Summer Transfer Window

Smokescreen for someone bigger maybe.

Peter Crouch?

Well, we were interested enough to offer several million for him, possibly twice. Does that count?

Indy says (a) we didn’t offer several million for him, not even close, and (b) we only went in with one offer. So on the whole I’d say no, it doesn’t.

fair enough

fair enough

It’s all confirmation bias, of course. I like what Keith et al are saying about how well our club is being managed so I prefer to believe it is true. Others think Alan Nixon et al are on the mark when they describe the club scrambling for players and throwing stupid bids around like confetti.
We could drill down a layer and discuss who has proved to be right on the most occasions and therefore has the better sources, what their motivations might be etc etc, but really I suspect that wouldn’t change a lot.

Get a new striker in and we could be in business (and LB cover for Tymon).

It sounds like we will at least be getting a striker and another loan. If Tymon gets injured we're pretty screwed.
