    signed 8 players already this summer, someone must have forgot to let him know you can't sign good players until August, going about it all wrong that bloke, identifying who he wants then going out and getting them in time for first day of pre season, ha ha ha ha as if that's going to work, the blokes clueless.

    A lad released by Luton, A lad who was on loan at Telford, Martin Woods, and a bloke let go by Mansfield. You need to stop worrying and complaining about what players other clubs have signed and just be patient.

    That doesn't matter. At least they'll have a pre-season together. That's how you get promoted, bring in **** players early enough so they have a preseason together, that makes them good.

    Nah mate , that doesnt work BFC have triedc that in the past, but we now have got a better system of getting the players we already have back for pre-season, then signing a shitload the last two weks before the season starts and expecting them to come together as a team ! I``m telling you, it`s the future !! :p

    I'd rather we took our time than sign any old ***** like you want us to do. Just have some patience, we're still in June.

    We had no choice last season because of O' Grady, you know that, but doesn't fit your agenda.

    There have been no promises of early signings this summer. Signing the right players takes more time than just signing any old tripe.

    A load of ******, it was just a excuse for all the dilly dallying incompetence from our board caused by penny pinching. exactly same things happen this season as last season it took us three that's three bids and two months to get Conor Hourihane, and we're doing the exact same pissing about this season, two bids for a Barnet player, what the Fu'ck are we offering 3 sacks of coal, Jesus wept.

    You're completely right. I have no idea why we're just not immediately going in with large bids, we've got the money to spare. I'd much rather us sign players in June when they're still on holiday than wait until July and get them a bit cheaper.

    Start with a big offer and haggle the price down afterwards, that's how a competent board would negotiate.

    No I think best thing to do is put a offer in you no isn't high enough, then wait a month and do it again, instead of just thrashing it out nice and early, then when you've played a few friendlies and the season is days away and the selling club can see you're getting desperate pay what they wanted in the first place, it worked perfectly last season didn't it, I love seeing us have to dip on loan market for two or three in September, I think having to introduce 3 players into squad 6 games into season is a sure fire route to success me, this board know exactly how to succeed don't they

    Makes me laugh the posters who are experts at spending others people's money.

    Can't wait till we've signed a few...then the same whiney, moaning tw&ts can start their whingeing on the quality of said signings.

    Let's go into the new season full of negativity...that'll help the lads.
