G STAR RAM

Without knowing what happened with the Bird transfer its impossible for us to comment. Warne seemed pretty confident of keeping Bird.

We signed CBT and Adams, aswell as extending the loan of TJJ, is that not backing the manager?

How much money do we have to spend? And why was it reported last week that we couldnt make permanent signings without selling someone first?

I don't know much about the u21 strikers, that is why I asked the question. My only real recollection is that Warne was an awful manager 2 or 3 weeks ago for not playing Weston?

It was said last week when we signed CBT, that the reason he was signed on loan is because there was not enough left in the permanent signings pot unless we sold someone.

Are the u21s playing without strikers?

I cant stand the entitled attitude of some of our fanbase. Because them pots are limited and the players we went after were not available within our constraints?

Agreed, we should definitely be gambling our future, I mean it served us so well in the past, what could possibly go wrong? I despair.

Not to be different, just because I respect that a local businessman has rescued us from the mire and, despite losing millions in the first 9 months, on top of his £50m + original outlay, already has some fans screaming for more. Yes, the same fans that in hindsight lambasted MM for his reckless spending. Yes, the same fans that have spent most of the season saying how great our squad is and are being held back by our poor manager. So, yes, if going against is standing up against these spoilt brats who want everything I'm happy to do that. If we can't afford someone within our business plan, then we don't buy, its a simple as that.

Ditto

What an absolute bunch of whinging cry babies some of you are. Knew that it wouldn't take many of you long to forget where we were 18 months ago.

I'm amazed he's taking a midfielder back on loan... Well done on using yet another thread to attack Warne though 👏

Nah, just paraphrasing or conjecture I think 😂

Doubt it, he's said he isn't interested in midfield.

Where is Hourihane supposed to be playing then? Any deeper and he may as well be goalkeeper.

Cool story 👍

You keep on defending people for making theoretical things up to bash with Warne, I'll keep on calling them out 👍

There is no context to attributing quotes to someone who has not said what was being attributed to him. I think you're confusing paraphrasing and hyperbole. I'm not banging on about anything. Just pointing out that 'he is interested in a midfield' is just yet another made up thing to attack the manager with and can be filed along with:- 'Warneball' 'Nobody wants to play for him' 'He's a PE teacher' 'He wouldn't keep us in the Championship'

I don't need to look at whoscored stats thank you, I go to the matches. Lost count of the times I complained about Hourihane walking between our 2 centre backs with a hand in the air telling everyone to slow down and playing pointless 5 yard passes. During our good run he was actually getting around the pitch a bit more but he's gone back to being a complete passenger.

Of course I took it literally, how else was it supposed to be taken? As has been countered by quotes saying he doesnt want to lose Max Bird and he wants his midfielders to be braver, and also by the fact that he signed Embleton and Fornah, saying he isn't interested in midfield doesn't seem to be true.

That's been known for a while. It was also said that the EFL asked for no amendments to the business plan that DCFC submitted to them.

There's nothing to budge on. Either he made the quote attributed to him, in which case post a link up to it so we can see the context in which it was said. Or the quote was never said, in which case people can see which posters just make up things to try and attack Warne with. Its really that simple.

Not sure if you're watching the same game as me. Hourihane spends most of the match alongside our centre backs.

Its actually quite funny watching you try to convince yourself that you said something completely different to what you actually did say. You do realise your original quote is still on here for everyone to see don't you?

No, you've just steered what was said to fit your narrative. If someone says the manager has said 'blah blah blah' then there should be no need to gather what was meant, you should be able to point people in the direction of where the quote was made and let them decide what was meant. Of course if there is no quote to back it up then its clear that its just a false narrative to unfairly beat the manager with. FWIW I don't like the set up of Hourihane and Bird together, didnt do even before our winning streak, but I'm happy just to say that rather than make some more tripe up to make my point sound more convincing.
