Im saying that we’ve had some awful windows over the last 6 years mainly by our own incompetence this one could be as bad or worse because the manager whatever one’s view of him is , is totally constrained by our fiscal predicament We must hope he's a manager who thrives in a back to the wall, shopping in the dogs home type environment, although I've seen little to suggest that he can provoke much in the way of positive change results-wise after previous transfer windows. We shall see soon. Unfortunately after the much discussed 'summer of 2022 is a chance for the manager to press the reset button on the squad' conversation, it becomes apparent there is no money to spend due to past profligacy. We’ve lost Allen , Vranic , Fletcher , Biddace, Sawyers , Surridege , Maje from last seasons forward players and goal scorers without replacement we could actually be in real danger if we don’t give a remarkable July recruitment wise

Scholes had a cheek saying he was leaving the club in a healthy position!

Was one bloke years ago who plucked a player out of thin air he didn't like then had a long rant that he was sure we'd sign him and how rubbish he was. It never happened of course and I think the poster in question is still medicated and being cared for

Great signing by Newcastle that one! Botman is a cracking centre back. He’ll be excellent alongside Robin if they can get him in😉 Joker

He’s a right back that plays for Man Utd. I think he was on loan at Norwich last season.

I think if it was from who we have fit now I’d go with:
Bursik
Clarke Jagielka Wilmot Tymon
Laurent Baker
Brown Powell DWP
Campbell

Where exactly did I say I was in the know ! i assume the manager is and he said we cant afford sawyers and or maje at the minute seems a reasonable outtake on that basis to say we are finding it difficult to recruit who we would like to , when we would like to due to severe financial constraint

And you think that losing the wages of Allen, Fletcher, Vrancic, Afobe, Smith and last year's loan players leaves us with no flexibility on wages. Don't take everything that MON says verbatim.

I was in a night club some years ago when Jermain Defoe walked in with his entourage. No more a do he walked straight up to the fittest bird in the place and said "Get your coat on you've pulled". The girl said "Ooh you're a little forward".
Nothing to do with the thread I just thought I'd try and lighten the mood a little. Can't do with all this fowin ayt. PS crap I know but it made me titter.

The problem is that we might have needed to lose all that without adding anymore just to stay on the right side of the law this season - there’s only so many times you can sell your stadium !! Truth of it is that none of us know - not even our friend in Bristol. It’s a ridiculous and convoluted situation that the EFL seem to think is for the good of their clubs.

He most certainly isn’t a right back,he’s the most prominently left footed left back you’re ever likely to see Isn’t he a right footed left back? Looks like I was wrong/you’re correct or though he prefers to play left back During an interview with The Athletic, the England U21 player said: "Kieran McKenna was the manager and I was a first-year scholar. One game, we had no left-back. I've always been right-back, left-back, centre-back from under-14s. He put me there and from then I've enjoyed it. "I can play either side, even centre-back. I always joke with the boys when I get to 33, 35, when my legs start going, I'm gonna move inside. Right now, I'm a bit young for that." On his favourite position, Williams added: "I get asked it all the time, it's so frustrating! Even the players here. I got asked yesterday. I've been here four months and you're only just asking me? Bali Mumba, we were doing crossing on the left. He was like; 'Do you prefer the left'? Yes. Which academy player will break through next? Have your say in the comments section below. "There is a massive difference. I feel comfortable on the left. On the right, I feel I'm limited in the stuff I can do. On the left, yeah, I might not have the top cross into the box that a left-footer has, but I have stuff they can't do. I like to use that, coming inside, playing one-twos. And my left foot is not bad, I can still use it."

Why the hell are you talking about Brandon Williams? Because the very nature of being a Stoke fan on this forum is to discuss footballing matters with your naturally imbedded over inflated sense of grandeur! And to profusely and continually drone on about how what we currently have is absolutely dire and just not good enough. We all know that the grass over there in our neighbour’s little terraced yard is so so much more iridescently Illuminating than our own!
