Quoted from arryarryarry


I have asked this question several times but I will ask it again..............how do we get rid of players on 2 year contracts that it is very unlikely anyone else will want to come in and buy them.

You say we need a left back and strikers but Slade has only a few months ago bought some in.

Are you suggesting he has bought crap players?

As for Clements and McAllister, I would doubt we will see them in the first team again.


Understand where you’re coming from but name me one manager that’s never made a crap signing?

You mean 5 first team players in the matter of a few weeks, that took some doing.

He had some assistance from Wilko though Arry - Hooper and Kelly both worked with him before so he had some idea of what we was getting.

I feel sorry for Cardwell to be honest - didn't do too bad pre-season yet doesn't seem to be given a sniff of the first team.

Just wandered as all the poster has done is quote Slade talking about how Luton's manager has had 5 transfer windows to build his squad. Then pointed out that Luton's manager has had 5 transfer windows (including this one) to build his team. Doesn't really seem like there's any point to the post.

I wasn't having a pop at his stutter, actually, I was having a pop at his constant indecision. Does he have a stutter?

I 'm honestly confused, I thought there were two transfer windows 9 June – 31 August     1 January – 31 January.
If Jones joined in Jan 2016 surely the most he could be claimed as having is 3, including this one.

And, again, for everyone who thought I was being mean, I honestly wasn't making a cheap remark about his stutter, because I didn't think (and still don't)  that it was a stutter, just what it sounds like when someone has no idea what they are going to say next.

Now, put your hand out in front of you and count on your fingers, how many is that?

You’ve done a great job of illustrating that Slade’s the thick one here. Well done.

I think it is clear that Slades realises he signed a load of players who aren't good enough in the summer, Slade and Wilko are supposed to be shrewd transfer operators so is this poor recruitment a one off or is it down to the fact that both of them are on a downward spiral and as such their "talent spitting" skills are not as they was. If it is the latter is don't hold any hope at all for the remainder of this month or in the summer
