Why do you need to sign high class player's? when your not going anywhere but mid table?

You don't need them you silly sheep!

Is that the same as your top 6 finish last season RFB

So none of our players then: as I thought

We can't afford Premier League players. Nobody in this league can without parachute payments, so we'll look to the lain market again to plug any gaps. Prem managers and players will be queuing up to play under Steve here so let's no panic about not replacing loanees yet. They're not going to blow their transfer budget on replacing a player they're still negotiating with to stay either, so let's worry about Bryson as and when the dust settles, if indeed he does go.

Same reason you released your Chilean defender, Jara then - who needs internationally recognised players, anyway?
Although I did notice he scored an own goal and missed the penalty that knocked his team out - clearly been learning from the very best at Forest

I never said they were our players, I said our team would be weaker without those three in it and I stand by that.

If Bryson were staying he'd have said by now though why he would go and plat for Burnley or QPR regardless of the division is beyond me. I could get more money working for another company but I'm reasonably happy here

Bushy:

If you honestly thought we'd be signing the likes of Thorne, Wisdom and Bamford on permanent deals this summer then I'm afraid you were always heading for disappointment.

We need to improve the core squad and then utilised the loan system again to supplement it: we can't do anything else without contravening FFP and risking all the hard work done on the finances so far.

Chill, Bru: long way to go yet

ffp is a crock of balls

No I never expected to sign Wisdom, dont want Bamford but expected to sign Thorne, all I did is state that the team could start the season weaker than it finished it which it most likely will

Im still calm yet and I am playing devils advocate a little

Well done Nigel for creating a solid core of players we can build a team around.

Glad you agree.
