    Scrambling around for random loans now. Just an abject failure on every level.

    It was clear as we couldn't agree the Dolberg deal before Sunday that the only players coming in will be panic buys and loans. Don't expect any player that massively improves us. Looking forward to a season of turgid football ans probably cup final defeats. If we even make one.

    I don’t think we ever really had a chance at Dolberg tbh.

    It’s a player that clearly needed convincing to come. You’d need to go in with an offer so good that Anderlecht would be scared to accept another offer in case the player hesitated and we pulled out.

    So naturally we went in more than 50% below the asking price.

    We’ve only eventually giving the Swedish mob what they wanted because everything else has fallen through. They are probably in tears at having to give them an extra few thousand.

    It’s almost as if lowballing teams the entire summer and trying to finish the majority of your business in the last 24 hours is a brain dead and incompetent way to run a football club … but apparently our board know better than everyone who criticises them.

    Tunisian winger looks a goer now after being told this morning to * off after lowballing them again.

    Now just in the English loan market scrambling for any players who aren’t in their teams plans this season.
