It was a failure, we didn’t strengthen where we needed to. Dougie’s excuse was “we had the money from the AWB deal, but we would have paid over the odds for another right back and striker, because it was common knowledge of the money we had in the bank”. If that was the case why didn’t he source the buying or loaning of a right back before we sold AWB. I don’t trust the scheming Scottish t***, and if he has ideas about being the manager again I think I will go and watch Whyteleafe Football Club play on Saturdays... Judging by the transfer window and the club are all ready paying him this could well be on the cards as the cheap option if the wheels fall off this season

Unforgivable that we didn't pick up a striker. No direct cover whatsoever for our wing backs. Terrible performance in the window as always by the current runners.

Not a massive fan of DF...but taking his name out the equation, it is fair point that prices have been over inflated because of the windfall. Forwards which may be setting Russia alight but with zero premier league experience being touted for 30 mil as one of many examples... Not disagreeing that we need a forward, RB wise I think Ward will do a good job this season. I'd rather they thought about getting in the right players rather than spending 50 mil in desperation and getting utter dross. Edited by CPFCwetrust (17 Aug 2019 12.16pm)

I don't think I need to assess the transfer window. I'll let the performance of 11+ millionaires let you know all you need to know following todays cowardly display.

Time to drastically re-think the tactics. I hope Roy is thinking to use Camarasa as a link between the midfield and the forwards.

Had a sensible window Dougie is right. Why get bent ova for average players coz everyone nows we've got cash on the hip? That Norich lad is rubbish and ppl on hear wanted us too pay 15 mil for him more like 15p! Were b ok, plenty of rubbish in the division sell Zaha in Jan and then rebuild next summer with new manager
