Wonder if the loss of our royal highness has affected the players?
Just said that to the Mrs. Asked her if she thought the players have been affected by the Queen's death. She said the players are dying a death for sure 🤣

This is an awful watch. Our midfield is League 1 standard and will prove to be our biggest problem for the remainder of the season.

Dale Stephens is at Rockcliffe for a trial
He'll be needing a lift into training every day if we do sign him.

And this is where I depart, before it turns into another recruitment/club introspective that I really couldn't care less about
See you in January
5 minutes ago, SzilardNemethsCurtains said:I am just basing it off apparently having big money to spend on Larsen, Henry, Greaves etc yet not having one bid accepted. Just makes you wonder. Even Forss and Hoppe took ages
Pure guesswork though, I have absolutely no idea
Is it January already? 😉

Sturridge is training at Rockliffe as we speak
Sturridge might be but I don't think Surridge is.

Four defenders on the bench, at home.

Wow what is going on? Clarke straight in the team but Muniz benched.
Don't mind the back three but he seems to be finding a place for certain players regardless.

Alas Smith and Jones is all we have on the right side of defence.

We can make 5 substitutions can't we?
Let's get back to basics in the 2nd half.

Or play our 2 new strikers in an attempt to score goals.
Sorry that's just too radical.

I wonder if the Mowatt signing paves the way for Boyd-Munce to go out on loan 🤔

It was quoted at the beginning of the article. It just wasn't in the longer quotes. As someone who certain admires pedantry, I'm not really sure what the issue is? Big names or marquee signings, it means the same thing. Maybe instead of trying to use it to have a pop at fellow fans people might want to think if we've had the transfer window that Wilder had expected? I'm bloody sure that we haven't, so if he isn't happy with it why should the fans be happy? We all know that window isn't closed yet, we all know that we are going to add players, and so does Wilder, and yet he's obviously not happy with it.
Who is having a pop at fellow fans? Those words are not quoted in the EG article so for all intents and purposes CW did not say those words.
I post infrequently here and tend to lurk hoping to pick up transfer information.
One thing I have learned is that some posters such as yourself seem to 'rule the roost' and what you say goes.
It's not healthy.

It probably is a quote from Wilder. It's just not quoted in those longer quotes there. It would be an odd thing for the Gazette to make up especially when Wilder does say big names in the longer quotes. Mind, you never know with the Gazette 🤷♂️
If I was a local a journalist and the manager definitely said 'marquee signing' I'd certainly quote it. But the EG journo didn't which leads me to think that CW didn't utter those words at all.

Backs what up? Where does Wilder actually use the phrase 'marquee signings'? It looks to me like that is an EG phrase now being used to hit Wilder with.
Erm, that's exactly what I'm saying. It's an EG quote, not one from CW.

“When we’re bringing players in there will be some big-name players in there that we hope and I believe we can attract to this football club.
“We had the well-publicised good cup run and we had the league campaign from where we were to where we got to and how close we were. It makes it a really attractive club to come and join. And it always has been with the facilities that it has got and the history it has. Hopefully we can pull some good players to this football club.
“There will be some big names that will come and people will go, ‘wow, that’s a really good signing’, and there’s going to be some other signings that you might call under the radar who we feel will make the group stronger. Liam [Roberts] is definitely one of those.
Those are the actual quotes the EG posted with the marquee signing article.
So I don't believe he used the word 'marquee' and in fairness if we sign him, Jørgen Strand Larsen is a pretty big name, 3 six letter words, bleeding heck.
And here's the Gazette article to back you up.

I like the look of Larsen a lot but I wouldn't blame the club for baulking at 12 million, especially when we have other positions to fill.
Not sure where the £12m valuation has come from. I've read elsewhere that they're after €10m.

I see what people are saying about just paying a bit more but Larsen seems steep to me and too big a gamble. Ok if we sign him and he takes off then it’s worth it but it’s a big IF. Also there is a team to jigsaw together. If paying 1 mil more means we can’t afford to get Greaves and a CM for example then is it worth it? or might there be other options out there for half the price of Larsen?.. all ifs and buts I know but it’s not as simple as let’s just meet the asking price.
Understand what you're saying there Riverside but I don't think the club ever considered our coffers would be swelled by upwards of £24m this summer.

Appreciate there's a gap in the two club's valuation of Larsen but longer term the player could have a very good resale value. You'd think we need to do a deal sharpish before another club nips in.

I agree that we probably are just waiting on offering Smith a deal so we can avoid paying him a few weeks wages.
Makes sense for a back up player, even though I disagree with the optics, but hopefully it doesn't *** off Smith too much.
I'm sure we done something similar with Duncan. Delayed signing him do we didn't need to pay him a month's wage or something like that.

Well he was played in the wrong position by Warnock, Marvin Johnson played ahead of him at right back at the end of his last season with us. Then shipped out on loan.
And if you've been on Twitter or on here at any point during djeds career here (save a couple of months when he first broke in) you'll see that he's been unfairly made a Scape goat very publicly for a long time.
Every player gets played out of position, or dropped, at some point in their career. That's not being treated badly.
And I don't categorise criticism on here or on twitter as evidence that he was treated badly by the club. That's just ridiculous.

Folk stating with some certainty that Spence was treated badly both by the club and Neil Warnock.
Is there any evidence to back this up?
