A journo has just texted me that they are already been given a spin. That Pochis very specific the type of players he wanted. And it was more him deciding not to sign for the sake of it. This journo also knows the truth, which ‘I/we may go public if it is safe to do so’. Club are watching social media like gestapos. No joke.

I really hope this isn't true. Simply because I like to think the club have better things to do at this moment than looking at social media.

But surely this window any signing we made would have been a speculative gamble, because the finished product that is good enough for our first team is worth £75m+.

I don't think this club is rich enough to buy the finished article, However we could have bought a 3/4 finished article so that Pooch can mould him.

In a way I HOPE they are watching and can see the level of frustration we feel. Thanks for all your updates. Grrrr ?

They say football fans treat transfer deadline day like Christmas. Remember that Christmas morning when you rushed to the Christmas tree and tore open your presents only to find your mum had rewrapped the toys you already owned. And you thought ‘Fuck you Mum, you slapheaded midget’. This is a bit like that.

Ok. So we don't sign anyone, but we have left the squad intact and that has to mean something. They will simply have to really earn their millions

Yeah, I think this has been said a lot and I think even the most negative person will agree with me, we know we have a great squad. However we are asking a fucking lot of them to challenge the likes of City and now Liverpool with some of the areas in our squad being weak. We are all gutted because we wanted this manager, this group of lads to be given that little bit extra to get them over the edge and it's a hard ask of them.

Don't call me Sherlock, I just figured out being brave was all about as some have taken it of context.

If anyone can think not signing anyone, retaining the core group of players, introduction of the youth, extension of contract for one of the top world goal scorer going into a new season is not brave, then we have all made a chronic mistake for expecting otherwise.

In poch I trust.:cautious::cautious:

Remember when the line the club was putting out was about how much certain other clubs had overpaid to bring in their players...

I hope no one bought that

"The 5 stages of grief are: : 1. Denial and isolation; 2. Anger; 3. Bargaining; 4. Depression; 5. Acceptance. People who are grieving do not necessarily go through the stages in the same order or experience all of them. "

I think we have reached Stage 2 now.

See, @Stoof - this is what happens to those who wait.

I am already at 5. Nothing to do but support the team we have, and not worry about the team we do not have.

There are 100s of people working for the club. And there will be an own section only responsible for Social Media.

Then you look out the window and see the **** next door doing wheelies on his new bike.
