The last 3 months have been nothing short of a shambles, now down to the last 3 weeks of the window to turn things around. Don't know how anyone can defend him!!

They will not get people back in that stadium till we buy quality,Gus filled that place.it was feel good excitement with quality players that knew what they had too do and how too do it,we were probably spoiled in his time here but it was entertaining

Bloom is responsible, he holds the purse strings. Burke must be tearing his hair out trying to match what Bloom is willing to pay to agents and players who can get more elsewhere. We are not paying the going rate for top players gambling that's there will be some decent ones left at the end of the window who may agree to our lower wages/signing on fees. I just cannot get my head around why people blame Burke and Barber, it is Bloom who has given them their remit.
It is sad that with the infrastructure in place we are unable to field a team to compliment it to it's full. Yes I do know it's down to FFP and it's not my money.

Did you go to any games under Gus?

Gus was given a decent budget that we have not come close to matching since he failed to get us to the Premier League. Of course he had a better team than we have now. Gus too would have struggled with the budget since he left, probably why he couldn't wait to get out of the door.
With all that we've got going for us - stadium, training ground, big crowds - if we can't get decent players in and comply with FFP, I can't see how any club in the Championship can.

Even if there was that budget I don't think Oscar or Sami can attract the players we need,everything was Gus called me or we had a chat and I wanted too play for him,

Agree with that, and I'm certainly not going to look for someone to blame until the window shuts, and maybe not then. I have an inkling of the constraints the club is working under, that includes the whole team, TB, Burke, Barber everyone.

Very much this in my view, TB chooses the budgets DB can work with so the buck stops with TB.
Thought his job was to bring players in and no wonder we haven't when allegedly he's spent his entire time working on the academy. If he's spent so much time on the academy then who the **** has been working on bringing new players in?

To be fair, I don't think I've ever seen you post anything about football that didn't make me instantly think "f**k me this bloke is clueless"!
