We're going to have to disagree on this. I think your view is tainted by your negativity. We were poor, Wednesday were worst. They had no ambition. Scored a freak goal and had no other shots on target, even against 10 men for a lot of the game. I'm not saying we were good yesterday. But to say...

They had an extra man and we were chasing the game. Fact is they had one chance all match and scored a very good goal but he could hit that 20 times and not score again (and they only got that because the very weak referee told them to take it from the right place and then let them get on with...

I take it you didn't watch our game then as we definitely weren't a country mile weaker than Sheffield Wednesday

Same idiot moaning on Twitter comparing Bloom to Archer. Pathetic.

I think today felt like the final straw. In fairness to the club, it is the Argus/people on here's fault for getting my hopes up. I know I shouldn't believe it until confirmed by the club but it really seemed positive. Now we may not even get Ward.

I don't know the ins and outs so no idea. All I'm trying to say is Burke can't spend money that isn't in the budget. The frustration is we've lost/sold/released 11 players this summer (making £8 million) and only signed 4 (paying about £1.5 million) yet we still can't compete with clubs who...

I'm pretty sure it's the latter. Tony Bloom seems to be above criticism (and he has every right to be for what he's done) but he sets the budgets and wage caps. He also signs off the transfers. Also, as said elsewhere, if Burke wasn't doing what he wanted, he'd get rid of him. Burke seems to be...

I completely agree with this. Burke is given a budget and works within it. Who genuinely think players sign for a club because of their director of football? Sami will be the one who makes the difference, if we can compete with other clubs on wages. The issue seems to be that we can't or won't...

I'd probably play Calderon at left back instead of Chicksen. Not sure if Crofts is fit and that's quite a defensive midfield three at home. Also, might play CMS in the front three instead of one of the front three. After all the talk of targets this week, that looks pretty uninspiring.

I'm not sure there'll be signs at the match, we need to get behind Hyypia and the team. It's not their fault what's happening. However, I do feel more frustrated with the club than I have in a long time. I understand FFP and have stood up for the club all summer and said they're waiting to get...

I don't think anyone's blaming Naylor for what's happened. Speaking personally, I blame him (and a little bit others on here too although they've not printed it on the back page of a newspaper) for getting my hopes up. I will be going into the Sheffield Wednesday game very frustrated on...

Do you know what's happened? You seemed pretty confident of all three the other day. It seems a bit odd that so many sources were suggesting we had a very good chance of all three yet Clayton has gone to Middlesbrough, we don't seem to have got close to getting Baldock and Ward is playing for...

It may not be that we can't compete with them financially. In fairness, if he's from the north and always played there, he might want to stay up in the north. Having said that, this week seemed to be really positive and we're now looking at Ward at most this week from the sound of it (and...

Assuming these transfers don't happen, I agree with your post. Naylor and people on here claiming to be in the know have done the club no favours as expectations have risen. Now, if we only sign none (or even if we get Ward only), the mood will be pretty bad both tonight at the fans forum and at...

And yet you don't learn how wrong you are. Voted second best in our player of the season vote last year (with the winner having left now) and you wouldn't be happy if he's signs for us. The fact that you think he's only "just about" better than Chicksen shows how little clue you have.

Agree. The money that Bristol City seem to want is well over what I'd value him. Once Ward is signed though, I will relax a bit as he covers the position we are most weak in.

I don't understand the anti Greer sentiment from a lot on here. I know he's not perfect but we've had the best defence/second best defence in the Championship in the last two seasons and he has played most matches. That seems quite a leap to having zero confidence in him.

Encouraging that we're picking up young players from big Premier League clubs. This has to be the future for us until we start producing similar quality out of our academy. Bridcutt pays for an awful lot of failed young players with the money we got from Sunderland.

Great news if true about Ward. Really hope we can get at least one more in by the weekend and then a couple more before the end of August (obviously ideally three or four in by the weekend but sounds like it's not that likely now).

What an odd comment. Just a bit confused as it wasn't a controversial post. You're a bit weird, aren't you?
