you go so I can’t understand the level of surprise every summer when all our business is not done within a few weeks of the previous season ending.
 
The sooner the McNally deal gets closed and he gets his move to Burnley, the better.

Irish Sun & Alan Nixon both said we’ve rejected £1.5 million so hopefully it’ll be very close to the £2 million pound mark with or without add ons.
