Obika, Rodriguez and Stephens...

[Neecha]

I know we may have expected more but my view now is cast your mind back to who we were signing 5 years ago.

What are your thoughts?

Still time to go...

Obika and Stephens are signings that could've been made when we were in League One. Such a shame watching clubs like Doncaster and Barnsley sign Sharp and Frimpong yet them two players would be good signings for a club like us.

Doesn't exactly get you running to the club shop, shirt in hand to have the name printed on the back does it Stephens seems a solid enough signing, Rodney could be anything and Obika, well the jury is still out on that one...

Team five years ago after a 4-2 home defeat to Peterborough.

Sullivan, Hinshelwood, McNulty, Virgo, Elphick (Fraser 86), El-Abd, Jarrett (McLeod 89), Carole (Cox 77), Forster, Davies, Andrew.
Subs Not Used: Kuipers, Livermore.

Cant understand why we weren't in for Frimpong.

Palacios would be good, but unlikely. Crofts injury meant we had to get a midfielder so Stephens is welcome.

But other than that, quite underwhelmed.......

Perhaps new Spanish Dave will be a gem.......

Frimpong is a fruit cake trust me no good. Will be more trouble than he is worth aka Razak!

 

[Bra]

Not sure I get the argument about look where we were. Yes we have come a long way but should that stop you hoping for more. For me we have gone backwards in the window. As you say Obika is a back up at best and the new striker, well it is a guess to how well he will settle. Stephens is okay but we have lost crofts and bridcutt from that area and are a central defensive injury or suspension away from relying on dunk who has a long way to go to recapture his form of two years ago.

Ok, don't know him so will go with your assessment.

Still would like a marquee signing. The Middlesboro winger perhaps.....

Certainly not the end of the world though

Sharp hates the South and Frimpong is one of the most overrated players in recent times. The fact he signed for Barnsley says it all.

I hate threads like this. We have moved on so what is the point in looking back? Do Swansea and Hull fans keep referring to there old days when they were at the Vetch and Boothferry park?

Most Albion fans appreciate our past and troubles but i expect most now just want to move with the times.

This window has been a let down(to date). It's that simple.

Of course, we cant keep banging on about the past.

BUT, the bedwetting on here about not spending money and saying that our season is over, no ambition etc is just pathetic.

 

[albion534]

People need to stop living in the past, it's getting boring

With regards to Frimpong, there's a reason Barnsley are the only team in for him, why not Forest? Leeds? Reading? Because he's a nut job who isn't worth the hassle

Same with Sharp, there's a reason they go to the lower end

Almost as pathetic as churning out the wanky 'bedwetters' phrase when anyone dares suggest the windows has been a let down?

Wrong, Albert was signed 10 years ago. Jason was signed 5 years ago.

The "wanky" fickleness of our fans is even more pathetic. 1 day "Were going to make the play-offs". Next day "Our season is over and the club is joke".

Just because QPR, Forest, Bournemuff etc are throwing away money - why should we ?

 

[dougdeep]

I wasn't disagreeing with you, I was just remembering the man mountain from the past.

Well clearly it isn't that simple because I don't feel let down at all
