If all the players sign today and play tomorrow against Covid outbreak Uddersfield then any score is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone suggested yesterday Mel needs to prove he could fund the club for 12 months (in case the potential takeovers/investment falls through). If he does that the players can be registered.

NottsRam77 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 This is ridiculous (and I know I’m being stupid) I’m refreshing here and Twitter like crazy … stressing over can we / will we make a signing just gagging for something positive from the club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's only for tomorrow's game, where the only real shortage is at CH. We can still get players signed until the transfer deadline on September 2nd. Plenty of time to get this sorted, even if it means playing a younger side for the first couple of games. Folk need to calm down a little. The hysteria is because we could potentially lose a number of future signings by our young players professional standing changing.

I think you need a reality check, as these first couple of games could give us a head start or continue our spiralling form from last season.
