Fleetwood looking to sign Marriott and (?!!) Stockley, Burton might be getting Stockton. Another 2 teams below us signing decent players.... Would have liked Marriott or Stockton .... both could potentially be good fits in our team....if not immediately then certainly by the Summer. Frustrating .... Come on JB please prove me wrong and show that you have it all in hand. Very impressed by Stockton on Saturday, doesn't say much but he had our defenders on toast!

Such an important match Sat after two disastrous performances,underwhelming window thus far and still no stadium news.We so need a lift and looking at MK Dons they are not a difficult opponent to beat it seems but I thought that about Accrington and Morecambe too.Remember when we were feeble once and beaten far too easily Max Ehmer publicly apologised.Didn't improve his effort though.The manager and Players must be hurting after recent displays so I am strangely both worried and nervous about our next game but believe we can bounce back.

Spoke with someone relatively in the know that Connor Taylor had a few loan options and it was being considered. But injury (and Souttar departure) may put pay to any move now anyway. His source is good, but also pushed the move to scotland in the summer story that never happened

Yes I was too .... also with their January additions Mellon and Crowley - just tore us apart.

Crowley was everywhere, always wanting the ball, little tody give and go's, positive runs and picking our pockets. Basically did everything our players didnt.

Especially with the window closing at 2300 tomorrow unless it is free agents Sam Frost sources must have dried up as well never seem to get any exclusives

Joey currently in danger of having a worse window than Paul Tisdale 🤣

We should maybe run a poll on his potential excuses.... Here is my 10.
1. Saw no value in the window 2. Prem Clubs wouldn't release due to their European and Domestic cup commitments 3. Only bringing in players that would improve the squad 4. Fierce competition from the bigger clubs and we couldn't compete 5. Everyone looking for a CB / DMC so no one available. 6. Shola Ameobi blocked my calls. 7. Sean Dyche blocked my calls. 8. Only want winners that will fit into Club way of thinking. 9. Didn't want to break the existing budget cap. 10.Eddy only works on Wednesdays so we missed the last two days of the window.

Would love to see how Fleetwood cheat FFP consistently.

When we played there once and drew 1-1,Jack Redshaw was the same.Buzzing all over the midfield and tore Tom Parkes apart.Scored with a perfectly aimed exocet from 20 yards.Great diminutive player the like of which we don't have.Is the Latvian available?

"Substantial" fees for both Marriott and Stockley.

Joey needs to stop wining and sign some players, if thats possible of course.

Quite a few players that have moved to clubs in League One that would have improved us IMHO. Ryan Bennett (to Cambridge), Todd Kane (to Charlton), Charlie McCann (to Forest Green), Brandon Cooper (to Forest Green), Harry Boyes (to Lincoln), Dynel Simeu (to Morecambe), Dan Crowley (to Morecambe), Nathanael Ogbeta (to Peterborough), Callum Wright (to Plymouth), Jonathan Leko (to MK Dons) and Demetri Mitchell (to Exeter). Problem is we're not playing fantasy football and have to persuade players to join us and also meet their contract demands. Not just pick a player and put him in our squad.

Can’t work out if this is supposed to be ironic or not?

Agreed its not easy as football manager but we should be a more attractive proposition than quite a few of the clubs mentioned. Ill add another, Joe White loaned to Exeter from Newcastle (how dare they!)

How long before some of these big spending small clubs go bust?
Really looking forward to seeing that happen

Anybody of the opinion that we won’t sign anybody before the window shuts it would not surprise me
