    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - THE DEADLINE

    Surely being able to get up the pitch more and not being a solely defensive team for such long periods would take pressure off the keeper and back four? EDIT sorry, this absolutely isn’t for this thread so I’ll stop that shit right now.

    I can agree that you maybe personally won’t, but we had many people saying we’d announced a Doherty loan deal when it was a journo so I won’t change my stance ? I agree with you that we need both if not one of each and an extra. But I never expected a keeper in the window and I don’t think the...

    People hang on what you say, so I’d say it’s very likely. Your children are your priority. That is the thing. But ignore, I’ve appreciated your information and opinion for a long time. I’m genuinely sorry a disagreement of language makes that happen. EDITED to account for the post edit I was...

    I’m not getting smart arsed, I’ve been respectful the whole way, purposefully so. But we can’t have more than one priority. That’s not a thing, maybe it’s a difference of understanding, but we can’t. And you telling people that was a priority can be taken wrongly as that we didn’t prioritise a...

    The point I’m making is no. Yes we can have many wants and areas to improve, but if we’re telling people we have a priority position, no, we can have one as per definition.

    People are pissed off generally, and I think that contributes a lot to this. We sign X and they want Y, it’s a no win unless we sign them all. And none are a guaranteed success. We need to look at it objectively, and on that view a lot of the base want Levy out, and also we haven’t signed a bad...

    And I say this, because, ‘our priority’ which you said, is hugely different than ‘one of our priorities’. That’s why I pulled it. As we’ve been told several times this window that Porro was our priority. And that priority we got. Semantics yes, but we have a lot of posters who hang on everything...

    Yes, but a priority is a more important than all, it’s the definition. If we prioritised a CH over a RWB I’d be worried.

    I’d not have thought that personally based on how Conte plays I can’t lie.

    Well do you really think we’re signing a first team goalie in January? I don’t personally.

    Well we got two, so no. But I agree we need(ed) more. But you can’t have two priorities. You have a priority.

    But we didn’t , and apparently we got a less priority signing that I personally think will benefit us more.

    And if we’d done that and not got Porro, would you feel the same?

    We shouldn’t, but as I’m saying, it seems we are. And of the two, I’d take RWB every time over CH. And if CH was a priority, surely we’d have gone full bore for that rather than Porro? I’d love both, I want us to improve as much as anyone, but if we didn’t want to, then I’d have taken RWB too.

    I don’t think we’ve done either personally, but that is still to be seen and is very much objective in the view of no evidence either way.

    It shouldn’t, but it seems to be. And that’s not a ‘we didn’t sign our priority’ situation. It’s a, we didn’t prioritise all properly and push it situation. But if you’re telling people CB was a priority, then if we had to choose we’d take the CH and not the RWB. Which to me, and I can only...

    As I’ve said, I don’t disagree, and I won’t disagree. But if we do, and then improve the team and squad after, then surely that’s not a bad thing?

    I’d also dread to think what would be being said in the forum if we added Hinacapie and not Porro ?

    Again I agree, but apparently we also identified RWB as a priority. Which we added. I’m not railing against you here, I don’t want you to think that, but it’s still we didn’t add all we needed, rather than we didn’t add what we needed.

    I totally agree, and I’m not personally seeing the positives over the negatives, there are definitely piles of both, and potentially sizeable piles. The window was just enough, and as was summer (with hindsight for me personally, I liked the business at the time). I just wanted to temper people...
