Transfer window - one more gamble? 19:23 - Dec 26 with 2701 views | stuabd | We've spent loads, we've got players on big contracts and we've got a lot of players. Bottom of the table. Will Tony have one more gamble this season and give Harry a sizeable chunk to spend? I think it's a bad idea, but I think Tony will roll the dice again in a desperate attempt to get 17th place. | | | | |

Transfer window - one more gamble? on 19:32 - Dec 26 with 1872 views | EalingRanger | In the transfer market we are a bit like a drunken slapper off Eastenders at Christmas. Completely self-destructive, taking everyone down with us, not thinking straight - just wobbling all over the place trying to scream and shout our problems away. Tony put the chequebook away and except that we are down. | | | |

Like that's going to be easy. A 6 month deal might have some appeal for Anelka, or a 6 week deal for Keane. But, if you believe there is any chance of attracting the sort of player that will dig us out of this situation, on a 6 month deal, you're living in fantasy land. The best we can hope for is somebody who isn't getting a game at their own club and is prepared to take a gamble but also preapred to play in the Championship. And, if they're not getting a game at their current club, WHY? | |

from what I hear we are trying to persuade a high flying championship striker to come to us - so maybe not so stupid this time | | | |

Transfer window - one more gamble? on 19:45 - Dec 26 with 1818 views | Gloucs_R | No gamble for me. We are down, simple as. Sell as many as you can and start to put a team in place who will challenge for the Championship. I think this could be the starting XI next season Green Young / Onouha / Nelsen / Traore Mackie / Diakite / Faurlin / Hoillet DJ / AJ Cesar, Bosignwa, Mbia, Cisse, Tarbs, Zamora, Barton all gone | |

teams that do that aka Bolton , Wolves etc never come back up, its only those that retain the some premiership quality e.g West Ham, Newcastle that do. | | | |

No one said that it's going to be easy but we can't sit around and do nothing. Young and DJ will be back, at least those two will put a shift in. Maybe Samba will come on loan till the end of the season. Zamora will be back soon. Harry just needs to find some players that he trusts will give 100%. | | | |

So officials decisions have no bearing on a game? We had 17 shots to their 11 of which we had 5 on target to their 4 We had 14 corners to their 9 possession ? 50/50 The poor decisions robbed QPR imo | | | |

O.K. taking on board what you say; a) The second WBA goal was a foul on our GK and should have been chalked off, some people might disagree. b) We should have had a penalty late on again some people might disagree. Over the other 90 odd minutes of football I thought WBA were the better team. The stats are what they are and yes you could say that we've been robbed of a couple of decisions. This Is just my opinion mind but I don't think we are good enough to stay up, we're basically pissing in the wind and marking time. [Post edited 1 Jan 1970 1:00]

Transfer window - one more gamble? on 20:47 - Dec 26 with 1647 views | bosh67 | I think we just have to throw caution to the wind. There are 19 games left. As ever we still need to win half of them. I think after New Year we will see a very different team being fielded by Harry. I agree it's looking pretty grim with no points from the last two games but there is still half a season to go. It may be a job too far for Harry to keep us up but I think the least we deserve is to go to the wire fighting. We attacked Fulham from the starting whistle and it's the only time we've done so. I think we just have to get players like DJ back and just do our best, given our short comings, to batter teams from the start. It put Fulham off their stride, we could do it against a few others. Overall it looks more and more like Hughes sucked the life out of us. Harry's honeymoon has been more like a speed date but if anyone stands a chance of turning this around still, or at least getting us playing honourable football, it's him. | |

After the past two seasons I'd be happier challenging for the Championship every season. Top 6 in the Championship and the odd cup run or bottom 5 of the Prem every season? | |
