January Window - Rumours, Ins and Outs

[Irchy cob]

Wasn't there someone at the Trust meeting that leaked that the club needed to save £100k a month?
If that is true why on earth hasn't there been communication from the Trust to the fans?

I honestly don’t know but I think it’s fair to say that all communication (the club, trust, council, media) is practically nonexistent and when there is something released it is self serving and opaque. I know I’m living in fantasy land but what we need is complete honesty and transparency from all sides and at least then we would know where we are and can start pulling together - at the moment we are like the titanic drifting towards the iceberg.

Fully agree.

My, my what a bunch of pesimistic, negative, conspiracy theorists some of us are. So many points.of view with so little actual evidence to back it all up. Oh a yes I know this is a transfer rumour page but on looking at it my word its far from that. Please stick to the thread topic and if your gonna say something do so with evidence to back it up. So anyone got any actual transfer rumours?

Add to that the hindsight experts.

Surley the time for posative coordinated  action is drawing near. We all know what happen last time nobody did anything!

Is there any movement from the trust on this?

How do you know they weren't all saying it at the time?

There is a miasma of despair about the place.

In the absence of any clarity or honesty from the club there is far too much smoke to ignore.

This may only be the start......

IF, and it's a very very big IF, you believe some random bloke on Facebook....KC has called a press conference for 9am.

Most likely utter bollocks.

Where did you see that if you don’t mind me asking?

Have a look at the random blokes Facebook profile. It says everything. Especially the words, complete and utter bollocks.

I did see that.

Agree on seeing said blokes profile picture. However one thing I would say is Curle has already left one job because of promises not being kept and not being able to bring in what he wanted. If KT is doing similar why would it be any different here?

Another point of view is that perhaps we have used the last few transfer windows for the sake of it to bring in players that are no better than the ones we currently have. Bringing players who are a significant improvement on our current squad would make a refreshing change? Of course the problem with that is that it also aligns itself with the theory that the chairman is cashing in and the financial cupboard is bare. I don’t know which is true, possibly a bit of both? What I do know is the last thing we need at the moment is another lazy @rse journey man through the doors who brings nothing but disappointment. Therefore the current position could be viewed as encouraging, if and only if it is for the right reasons?

[Welly Cobb]

Only way we know is on Feb 1st, I think.

Are the hoardes of press gathering in the Executive lounge yet?

What worries me is the fact you let two top players go without lining up replacements.
Now people can spin a line about we are probably after replacements but surely if you are losing your leading scorer and creative midfielder most clubs have a player tied down ready to come in before your own players are sold on.
We hadn’t.
Rightly or wrongly given this situation you could come to the conclusion that we were desperate to unload them.

[GrangeParkCobbler]

When you have one regular established central midfielder (O’Toole) out injured would you let the other established midfielder (Crooks) go out of choice?

If so, then you’d have to question the logic of the manager.
