Wait what? Another puts a shift in midfielder as opposed to technical player?
I would call Hourihane and Bird technical (and too similar) players and our midfield lacks someone who can run around a bit.
Sounds good signing for me.

We’ll soon beat that out of the blighter! FORUM, WHO’S WITH ME?

Looks happy to be here. Hope he energises the whole team. The midfield combo will be vital.

Sounds like this one has been in the pipeline for a while but we probably wanted to keep the interest low-key to avoid any rivals becoming interested 

It's quite refreshing to see somebody so obviously excited at  joining us, not playing it cool.
Go well, fella.

Be happy with both being allowed to get forward if they have cover behind them. Hourihane further up the pitch playing to his strengths? Could be like a new signing

I liked the interview he comes across as a confident person and happy to be here...no slouching in the chair 😁, Gonna admit...I've never heard of him...so here's to a good signing 👍

We simply don't have the budget to shop for players who come without a level of risk.
Wilson was also a sick note, but he's been one of the stand out players this season.

You really do have a strange habit of making even innocuous comments seem like you're trying to sneak an underhanded jibe in 😂

Better than Fanny Adams I guess?

Apart from 45 minutes v Fleetwood though, Vickers hasn't played with Fozzy and Nyambe in front of him. Maybe it's as much their absence that is making the defence less solid.🤷‍♀️

Would it have ? Has played 4 professional games since 2021/22 season and we have 3 right backs and Korey smith to cover the position.

Aye

I had to check it wasn't @Caerphilly Ramthat made those comments ! .He's usually more positive than that and ,more often than not,will put forward a balanced and unjaundiced view.

Other than our own local forum mystics (🔮) and the recent leaky sieve at Charlton’s end, weren’t most of our transfers in the summer kept quite well under wraps? I might be misremembering but I feel like lots of the links from journos and Twitter/X teens were non-starters. 
Warne has said a couple of times that bids (plural) are in, so I’m hoping we get a couple of surprises before the deadline. A striker and a loan midfielder maybe. 

That last bit just won’t wash with some people I’m afraid, despite the amount of sense in your post. 
 

Not playing the game right, mate. Repeat after me; the only reason JCH wouldn't come is because nobody wants to play for Warne and our owner is a tightwad.
Booooooooooooo!!!!!!!

This is what was said by Clowes;
"Paul has been given a budget, I think a good budget for League One that is good enough to get us out of the league. But it's football and nothing is guaranteed."
 
Both Clowes statement that he thinks the budget is good enough to get us out of the league and Warne saying today we’ve been outbid by another club for a player can be correct. What are you looking for them to be correct about?
We are still within a very realistic position of earning promotion this season despite the lacklustre recent performances. Having a competitive budget for promotion whilst still apparently having limitations in line with the agreed business plan seems to be the reality the club is in from what little information is out in the public domain and has been reported on by the press. 

Smaller dressing room?
