I know the last two results have been shite but both Che and AA will score a good amount this season given the chance. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/championship/top-scorers 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Block41 Saint Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 Another woeful transfer window from the owners. Holgate, Fraser, Downes, Manning all crap. No Tella replacement and a striker who isn't fit to play for god knows how long. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint86 Posted 23 September, 2023 Share Posted 23 September, 2023 The ABK (basically free?) and JWP (£27m) sales were terrible business. Tella hasn't been replaced. And we only have 1 good fullback to last the season. Our LB is not good enough, and our back up right backs are holgate and bree. Absolutely shocking business. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really But I think it shows we had no real effort or plan to keep anyone. And also the way we sell ourselves as a team to join to get a better move - now the chips are down nobody wants to be here and that probably reflects in performances and also that those who congratulated the club on a great transfer window,it’s probably more by luck that we managed to keep the likes of Adams Sulemana kwp etc Edited 28 September, 2023 by pimpin4rizeal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osvaldorama Posted 28 September, 2023 Share Posted 28 September, 2023 In hindsight this is looking like one of our worst transfer windows ever. In one window the geniuses that are SR turned us from a squad challenging for promotion into a squad challenging to stay up - Sold best players - Didn’t sign keeper - Significantly Weakened midfield - Weakened defence - Significantly weakened attack - Signed crocked striker - Barely spent a penny - No leadership qualities added - Left all the business we did actually do much too late #WeMarchOn 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smaller clubs punished by something that is meant to even the playing field. Meanwhile Chelsea have spent over a billion in a year. Seems ridiculous if that's true. We've for years made massive sales and havent spent anywhere near as much as a lot of other teams. Even Bournemouth have spent around £200 million in the past 2 seasons and recouped about £1 million! Weren't Everton on the brink of FFP points deductions for ages and then just casually dropped £30 million on two strikers? Always feels like Saints are the only club to ever worry about this whilst every other club can spend whatever they choose! 🤣🤔 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately that extra £5m we held out for on JWP or £5m for Tella is no good when we have a week to replace them, by which point targets have moved on. Tino / Aarons was a fantastic example of that. @Smirking_SaintDo you remember when you called me clueless, a skate etc. because I said Leicester done the right thing by getting players in (and a settled squad) early in the window and we should have done the same... yeah, turns out the club agree with me...

The fee we got for Mane at the time was reasonable - Looks low now, but that's because prices went made very shortly after. Also - what on earth has that got to do with the price of chips anyway? we weren't a relegated side in desperate need for a rebuild when we sold Mane, like were this window. Very odd response, not quite the W you thought it was. Edited 29 September, 2023 by Dman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
