Toussaint

Will you be there Nick? I think it could get feisty there.

Sue, just so you know, I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about.

Docklands derby?

I think it’s due to the current wave of optimism, it’s nice to sea the tide turning in that direction.

Three stars? What is the scale 1-50 stars?

7 for me, that’s assuming the new signings are what we hope they are. I’m yet to be convinced Bazunu has improved since his last stint.

Somewhere between 1 and 10. Not a flipping clue. The only player I’d heard of was Fellows. I’ve been so hopelessly overly optimistic in previous windows that this time I shall reserve judgement until Christmas.

Aribo is in fact Nigerian for a turkey. Eg, we are having Aribo for Christmas dinner this year.

Moan about who we’ve signed, who haven’t signed and Stephens and Manning?

If you have a pet bunny rabbit I’d suggest getting it to a safe haven

I don’t know what sexual deviancy has to do with the transfer winnow?

Wish we were Paris fc (who I’d never heard of until yesterday)

Unless we loan one out?

I thought that would happen , too much pride at stake to “trust the process“ on this occasion

If he’s unwell then he has my sympathy, if he’s had a poor start then I’m not interested. This just Fabrice trying to point out the “injustice” aimed at Martin

I agree with most of what you said, but a lot of fans, myself included, didn’t see him as a premier league player. I think that’s exactly where he sees himself which maybe part of his problem. I’m assuming there is a problem and not a series of unrelated events that lay behind the perception of his unreliability and lack of commitment?

No, not even slightly interested as it happens

Not really.

No uncertainty over fickle Fanny sick note Flynn as presumably he’ll be getting cuddle time and rest days from Russel if he survives tomorrow

Conversely there were a lot of posters who thought we’d walk this league, by virtue of being in the premier league last season. Albeit being the second worst team ever, on points at least, probably actually the worst aside from that. I do agree with you though, I saw us as mid table mudlers. I don’t know who any of the new players are, so don’t know if they will have the required impact, I guess we’ll find out. It seems a lot of other teams are far better prepared for this league than us.

So do I , we won’t hear the end of it if we lose to the skates

Taylor is very useful, definitely worth keeping around

I don’t think it would have made much difference, both Ralph and Ralphball had had their day.

I think Fernandes did all he could, he was probably our most consistent player last season and always put a shift in. He goes with my blessing for what it’s worth. I don’t have any strong feelings about Dibling leaving, except to say he was overused and rushed back from injury. its such a short career I don’t blame anyone capable of playing at a higher level wanting to do so.

I’ve lost track a bit, but there were a couple of others who went for reasonable money, as you suggest, some still to go. I’m sure someone will tally it all up and post here at some points. It feels as though we are finally being run by capable and competent people for the first time in a long time. I include Still in that, I wasn’t keen, but I’ve been really impressed by his intelligence and demeanour.
