Puts a slightly different perspective on things if it’s a loan not an option for us is it, this window is always difficult for us.Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 4:19 pm He's joining them on loan, which isn't an option for us and which hopefully suggests he wasn't out target.

Yes , we have struggled in these last few January windows . Last January was especially disappointingTop of the JES wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 4:32 pmPuts a slightly different perspective on things if it’s a loan not an option for us is it, this window is always difficult for us.Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 4:19 pm He's joining them on loan, which isn't an option for us and which hopefully suggests he wasn't out target.
Might Ennis not have been an option if the proposed permanent deal for Perkins had gone through?Top of the JES wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 4:32 pmPuts a slightly different perspective on things if it’s a loan not an option for us is it, this window is always difficult for us.Mistadobalina wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 4:19 pm He's joining them on loan, which isn't an option for us and which hopefully suggests he wasn't out target.
Compared to last Jan we've already surpassed it by signing two players that have actually played men's first team football.RedDwarf 1881 wrote: ↑Fri Jan 24, 2025 4:57 pmYes , we have struggled in these last few January windows .

We don’t want anymore injuries. The next 3 matches are crucial if we want to remain in the mix for the playoffs. We badly need a C/F so that if Dan Agyei and O’Neil don’t return as stated Kelman has Some help upfront. We have made a bit of money from our cup runsBandy Legs wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 7:20 amYes someone RW doesn't want.
Don't worry though Dan Agyei will be back start of February so Kelman is allowed to be injured for a week or 2 then
Money is used for decent wages on higher level players dropping down, as for no more injuriesmoonwalk19 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:20 amWe don’t want anymore injuries.

for us to buy a permanent signing. If the money is not given to RW then questions should be asked .According to RW we lost a player this week because we could not agree a fee that we wanted. Sometimes we need to push the boat out and go for it
It's one thing having money and another being able to spend it. finding an affordable decent striker at this time of year isn't easy. RW said last week he has money to spend "burning a hole in his pocket" but we won't pay inflated prices.moonwalk19 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:20 amWe don’t want anymore injuries.

If it’s a player that he really fancies that we can capitalise on later we should go for it.I know at this time of year clubs want to keep their good players particularly goal scorers but we have needed a good no 9 for so long we should be able to pay for one. Peterborough seem to find them.Top of the JES wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 10:39 amIt's one thing having money and another being able to spend it. finding an affordable decent striker at this time of year isn't easy.

I agree . If we're serious about making the play offs this player could make all the difference. It might be worth pushing the boat out on this one .moonwalk19 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 25, 2025 9:20 amWe don’t want anymore injuries.
