Chances are we will bring someone in. Worst case scenario we go with those 3 their is still no reason why we can't get in and around the play offs then bring someone in in January.

Anyone we bring in now loan wise can be whipped away after a month, not much use to us. And if the league is no good as some are saying then we should be challenging for the title, not trying to be in and around the top seven.

I think I’m just disappointed we’ve not got this sorted already. I think it’s absolutely crucial to hit the ground running if we are looking at going up. Long way to go and we could get someone in of course but bedding them into the team then making up for lost ground will be challenging, particularly if we are wanting automatic rather than playoffs.

Is it though, or do we just think it is because we’ve not seen a promotion in so long? I’m sure there must be tons of instances where teams have a slowish start (it’s not like we’re down the bottom) and go on to win promotion either play offs or automatically.

Of course they do but surely we should be maximising our chances, Micky and the squad won't be worried and nor should they but the better teams won't now be looking to supplement their teams with 1 month loans like we are, if we take someone now and they have an hot month they'll likely just get recalled. In a week when FG signed Quigely and Caldwell to complement a strike force that already contains Doidge amongst others I'd describe our efforts at bringing someone in as disappointing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we’re light too. I’d like to see Reid move on and someone else come in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't just the league that isn't any good, we aren't and I'd be overjoyed if we get anywhere near the play offs but winning it? No chance.

Strong possibility of this happening if WE can get back into the playoff places. The outcome would be discussed forevermore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half the forum is about speculating about stuff you dafty. Well clearly 9 hours is more than enough for your latest blinding insight. Speculation is fine, except that you weren't speculating, were you? You said "Smart clubs generally have more than one target lined up" - well, who knew. Clear implication that we are not smart, ergo another opportunity to moan about MM/the board/Latics in general with a new season still in its infancy. What a sad and miserable outlook you have. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
