We've never been anywhere near challenging PSR (or FFP) in the previous 15 years. We'd have needed to have been a club of ambition for that. I strongly suspected we'd have been starting this season without one of Bruno or Isak - probably the former given his release clause was confirmed.

Kid Dynamite 7025 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 I imagine we were after Madueke, Chiesa etc. originally so didn't push the boat out to include him in the Anderson deal. Bit off that we've decided this with a few hours to go though. In hindsight we should have just done the deal and saved ourselves an overpriced keeper we didn't need Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 44804 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 I'm now firmly of the opinion that Mitchell has had a stinker here. I'm not saying he's a bad DoF, or that the task he's been set isn't really hard, but moves like this Elanga thing shows we're basically flailing now, and that's pretty embarrassing to have got ourselves in this position hours before the window shuts. Parrish has probably strung us along - hurting us helps his team - but that's his prerogative and arguably his job. I don't think we'll be shopping at Crystal Palace again for a long time. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 17241 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Can anyone dig out the first post where @LongTimeAdmirer first said “close the thread, no further business will be done”?… it’s at least a fortnight ago Got to say I like her/him/them…showed brilliantly cynical youthful foresight when us experienced campaigners were sat here with bubbles coming out of our gobs 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 9761 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 We should have abandoned our pursuit of Guehi much earlier. That’s the main grievance I do have with our failed transfer business and does make us look foolish now with attempts coming far too late. ”Planning” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2311 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 It would be nice if Elanga is just a smokescreen, but you'd have to be bordering on psychotically optimistic to believe there's any chance of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego21 2135 Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Keith says that we asked them for Elanga and they asked for a specific player in return, but we didn't want it. And that was the end of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
