18 players in a squad is not enough to get through to may otherwise we could be a serious relegation candidate toward the end of the season Perhaps when our goalkeepers are all fit some of them could play in the outfield

At least 6 players have left and apart from the new keeper,Roy is not expecting anymore signings????

I wouldn't expect any more signings with this board either

Fair comment I was thinking that, was just trying to say something a bit younger in cheek as opposed to showing any anguish! You never know but I’ve begrudgingly prepared myself for no more incomings and concentrated my prayers on a glorious Benteke return!
Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!! |

If we are in for a few players would you expect him to confirm it. I'm not saying we are in for anyone but for most clubs it's all smoke and mirrors and only the top clubs with the big bucks can afford to be more open and direct. Mr Parish's speciality

We surely can’t be really thinking about playing until may with a squad of 18 players? I mean last year we signed three (albeit very questionable) players but still . Never going to understand SP or DF strategy in not just this window but several before it , if Roy was like allardyce we’d have three to four new bodies through the door by now If Roy was like Allardyce he would have walked away by now.

My word,a pyramid of piffle riddled with inaccuracies.I shall leave it at this as the allegations don't warrant any protracted response.

Really feel let down over transfers, other clubs at the bottom are all moving forward while we are standing still which effectively means we are going backwards. We are desperately short of goals in our team, Wickham and Benteke don’t seem to be the answer neither have given the impression that they can fire the goals we need to get away from the bottom 3. A fresh face may well have been the catalyst to us moving up the table but the board don’t want to spend any money. I suggest this a bit of a short sighted view as we’ve been desperately short of fire power all season. Thus far in this window there hasn't been much transfer activity in respect of the clubs at the bottom : Cardiff - Signed Niasse Edited by Willo (19 Jan 2019 7.41am)

Certainly not too many positive comments coming out of the club at present and based on this, supporters are of course worried, disappointed and starting to vent their spleens.
