January Transfer Window

[dixienormous]

It's no surprise that 'plaid dragon' fella coined the term 'frother'- We had good reason to be frothing and it was clear to me years ago where we were heading, just look at the players we've had since the WST took over.

"We have to wait until January, because as a Welsh Club playing in the English National League we are bound by the international transfer window (this does not apply to the England based National League clubs), and these rules mean we cannot make any permanent signings until the transfer window is open in January. As a matter of urgency, we plan to bring in loan additions who can help us in the short term."

Part of the reason we have no signings is that their is no money.The board has already spent Wards money £1 million. And the fans protest of not attending matches is starting to bite probably £250000 out of the projected budget. The board cannot admit money is low that would confirm mismanagement and failure. Expect some spin statements over the next week or two.. For the real fans however we just have to hope we can escape relegation. Then vote them out in the Summer

Plenty of money left in the kitty. Just hope any they give to Keates is limited as I've no hope that he'll spend it well.

IMO I don't think we have spent the money. I think its been banked for future off field developments (Training complex, maybe contributions to new stands etc).

We can't possibly have spent that money on Hughes' contracts, Flames on the wall and dug outs....

What's Dixie doing whilst Rome burns? He's a co-opted board member that is surely there in the director of football role?

Agree with QR and your assessment.

Our inability to attract new players prior to the Aldershot game contributed to that embarrassing performance and defeat. Keates and the Board have had a clear 2 weeks to ensure that oversight does not reoccur, but Woking are looming and there is no positive news as yet.

To throw away another 3 points at home would be criminal in our current plight.

We wait with baited breath for our saviours to show up pdq!
