So we don't get a new player? So what?!?! We have an immense squad as it is. Yes it would be nice to have a specialist left-sided midfielder, but not every team is perfect! I'd rather stick with the same squad we have, give Jamie Smith some more game time on the left maybe, and then perhaps bring someone in in January which is only two months away ffs, if it doesn't work out with Smith or one of the others missing from Tuesday's match (Bridcutt, Sparrow), or if we have an injury, then yes, we might feel aggrieved at not having a new player in after that window, but as far as I can tell, we are going to be a bloody good team even without a new signing.

That being said, it isn't 5 yet :)

Gus didn't say we WOULD get him though, he said there's one they're working on and if they get him it will be special, or something like that. Which implied that there's a good chance it won't happen, and it looks like it hasn't, it's not a surprise. He can't help it if some of our supporters don't actually read what he says, just one word and then take it out of context.

Gus says something, doesn't happen, fans moan
Club say nothing, nothing happens, fans moan

They cannot win

Why is it always a last minute Harry thing with these transfers, is there some unwritten rule that says you have to wait until the 11th hour to make the signing? :rolleyes:

I always used to think it was DK refusing to pay the going rate which meant it went so late or didn't happen, but it still happens so I guess I may owe Dick an apology.

I would say it's not that at all. Just players/agents waiting to the very last minute to see if a better offer comes in.

Very dis-appointing news that the Special signing is not going to happen,Gus seemed confident of strengthening the squad and it now looks as if cash is not available, in fact we cannot afford not to spend for the right player because if results do go down then attendances will suffer, costing the club a large amount of money.
