NOTBLUE Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Just a pity we couldn't get 2/3 in during the summer,with the squad we had and confidence sky high we could of coped in this league quite easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WsM-Red Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 I know we haven't been relegated yet, and we have a fantastic fan base, stadium redevelopment etc, but who would want to sign for a club in the relegation zone with no manager, who may appoint a manager that doesn't want/like a newly signed player? If you're going to sack a manager in the January transfer window when the squad is struggling due to size and the club is struggling to secure players signatures, have another manager lined up at least! Why take weeks searching for a manager now? Unless the powers that be have lost hope and firmly believe we will be relegated, and therefore are planning for next season by looking for a manager to get us back up next year, and so they don't want to sign big names on big wages that may not keep us in this league. I would not be surprised if the new manager was unveiled after the window closes, so they can use it in their favour to avoid making ambitious signings this window - you heard it here first!

ChippenhamRed Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 "Holding midfielder" surprises me. Korey Smith has that role nailed and Pack can cover it in his absence. Surely the priority is competition for Pack (in his usual role) and/or Freeman, neither of whom I would describe as holding midfielders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shelts Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 Keepers sorted now as we have a new number one in O'Donnell. Creativity is where we are struggling, someone who can thread the pass that Bobby and Luke try but cant execute. Plenty of good movement and space created need that killer pass.

Kid in the Riot Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 People keep saying we don't have a manager. I'm pretty sure these players are signing in the full knowledge that Pembo is our current manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now he's our caretaker manager, and anyone signing for us now would have no idea whether the full-time successor would want them in their team or not. Neither would they be able to decide whether it's someone they want to play under. It's a grey area that makes it harder for us to make permanent signings - I don't see how you could argue with that.

Or an alternative spin on it could be that if we'd have signed 3 or 4 in the summer then the squad might have been annoyed that Cotts hadn't faith in them to do it. At least now the they know they've had the chance amd weren't quite good enough so will understand reinforcements coming in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I can argue with that alright. At least you've actually accepted he is our current manager, well done for that. Second point, I refer you to two loan signings made this week and other impending permanent transfers. We can reassess at the end of Jan if you like but it appears we are going to have signed more players in 2 weeks than we did with a permanent manager in charge for the whole of last summer and the previous January transfer window for good measure. People were saying last week we wouldn't be able to make signings and I'm afraid that is nonsense. We seem to be making it look quite easy all of a sudden...

redsquirrel Posted January 21, 2016 Report Share Posted January 21, 2016 they could be told pembo aint going nowhere but might well be assistant again soon.either way,they still get to work with the bloke and a new coach wont be allowed to diss jps players. my take on it anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
