Has anyone noticed that this year is like the previous one. Other teams make offers for players but we closely monitor or are watching until they are gone and then we scramble about for what’s left. Cheap loans. Frank obviously believed Levy when he said we would be involved in winning the premiership and the Champions League. Bet he wishes he’d stayed where he was. Nothing changes, a joke of a club.

That’s when you enter with the strategic lowball wage offer of 40k a week and a packet of quavers per each assist.
“We tried”.
Unsure what you mean by 'not this season' Levy has been effectively 'done' long before this season started and my reference to him feeling he may be given some respite for the trophy win is conjecture about how it sits in the figment of his imagination.
Agree it could get ugly or go quiet,the pendulum swing will be determined (as always) by results. One thing that will not change is the ownership (unless the price is right) because the person at the helm has the skin of a pachyderm.
If Ange had stayed Levy would have had to 'reward' him with a decent window at least. New boy Frank will politely mutter in the next few press conferences about 'the club working behind the scenes'.
In the last 4 windows the players we have bought over 21 years of age are Solanke, Danso and Kudus with Werner and Palhinha on loan.
8th? No wonder you are calledDoom_Spur
I'm thinking of a sticking a wedge on relegation at 100-1. Did it last year and got my stake back around 5 games before the end of the season so almost no risk and could have made a small profit at one point.
Trying to talk myself out of going too large.
I think there will be a solid 4 or 5 teams worse than us but thats besides the point.
4 competitions incoming and we're not equipped in numbers nor quality to have a go in even 1 of those.
We will probably buy a couple of players but they will be cheap or overpriced and not really improve us at all. We will then be told we've spent loads but its mostly all been wasted.
Yeah agree. Frank will be so grateful for doubling his salary and being given the chance to manage a bigger club, he's unlikely to rock any boats.
And which of those players would start in any of the top 6 clubs from last season's league placings?
Don’t bet myself. But, if you stuck £100 at 100-1 that is £10k should the worst happen.8th? No wonder you are called

Plus a possibly upside, for pressuring execs, it might half the odds after! As 100-1 is generous given that Sunderland are having a go and if they and/or another get it right and we stink again…
You could go see all our Championship away games with your money, as I think you retired (?), or a nice cruise or Warner Holidays!
Somethings definitely changed over the last 18 months or so
They've always been a bit shit at recruitment and have generally given off the impression that football isn't at the top of their priorities list but it's gotten much worse lately
They just don't seem to give a fuck , not a single one
What the hell is going on?

I think bald C knew the forest deal would fail and used it as a distraction....... im serious....
Yeah I wouldn't be at all surprised if the whole thing was planned out by both sides
Suits Levy doesn’t it? Doesn’t need to spend money but can do the we tried and blame big fat Marianakis.
We definitely seemingly didn’t try very hard if we couldn’t convince MGW to swap Forest for in the CL London based Tottenham.
I don't.
We've already got a few of them who don't live the life, don't need one more.
Not sure on the ins and outs of it all but we didn't exactly fight or do much to try make it happen did we?
I can only assume it's strategy , and awful one but a strategy nonetheless.
Technically we've paid a lot of money the last few years for young and very young players
