The Panic Button

Post by box_of_frogs » Fri Jan 27, 2017 3:35 pm

At what point are you going press the panic button? When the asteroid hits next month? When Leon Cort re-signs? When Joey gets the inevitable ban? Have you pressed it already?

When my season ticket hasn't arrived in time for our first game next season.

When our ten point cushion over the bottom three is completely gone.

That would mean abc has replaced Dyche with their superior knowledge, keen eye for a player during 20mins and tactical ability....

Sign him up!

When the "foe" function is removed, and I can once again see the "troll shite".

Some have started lightly pressing it this afternoon come Tuesday morning I reckon the button could be smashed.

Some Leon Cort type signings and it'll be Armageddon. I'm confident our away form will keep us up.

No button pressage until the Leicester game - concerned at current Brady situation potentially leaving us with no player and no time to source alternative, but remain optimistic.

Even without Deano this squad has enough to see us safe.
I'll press the panic button in Summer when SD, Tom & Keano leave us.

Out of curiosity I've just had a quick google to see if he's still playing.

He's retired now from playing but is a scout for Bolton for the south of England.

There is no need to deploy a panic button this window, we have enough to get over the line as we are. However it would certainly make life more comfortable given the injury to Marney to have at least one in, and that would only keep the status quo (pre injury) not much further on squad wise given that Dean is not going to figure for a considerable amount of time..

I'd need wakening up to press the panic button. The whole transfer saga is becoming tiresome. I wouldn't be surprised if we don't sign anyone, anything more is a bonus.

If you find it tiresome it's easy enough to stay away from it.

I'm not fussed if we don't sign anyone. We're running along nicely with the squad we have. If we can improve it this window, brilliant. If not, I won't be losing any sleep. January window is a sellers market, and we don't need to buy unless the right deal comes along. A privileged position IMO.

I would have said the same until marney's injury.

Panic button or not if we don't sign anyone we are playing a very dangerous game of chance.

that's not the panic button of choice, we need the real panic button. Is it IanMcl that owns its appearance?

if they assumed snodgrass was worth that much and he didnt come here, then there is a bit of panic. 3 months to go, and looking likely another transfer window has been wasted. marney gone, barton might be unavailable, vokes, arfield, clearly nowhere near good enough.
probably best position we have been in, fantastic manager , and yet we appear indesicive when it counts.
