    Yes but at least this time we’re looking to get bugger all business done early rather than in the last 5 mins of the window

    The ‘we’re not in any rush to make signings’ comment rings alarm bells to me. Honestly thought we’d be busting a gut to bring a striker in as early as possible and give Duff the options he deserves.
    Won’t be a surprise if it all goes down to the last day yet again. Hopefully not…..we’ll see.

    That's just Manager Speak to me. If Duff broadcasts to everyone that were desperate, then the price on everything goes up.

    I'm confident he knows.

    That's not how I interpreted it at all. More like that we're only going to sign people who actually improve the squad, and we're not going to be held to ransom.

    I'm never massively hopeful in January. notoriously hard to bring players in. no point just bringing numbers in. they have to add quality. how many strikers are out there, that are a) available, b) within budget, c) better than what we already have and d) not being courted by someone 'bigger' than us?

    I can't imagine at all, that we'll bring a 'proven' striker in. probably looking at lower/non-league or champ loan
