    Just because they want something doesn't make it realistic or viable

    DKD was a pretty late arrival as well

    EVERY club wants this. Would you have been happy for us to get another Clem Rodrigues, Cosgrove, Josh Martin instead of Mcgoldrick, Vickers and Kelly if it meant us doing it before the season started?
    Why do people keep pretending its an easy thing to do? As if there isn't context and reasons behind everything. We can't do what Birmingham did and just chuck 30 million at it mate.

    We just have to be patient and see what happens.

    My expectation going into this window was that we'd be starting to rebalance the squad and look to reduce our huge losses. Though we've released a decent number, the loans out won't be getting fully recovered. Salaries will have ratcheted up, so wages for players we still have will be higher than 12 months prior. As yet, we've not generated a significant transfer fee.

    I suspect our players aren't getting the expected interest at a level we find acceptable. If that continues, Parekh will have to test how deep his pockets are again, because the losses will still be significant.
