Ed do you thinks that's us or is there anything else in the making?

{Ed007's Note - Well a press conference has been arranged so it looks like that could be it on the incomings unless Pedro has something up his sleeve. Aidan Nesbitt has been made available for loan with Partick Thistle looking the favourites and that's Ciftci away to Eskisehirspor - what a great £1.5 million buy he worked out to be!}

I think it's a disgrace that we've taken on Roberts and sent Nesbitt out on loan. That'll probably hinder Christie as well. Kazim-Richards tbh I did say could be decent if managed well although I never knew the half of what people have been saying about his previous antics. I just thought he was a bit of a big headed, strop throwing type in a similar mould to Griffiths just getting caught up in daft stuff. I'm very disappointed even though by all accounts we've got a very good player in Roberts.

Total agree ed. was sayn earler how many duds have we wasted 1.5 - 2m on. how much wages have we spunked over the last few years.

Then we walk away from genuine potential over a few hundred grand or 1m.

{Ed007's Note - Pukki, Balde, Bangura, Boeriggter, Scepovic and now Ciftci, we've spent millions on dross. Is this latest diddy any better - not a hope in hell.}

Dont post much but on this site a lot ed. but i don't think iv heard yourself as pist off as i hear you tnite lol but i feel your pain mate could this club fall any further?

The media will tell us its because of rangers and no competition ect. but this downfall is all about celtic and wat they have or haven't done!

Hope you ok mate.

{Ed007's Note - I'm scunnered mate, absolutely scunnered. I had high hopes in this window getting Sviatchenko in quite early, Stokes out early(ish) - was even happy that Roberts is an 18 month loan - and yet it's the last hours of the window and here we are signing dregs that nobody else wanted.}

It's good that our supporters actually support a new player and help to build his confidence, especially before he kicks a ball for us . Don't let our dislike of R D and PL get in the way of welcoming new players to the club . We need them to do well for us and we as good supporters can help.

Ed, we've always wasted money on dud strikers (Fortune, Cascarino, Camara, to name a few) . I think we've had more bad than good in my time of watching the team. We should have someone like Sutton as a scout as he would know what to look out for.

{Ed007's Note - Nothing even to do with the scouting, add up the money and anyone with a half decent knowledge of the game could have came up with at least one quality striker.
It's just a hypothetical example but remember how the Rhodes deal was set up that if Huddersfield were to get the whole £8.5 million Blackburn had to get promoted and stay in the EPL for a season as long as Rhodes was there, it depended on goals scored and international caps etc etc. We could have paid the whole fee with what we've wasted. We could have structured the deal for winning trophies, European qualification. I don't know how much Blackburn eventually paid for Rhodes but it was nowhere near £8.5 million - and remember that transfer fees are paid over the duration of the contract or until the player is sold.}
