    Traore still stealing a wage which includes a extention, Green still picking up 2.8 million a year, Hall is a success,Smithies has just got into the team,Luongo has hardly played and Polter is doing well at the moment so this season there are 2 that have worked out.

Wouldn't usually devolve myself to this level but I'm in too good a mood to let you ruin it so here are a few good things the club has done this season: Written off 160mil of debt, brought in a young and fairly experienced manager, shown we are no pushovers in the transfer windows any more, signed some really interesting players, signed grant hall to a new contract when he started performing fantastically, stopped rob green from extending.
      As for the Charlie incident, isn't it interesting how it took two hours in total for it to go from starting as a rumour on mainstream media (not including ITK's on here who got it earlier this week) to actually happening? That's how transfers should be done, not constant speculation. JFH's comments just made sure that no one was speculating. Take a day off mate, if you were any more negative your colours would be inverted.
      Read the opening line about idiotic, and switched off, we all have opions, not all happy clappers coz we won against team worst than us

          Maybe if you'd continue reading the first line, you'd realise that there was a lot more to it. Not everything can go right all the time but just as many complain about what goes wrong, we also have to praise what is done right.

            No the club are doing anything but good, Fernandes and sport do not go together just look at Caterham F1 team. Shambles from top to bottom and at least the last board seemed to have a plan. Anyone on here feel like they know what this board's plan is?

                  Why should they get praise, for making the same mistakes every year, always relied on one striker, now that job falls to polter, we never seem to get it right.
                  My main problem is ferdinand signing mates.

                    So Luongo, Hall, Smithies are all problems to you?

                      How much money has this board wasted on paying players who were at best bit part players since they took over? 20-30 million?

                        I said strikers, considering les and jfh were strikers, you would think they could see what is needed.
                        What about gladwin, bought and sent straight out on loan, to then be recalled.

                          And then be sent out on loan again. What about all the teams who do that? And if you mean strikers, then they've signed two strikers since Les has been here: One of those has 3 in 4 and is looking to develop his confidence and the other has scored a few in the time he's started. I don't think they have done badly with regards to actual signings they've made, but perhaps you think the volume is limited.

                            We are very limited, couple of injuries to main squad could kill off the season.
                            Also not many teams roll over as easy as rotherham so still need for bringing more players in.

                                What do you mean had a chance, how long has the window been open, plenty of time.
                                Surely they had targets before the window opened.
