Jareth Posted August 9, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2016 From the last hour of the transfer window one glum January when we were alerted to the lights still being on and then got presented with the loan of Simon Dawkins (think that was his name) - to super Tony Xia tweeting with weeks to spare of the window about the upcoming exciting signing of a midfielder - what a welcome difference. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaglint Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Interesting phrasing though... very exciting. Morrison is a big risk and one I do think we should take but he is not exactly a very exciting signing. McCormack was a proven player at this level which to me was much more exciting. I guess if your the owner though any new signing is very exciting when communicating directly to fans. Edited August 9, 2016 by villaglint Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is he was reading the thread from the other day and he meant to type very eggciting. He was just getting in on the act 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garvey13 Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Would be very surprised if Barry came back to us but stranger things have happened. Guessing its a link up player between Mid and Strikers would so love us to get a big combative guy too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dounavilla Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Anyone else have it in mind that the great Dr may want to make a marquee signing ? The fact he used the word excited might just mean one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted August 9, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2016 Sanchez out, new midfielder in. Whilst I don't think we need to sell to buy for financial reasons, it certainly seems that's the case with keeping the squad a certain size. (That isn't a criticism, think it's quite sensible, maybe the delay with signing another striker is waiting for Gabby to leave? ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted August 9, 2016 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2016 Saw an interesting shout on Twitter, how would you feel about Mulumbu? Certainly wouldn't be exciting, and I've not seen him play for ages, but I remember him being alright. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
