Panic buying at the last minute because we haven't been able to get Dane Murphy's ideal targets?

Re: Xande Silva

Fucks sake it’s happened again, definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. It’s a constant kick in the gut Forest. I was so excited for Dane Murphy coming in and using some method to transfers and thoughtfulness. It’s now ended up with an Oly bomb squad signing and a signing from a Portuguese agent that’s never worked for us.

I hope they are both great and I look silly but the MO do these signings has never worked.

FFS, that looks like exactly the sort of agent driven shit our previous recruitments have been based on. This all looks like another one where DM has had no input.

Exactly and if not it’s one hell of a coincidence.

Undermining Dane already.

Damn can you talk to Murphy and get some signings in since it seems like you work for the f***ing club in some capacity? Care to provide some information on what’s happened today inside the club?

If you honestly believe this bloke was signed by Dane when he just happens to have the same agent as a few other lads signed by EM and co I have some magic beans to sell you, I’ll cover shipping to America don’t worry.

Or Dane was given him as a option and agreed to it, I don't see how that situation would be him being undermined. So was it Vrentos that signed everyone else in the window as well???????

Everything I'm seeing on here and on social media is doom mongering bullshit, I think everyone needs to take a f***ing break.

People are annoyed ‘cause we’ve watched the same shit happen year after year after year. If your happy with this signing, I’m glad but it looks like your on your own.

Re: Xande Silva

I can understand Dog's frustration at the sniping attacks (completely unfounded) at members of the club.

But for me Haych is also right; the expectation that we would have several signings of value (meaning quality, not financial outlay necessarily) in the final few days has fallen flat

I agree with our friend from the colonies.

I think a lot of people are a little over stimulated and could do with a warm drink and a bit of a sit down.

I heard the fee is only £200k, and he's still relatively young. Maybe he might turn out to be OK?

Can't say I'm excited about the signing, but if feels a bit like he's become a lightning rod for some people's anger at us missing out on Maja.

I think it's more what he represents in terms of who is perceived to be pulling the strings transfer wise

I think its more the fact that Maja at least seemed to score goals and play a bit of football - this lad does neither, better to buy nothing than buy what looks to all intents and purposes a ready made member of the bomb squad.

As a signing it makes us look like absolute fools with no plan - no idea and at this rate no hope

I've never seen the lad play, can't recall seeing any highlights of him either, but just wait until you see these..... *ahem*....."highlights". :LOL:

Genuinely laughed out loud at some of those finishes.

But - the lad does seem to have a turn of pace and quick feet too which the squad definitely lacks. Willing to give him a chance if he comes.
