They'll get them in, or they won't, and it's not Woodgate's responsibility unless they choose not to come because of Boro's results. Link to post Share on other sites

He will get it in the neck regardless of his involvement, I can just see it now "we identified targets in August and still didn't sign them" ect Link to post Share on other sites
Denzel Zanzibar 6,931 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Well if we don't get them in January there's only one person to ultimately blame, and it ain't Woody. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 And if anything, that should come back to bite the people responsible. If we're that prepared for January (and given our intention to avoid spending a few weeks ago, you'd have to assume we are) then I think the expectations for January have gone up and indeed, that doesn't land on his shoulders. Though I also don't think Moose is far wrong in saying some will think it does. Link to post Share on other sites
thatoldchestnut 583 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 If we get to January and we are muddling along in mid table, then they wont spend money. Only if we are in danger of going down will they bring players in. Its as easy as that! Link to post Share on other sites

I think the club might be more likely to spend if we're somehow in the upper echelons of the division come January. If they think play-offs are a reasonable goal and we look good against teams around us, we add one or two more and push for it. I also think that's the only reason they'll keep our best players.
