I was just thinking we must be one of only a handful of clubs who haven’t signed any new players yet.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that we have only released two first team players, while Rotherham have released 11.

I believe, we are the only league 1 club that hasn't brought in any new players at this point in time.

Reading are banned from bringing any in (I think), every other club has brought in at least 1.

Rotherham have brought in 10 as I post this.

Hope we are not left with the dross, after everyone else has picked the better players.

It's the same every year too

But we know that one or maybe two have been encouraged to find new clubs. Pigott plus.....?

Yet again we appear slow out of the blocks with our transfer activity.

That simply has to change if we want to progress . We've got to move quicker in the transfer market .
