He did - Dougie Freedman for what it's worth. Has he though? I suspect Dougie is basically signing off on which players are worth pursuing but Parish is still doing the contract negotiations. I know people who worked with him pre CPFC and he is a bit of a hard negotiator and I suspect it’s him nickel and diming on deals which protracts them to the point our windows go south.

yep, that sounds like you, 100% angry, 0% intelligence. In what way are my comments 0% intelligent? Or are you just doing personal abuse? Edited by chateauferret (31 Jan 2018 11.49pm)

Absolutely pathetic window. Shambolic, disorganised, amateurish and feeble. Time will tell if the three "prospects" we have signed turn out good investments and that is what Freedman is here for. But we needed reasonably reliable reinforcements in some areas to be effective now and Hodgson said as much when interviewed on the matter. We have done absolutely nothing to address those requirements except let Lille and Getafe dick us about in the knowledge that we had no Plan B. And this is exactly what happened last time. Then we had no DoF and we had the excuse that de Boer was not contributing. No such excuses this time. I wouldn't be surprised if Hodgson followed Allardyce out the door now and we will have difficulty attracting any kind of manager in the future given the amateurish bodge we make of these important deals. I am now of the view that Parish needs to hand at least this aspect of running the club over to somebody competent and properly equipped to deal with it because he clearly isn't. It's sad but have to agree, another very poor window for us, it may well cost us dear.

Window not looking good, but penny pinching? Do leave it out. Benteke, Wickham, Sakho, Zaha, Townsend, Luka, Dann, PvA, Schlupp, Sako, Cabaye, McArthur, Mccarthy, Hennessey, Mutch (yes I know), Chungy plus many others, plus the wages. Not all successes, but we ain't penny pinching IMO.

Expect Roy will 'retire' at the end of the season to go back to another job within 3-6 months. Good to get players for the future, but with a squad depleted with injuries the manager needed players for now. 2nd bad window in a row.

And thats fine, but its a little biting your nose off to spite your face, when average players are going for 30 mil and poor ones for 15 you really need to have a reality check, there the going rates, and we are not going to change that, if anything it will get worse.
