IslandExile Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Football is all about emotional rollercoasters. Rumour that your club is chasing some superstar signing leads to feelings of disbelief, hope, excitement, anticipation, impatience. Eventually to be followed by realization, disappointment, despondency, disillusionment, pain, anxiety. It's what we're all in it for.

That one especially but any where departures are more likely than arrivals. Stress. That's another emotion to be ticked off the list.

No need to worry, maybe we won’t get anyone in the end? This teams got togetherness, I’m not worried if we don’t end up signing anyone. But, we can’t spend any money, he must be the right age and must be the right type of person who can fit in our close knit group of friends. It’ll be difficult to find.

I find it quite remarkable that a group, predominantly thrown together in a very short space of time, and so very recently, have become such a close knit group. Last season our predicament surely forged the group of players that we had together. But this season is different. We have no such predicament. So is it the small nature of the current group, or simply down to the culture created by PW and his team that has brought them together so well? Whatever it is, I believe that if PW brings in anybody in, they'll probably fit in nicely. And if we don't bring anybody in, then I think the current group can get us up. My biggest fear is should we lose a key player, what effect that might have on the group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all like a free mug, and I think these mugs have a lady in underwear on them which disappears when hot liquid is poured into them. Simple, but very effective.

AndyB Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 LR takes some credit for the close knit group I think. When the players were being signed a lot was said about players who knew each other already and how existing squad members, such as Stearman, were used to ensure the right characters were being brought in. Given the limited time he had and the limited pool of players available due to the restrictions LR did a great recruitment job. And Warne is now doing a great job getting a tune out of players he didn’t sign. archram, Jackal, Wsm-ram and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magicman Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Going to be tough to add this window with the team doing so well. At a minimum we need a new striker to share the load with Collins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seth's left foot Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 One player has told Warne that he’s signing, I’d imagine we need a CB too if Curtis wants first team football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matchday Fred Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 (edited) We would all recognise a club performing well on the pitch decides to strengthen from a position of strength in the Jan window, and brings in the wrong players, upsetting the delicate balance that was delivering performances pre Xmas. Whilst we need a right back and some more attacking weaponry, I’m sure Warne will be aware of the need to maintain the balance, and will be treading cautiously. For me one or two of the right type is what we need, no prima donnas and that includes Madonna and Maradona.
