    All well and good if the last couple of lines are actually true. we will know soon enough if we actually bring in a signing in the next few days - preferably a winger

    I would imagine that's how the Woodrow deal came about.

    Alhough this is how transfer deals are usually carried out, didn't it say the PNE had met the contractual release clause? So in that case, the individual(s)responsible for the transfer dealings may just be playing catch up a little on this occasion...

    We don't play with wingers and if we intend to start then we need a minimum of 2 if not 3

    We need a replacement for Potts....one who is ready and not one who takes 6 months to bed in etc.
    We are going for promotion...let's get professional....if we are going to sell then let's have the replacement in now....I'm glad it's the cup this week tbh.....as the way I see it we are an integral member of our squad down and he needs replacing.......straight away.....not oh we have another 3 week s etc. ..no now.

    You are right, of course. But If it is to be believed that the release clause was activated, then we don't know exactly how much notice we were given regarding the move. For all we know, the club could have only found out about the proposed move a day or so ago, so they are on the back foot with finding a replacement.

    According to club statements from ages ago identifying players is a continuous cycle .
    We are aware and monitoring players continuously .

    No, I understand that and would assume it is the case for every club. What I was meaning, is more the fact that if the club knew Potts was leaving in, lets say November, they would have had over 8 weeks to work on the deal to bring in the replacement. If they only found out on Tuesday or Wednesday, they are starting from a cold start on the replacements deal.

    If they are continuously monitoring players then they will have identified (if they deem we need a replacement that is ) player/s to replace before saying yes imo

    Dont have one.

    Just going off what facts I do have and past experience.

    Potts has left and no ones been announced to replace him. The original post is how a proper football club is run, we dont operate like that we snatch off the hand of the first offer then scramble in the dark for a replacement.
