It seems we're obsessed with getting an unfit Villa player in who hasn't had a pre season and is permanently injured. Hemed would have been ideal and able to hit the ground running.Don't care TBH.
They're said to be getting Tomer Hemed too, who'd be a better loan for us.
Does anybody actually think we are going to sign anybody? I've lost the will to live on this subject - when does the next window close?

He's always said he won't buy for the sake of it if what he wants isn't there for the price he's prepared to pay then he will walk away,it won't stop everybody blaming the board for a lack of ambition thoI think CW will keep his powder dry now for January. The right deal for the right player hasn't materialised. I know from his interviews that he believes Leon will come good, Billy is doing what Billy does, and there are now a few goals from elsewhere in the team, add in the resurgence of Ched and he might just hang on. If the exact right player isn't available, then that's the sensible thing to do.
Despite the general feeling that we should be spending money left right and centre, regardless of whether the business provides value for money, this approach has to be better for the club in the long term.Unlike almost all the other managers in the league, Tufty knows he has time. He's doing a good job, but he's pretty untouchable. He's not thinking about saving his job every week and the desperate buys that leads to.
Agreed It’s an even bigger risk if the 3’s combined age is pushing a ton Rod. UTBIt'll be a huge gamble/Mistake to go wi the 3 strikers we have nar till January.That aint a slight on the 3's ability but if we lost one through injury or suspension we aint got much/nowt to come into the squad.UTCB
I get your point FKB, but a striker was our number one priority back in May and so we’ve had all summer not to have to panic buy.There is a risk Rod, but I suppose we could always panic buy someone who is unfit/crap/returning from injury like everyone else. Whats Conor Sammon doing these days?
