We knew Dann and Jerome would be going. It looks like we've kept Zigic though who, if fit, could be a real assett in this league.
I think now the windows closed we need to sit back, relax and let Hughton work his magic. 10th or higher and we've had a decent season. Play offs would be great, automatic promotion....amazing. Lets just see what the future holds. Maybe Yeung will be cleared, we'll have some decent investment and spend a few quid in the January window. Until then we have a decent squad for this level to be fair.
GK - Myhill/Doyle
RB - Carr/Spector
CB - Davies/Caldwell/Ridgewell/Ibanez
LB - Ridgewell/Murphy
RM - Burke/Redmond/Elliott
CM - Fahey/N'Daw/Spector/Gomis/Mutch(when recovered)
LM - Beau/Valles
ST - Rooney/King/Zigic/Wood(?)
And youth players
Butland, Asante, Jervis, Deamon, Kerr, Hubbins and Hancox (who?)
Not to mention any free agents or loans that we could POSSIBLY go for. Carter, Beattie, Koumas, Zenden, Forssell? I'm sure a number of PL clubs will have players we can loan as well. Just need to wait for the squads to be announced.
Maybe were not as skint as people make out? I don't doubt there's problems with the finances but ridgewell was refused when asked to leave and bids for beau turned down, we didn't get rid of zigic. We don't have the best squad but I bet we play a lot better than last season and see a few goals for a change!
Looking at the squad we have I'd say we're only really in need of another CB, a CM and a goalscorer.
Wood is only here for a month, unless we extend it. Zigic won't be seen in a blues shirt again. So for me we need a striker on loan. I would also like us to pick up a few of the free agents still without a club. It is getting to the time now where they will have to lower their wage demands or they won't be playing football all season.
I trust CH and think he is a great manager, its the board I don't trust. Word I had in my ear last night is that Yueng will be gone ASAP. BIHL is being split up and is focusing on the housing market in HK, so will no longer have any interest in BCFC. If true brilliant news but I won't bank on it, until it is confirmed.
On the many blues supporters sites on Facebook they are saying Zigic's wages are covered by insurance payments while he is unfit to play.
I honestly don't know the score on that one but the suggestion is CY is happy to let him stew until the January window and then offload him.
I can't see it myself but if anyone knows any different
Yeah, Im also chuffed to bits with our squad and Im really sure Yeung will be investing huge amounts of money in us very soon
On a less positive note one or two injuries and we are well in the mire.
... if needed
Thats a good one !
On a more serious note, are we still allowed to take players on loan even though the transfer window is closed?
Is there a maximum of how many loan players a club can have?
The loan window opens again for FL clubs tomorrow (I think). We can have 6 loans and can play 5. (Again, I think)
