Joking aside we could have done with one or two new signings today . We have injury problems plus I think the players might be a bit fatigued . Don't forget Cambridge didn't play the other day so will be fresher . That's why I think we'll lose today something like 2-0.

The LOFC Board are not sanctioning the signing of anyone to spite Boarders here. Any spare cash will be used to stock tena men in the club shop for later in the season.

Todays subs bench shows how badly we need reinforcements.

Galbraith playing out of position at full back, Sanders out of position as a 10, Theo and El Miz both carrying knocks, Agyei still being eased back in. The squad is running on empty.

Wonder if this Board should adopt transfer windows?

No change of aliases after 31 January until the window opens in summer and closes at end of summer again

PS Orient winning away, why do they need new signings

Why do we need anyone after 7 points, 5 goals scored, only 3 conceded and 3 clean sheets in the 4 games over the festive period :?: :)

Answers on a postcard.

Nothing on the bench to change the game had Cambridge took the lead. Zero cover for injuries and suspensions. Pigott is our only other fit striker.

Cambridge didn't take the lead though did they? We win, have taken 7 points out of the 12 over Christmas, have 3 successive clean sheets and people are STILL moaning. Some of our 'fans' are a total joke.

nearly 10% of the transfer window gone

Not a single player has been announced as leaving or arriving yet.

I blame LOFT personally

T'was a great festive period but everyone can see the squad is collectively in the danger zone. Injuries will only get worse if we keep pushing players too hard.

There's obviously no need to panic just yet, I hope Richie and players are having a few days rest. But we could really do with whoever is coming in to be here over the weekend, ready for next weeks training.

Youse lot need to buy more stuff from the ads on this Board. The Mods are sharing the revenue stream profits over £100k per month with the Club to invest in new players. I gather that so far we have generated £4.85 and 2 flash Gordon fan club badges.

How is Richie these days? Sounds like you're a bit in the know. I'm pretty sure Richie would be giving the players a few days rest.
As an aside, can you make sure to give us the signal if it becomes necessary to panic.. sorry, but i couldn't resist.😀
