My point was we shouldn't be getting to the last day of a transfer window still needing to sign three/four players. Because if they do decide to go elsewhere, we don't have the time to find a replacement.Was that because in some cases players had agreed to join us and then went elsewhere pretty much within hours of window closing?
Correct me if i'm wrong but was Thorniley not staying until pretty much last minute? (relatively speaking )
Whatever we all knew was needed, when he changed formation (often was accused he lacked) and we were getting results the likes of Sykes etc were getting thought of as having found a natural position for him. The only time it get's brought out with the washing is after losing a game along with a lot of over reaction stuff.
"That" Blackpool game keeps getting brought up at such times but again we've been sat top 6 most of the season and as our manager rightly stated, our opponents have had 3 shots in 2 games none of which would be spoken about had we taken our chances.
Interesting that I was making a more general point about the last few transfer windows and you seem to only mention the last one, trying to make it seem like this was an isolated occurrence.
