Thought we had until the end of the month?
Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
I don't think we desperately need anybody right now to avoid relegation. We'd be a better side with Brady/Snodgrass though.

I think we'll make one signing at least.
In an ideal world we'd get Brady, a central midfielder (assuming Marney injured and Barton to receive a ban) and maybe a striker if I'm being greedy.

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
Plenty on here earlier in the month that seemed quite content with Barton and Barton alone.
Aside from the need to improve out wide, in addition to the possible injury to Marney and a possible ban for Barton, I don't see much on the bench to change a game in terms of an attacking sense.
I'd agree with three - hopefully the net has been cast a little wider that Brady and Stephens, can see Norwich and BHA playing us to be honest, neither have a desperate need to sell it would appear.

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
If Marney's picked up a long term knock and Barton gets a long-ish ban, we're going into February with two senior central midfielders. Deja vu?
That's risky for a 442 and insufficient to the 451 we've played at times.

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
I worried about it last summer, voiced my opinion on it, then we went and signed Defour, followed by Hendricks and that was after we'd signed Pope and Gudmundsson

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
Marney's potential injury must surely be lightning a fire under the Board and Management's arses, that's for sure. If he's out and Barton does receive a ban, then we really need numbers in the middle.
Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
I'm not worried yet, but we absolutely need to strengthen. We're not out of the mire but any stretch - we've done fantastically we'll to get the number of points we have so far but we all know it's an unforgiving league. Potential long term injury to Marney and a ban for Barton leaves us very short in the middle. I still think we're a quality wide player and potentially a striker short too. A big week for the club.

Yes I'm sure they'd hardly given it a thought up til today!Lord Beamish wrote:Marney's potential injury must surely be lightning a fire under the Board and Management's arses, that's for sure. If he's out and Barton does receive a ban, then we really need numbers in the middle.

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
Don't see us signing a striker. Substitutions are only ever like for like, no room for anything different (cf Bamford). So Gray and one of Barnes or Vokes (generally).NickBFC wrote:I'm not worried yet, but we absolutely need to strengthen.

I didn't say they hadn't. I just highlighted how circumstances today may have sharpened their minds a little.martin_p wrote:Yes I'm sure they'd hardly given it a thought up til today!

Worked out fine last time...
Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
Wouldn't have thought so. They've known about Barton's situation since before he signed and Marney hasn't been fully fit since before Xmas (and always at risk of making it worse). They'll be fully aware that the centre of midfield is an area of risk.Lord Beamish wrote:I didn't say they hadn't. I just highlighted how circumstances today may have sharpened their minds a little.

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
No, I think it will happen on the last day as always.
Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
I'm getting concerned now yeah. Bids in and whatnot but I just feel the classic deadline day mugging is incoming

Re: Anybody else slightly worried were not going to sign anybody ?
The transfer window may as well be one day only, the last one. Nothing much happens until then anyway. I'm not worried at all
