Think we can do better than Dallas but only time will tell ultimately.

All seems to have gone a bit quiet on the incoming front - thought another two were expected?

Listening and watching the clip of Adam interviewing the Manager he states nothing imminent.

Hmm wonder what happened to those 2 new signings who would run through a wall for us that he was talking about last time. Doesn't sound as bullish now

He never said they’d be bought in immediately

He said they were working on them which is still the case

This January window is unlike any other January windows IMO. Many clubs in league 2 have done business very early in the window and I include us in that. IIRC previous January windows have seen most clubs leaving it late to conclude deals. Maybe the two deals we are currently working on are going to be late window deals.

Poor window if we’ve only swapped Dallas for Pressley and Duru for Ecclestone in my opinion

I disagree. Pressley has played all his football at a higher level than Dallas has and has scored goals at a higher level than we currently play. Duru from all accounts is much better than league 2 and Blackburn supporters said they thought he should have gone to a league one side.

Charlie Caton going Accy

Whether there was any truth in the rumours earlier in the window or not it does feel like the sort of player we should have been looking at

Clubs with big FA Cup money Accrington, Morecambe & Harrogate will spend to keep up, Carlisle signing some quality players for league 2 and won`t be any where near the bottom 2 come the end of the season, we will just have to get on with it and start getting some wins, can`t go another 10/12 games with only 1 victory.

How much did we get from Chelsea game?
