I’ll only believe we are signing someone when he’s spotted at Elland Rd or officially announced. I’ll also only believe we aren’t signing anyone when the window shuts and nobody been announced because history tells us that no fucker knows nothing other than those involved. Smyth, Cross and others haven’t a clue hence the reason Hay leaving his cash cow. Pope knows as much as us and retweets other accounts or copies what they say.
They all prolly get their info from Waccoe. Still though, it's all part of the fun. Track a few random planes to LBA etc. Once you track you can't go back.
I got sucked into the TF and its full of freaks.
I can read but not post due to some prick tobias ? Best thing ever !

Beren Cross at Athletic saying we turned down £10m for Joseph from Betis at weekend.
We turned down a bid for X player. Straight at of the Bates playbook.
Crossed my mind. Soften the blow of no incomings. Though if so, pretty odd to be so specific in naming Betis as they'll probably be asked about it.

No mate. Think we’ll be fine unless we get some injuries in which case a lot on social media and waccoe will be chuffed with as they can then say told you so.

Obviously we would have liked a few new faces but my thinking is that from the position we are in, they would have to be premier league standard otherwise no point. I get that we may implode again but reality is we should have enough to get over the line. Over to the amazing promo expert Mr i’ve done it before Farke. No excuses now.

According to Selby white on Waccoe who is usually reliable, we are not very well in the financial department.

2 points per game from the remaining 16 fixtures will put us on 95 points. That would take ridiculous form for Sunderland and Burnley to catch us. With GD they'd need 2.4 points a game, which is way above their current avarages.
With the squad currently in good form and health, 2 points per game is very achievable, even with a few injuries along the way, though injuries to Piroe/Aaronson would be fucking typical after that window.
I can understand the frustration of fans that we haven't strengthened, but I think it's more due to historic fears rather than the current situation. If we fuck up the next month it will have had nothing to do with transfers, and a good month will put the finishing line in sight. Farke and the boys need to finish the job off.

I did see something last week about 49ers looking for more investors.
But you’d imagine it’ll be hell if we don’t go up.
