Does it? Were they not in the MK Dons squad?

Dunno, most were in the Fulham one though.

Granny WeatherWax

That’s it, in a nutshell. Sadly Bournemouth (a Championship team, regardless of how much they spent on it) have a stronger ‘squad’ (if not team) than Premier League Burnley. There are only about five of our team tonight good enough for a Premier League squad, with others in there that are not (and ...

What front 4 ?

Exactly. Jay this season, apart from the odd moment, almost looks like he’s lost it.

Granny WeatherWax

Easy to make Stephens the scape goat, the front 4 have been far worse.

Front 4 shocking

Said it on the match day thread, I Can’t wait to see Southgate get the best out of Foden, Grealish and Sterling. He’ll probably make his life easy and just play Rashford instead.

If only Nick Pope could play out from the back.....

Granny WeatherWax

Some drama queens on here. It’s not Dyche’s or the players fault, it’s just a complete sporting mismatch.

We’d have to play a conference side for the gulf to be as big as it is between us and city.

You said people need to realise the owners aren't rich - that should be very obvious to anyone who has been paying attention.

Yet we’ve loads of people on here in faux outrage we aren’t splashing the cash.

The stigma was awful. You can understand the fear, but its harder to forgive the cruelty. They were treated like lepers

Horrific. Imagine that happening now in the current pandemic.

A creditor is someone, or a company, to whom money is owing.

You don’t need to explain what a creditor is.

We were taking about where all the imaginary money is to buy players, you just pointed out we are in debt.

The money certainly isn't imaginary. It is sitting on our balance sheet under the heading 'creditors'.

I’m sure that made sense in your head.

I don't think anyone has ever referred to the new owners as that, given the way they have used other people's money to acquire the club.

You wouldn’t have thought that the case given all this imaginary money they are spending on their behalf.

Garlick has let it het this bad, I hoped the new guys had possibly got here just in time to salvage something from this window, but appears they didn't. 55m in cash reserves we had over the summer... 55m.... FIFTY FIVE MILLION That has now gone into the previous share holders pockets... You wanted ...

Sean will feel let down with the positive noises re transfers being just total rubbish and I can see him seriously questioning his future.He had nonsense off the last board re funds and deserves to be backed by the new board not shafted Will he? He’s not seemed anything like as frustrated this wind...

Thankfully fans arent allowed in the stadium, as their opinions might have a negative impact on results and our stay in this league. Who and why have they let it get this so bad for so long, hang your heads in shame You were blaming Garlick last window, and unwilling to listen to reason. Who you bl...

Around 9m? The same as Kenny! Kenny who's younger than Brownhill when he came in? Kenny who's played at a higher level than Brownhill before he came in? Do you get it? Brownhill had played over 200 league games at a high standard before we signed him. Kenny has played about 20, most of which were s...

Let's hope quality young right backs with plenty of playing experience are available this summer for £10m.

Remind me, how much was Brownhill?

Would it? What do you expect to pay for a starting right back in the summer when Bardsley has gone and teams know we need a right back?

If we were going to pay £10m id expect it to be for someone with a lot more playing experience than JJK.

Granny WeatherWax

Appreciating that we won’t be awash with available funds for players, I’d hoped, particularly with the current climate, that there would be a good few opportunities to take advantage of clubs in a far worse position. Exactly, shop in a different market, but still hard work given current conditions ...

Granny WeatherWax

"They won't be getting quoted £10m for a 3rd (at best) choice right back" So, what price do you expect will be quoted to us in the summer when players will be so much cheaper (allegedly) as we carry out our squad overhaul? As I can recall players were still way out of our financial reach during the...

235 transfers does not tally with " almost impossible "

Why would i be referring to lower leagues, pretty clear its a different ball game in the EPL, and how many of those lower league transfers involved a fee. Its a completely irrelevant comparison.

Make it 235 and counting by Premier League and Football League clubs then

Apple and Pears. They wont be getting quoted £10m for a 3rd (at best) choice right back.

And yet over 220 permanent and loan signings made by Football League clubs already this window despite is being told many of them would have been out of business by now

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=52111

Granny WeatherWax

ALKs business model is based on championship revenues so find it hard to believe we couldn't service the loan at current.

Granny WeatherWax

I thought it was wonderful. Horrific how the gay community were treated.

Granny WeatherWax

The January window is normally a really difficult time to sign players, so this window given everything that is going on makes it almost impossible.

The arrogance and ignorance by some people on this thread is startling.

Granny WeatherWax

Anything but an away win

Granny WeatherWax

Yeah. It said “we’re at turf moor so obviously our striker has been on the end of a dreadful challenge”

Granny WeatherWax

Pope 8
Lowton 6
Tarkowski 6
Mee 6
Pieters 7
Brady 5
Brownhill 5
Westwood 6
McNeil 8
Wood 7
Rodriguez 5

Cork 8
JBG 6
Vydra 8

Even when he isn’t at his best he’s far better than the rest offensively. People take him for granted that he’s gonna put players on their arse each game. He’s a cut above.

Granny WeatherWax

Vydra did more in 2 mins that Jay in 77. I think I touched the ball more than Jay from my sofa

Granny WeatherWax

Would be a rubbish year to win it, or even get to the semis. Imagine not being there. Grim.

Granny WeatherWax

Bloody lock down, imagine the scenes. Imagine the moaning in the pubs on the way back to the station. What a result.

Was selected for live broadcast, via stream, just like Amazon games. Granted it didn’t have all the paraphernalia surrounding it, and the website was dire but it was still available.

We're 1-0 up and he's a fullback. Perfectly understandably why he's not bombed forward.

Bombed forward? He’s not been forward. Even at 0-0

Positive note - Pieters has looked solid at left back.

Solid but offered zero going forward, and our full backs getting forward is how we play.

Wood has stayed on cos he’s taller

It’s like playing with ten men when Wood isn’t scoring. Utter garbage.
