At least there's no Lockyer bid.

That picture of the pitch is fake. It's too green.

I'm sure SH is a competent chairperson, but some of his wording really drains confidence in him. How about instead of thinks he said:
"We are working hard on a couple of potential replacements for Ellis and hope to have one over the line by the time we play Peterborough"

only 1 or 2 replacements, only bringing in one striker then?

I don't see the problem. Firstly, we don't know when yet so what is he supposed to say? Definitely then look an idiot again like the infamous land lights embarrassment.
Secondly, I am not too fussed about us getting a replacement in time for Peterborough as it is a game I would take a point anyway. If we haven't got a sufficient replacement bu Thurs 9th though then I will be concerned.

I was fully expecting the content of the first post to be "...with forked tongue."
And to be fair the following posts do contain varying levels of incredulity and skepticism! But he has a right to think that as the club has hired a head of recruitment then replacing the loss of one of the better players in the squad outright would be being undertaken so he's just voiced what the rest of us are hoping!

He gets loads of unwarranted sh** , I think it’s bang out of order to be honest. The guy is easily accessible via email and always has time to reply to any questions, as he has done with myself in the past. But hey much easier to slag him off on here !

Think that's our lot. i fear for survival if we go into the season with only 2 strikers, one that couldn't buy a goal last season and another that has only played in Scotland 2nd or 3rd tier. With that said i hope Nichols and find some form and i am excited to see OReilly.

How about instead of thinks he said: "We are working hard on a couple of potential replacements for Ellis and hope to have one over the line by the time we play Peterborough" Isn't that virtually what he did say anyway? The fact we've had no bids for Locks is what we want to hear more than we're trying to sign two strikers before the Posh game, which is fairly obvious.

To be fair, we're in the same position as last season when we had just Gaffney (who struggled to find the back of the net) and Harrison (who never, really set the World alight). We'll see I guess.
