HRK has gone to Swindon and Zesh Rahmann (who I identified some weeks back) has gone to Bradford from QPR.

FFS.... this is stupid :(
 
Surely we cant be expected to buy or loan everyone who comes available during this transfer period , just be patient im sure we will get someone before the window shuts :unsure:
 
If we were all scouts, it would seem southend would be in the premiership with the talent we would bring in! HRK is a bit of a bummer, he wouldve been great here again
 
Rehman was God awful when he played for QPR against us. I could hear the clown music playing in the background.

Swindon's other signing today, Gordon Greer would've been alright for us. A tall dominating centre half with good experience.

Do you know for certain that T&B wanted these players to come in this month? If they didn't, they're not "missed".

No not everyone of course, those 3 arent everyone are they?

I was just saying, those 3 should be the sort of players we are going in for. We know all about HRK and I'm sure we're told he wasn't available for loan.

Williamson we were after and you cannot blame him for going to Watford now, but did we take too long / not offer enough and Rachman is an excellent centre-half who would have improved us no end and is better than Bradford....

Missed opportunities to improve the squad in my opinion...

Still, heres to getting another 18 year old to stick on the wing before Feb 2nd. We should be ok if we keep getting the kids in...

Well knowing how the club likes to make last minute bids then most probably, and i do agree with what you said about Rachman seemed a very good player.
It is worrying the seemingly lack of ability to get in good solid experience when we need it, maybe we are all going to be shocked with some stunning signings in the next day or so!
 
In defence of what pboreham said it does seem very strange that Tilson and Ron didnt try and make HRK a certain loanee signing, would have given us some good options had we signed him.
 
Sorry, forgot Tilly could do no wrong!

Paul, surely it's time you changed this particular record. While you're entitled to have your opinion about Tilson's inevitable shortcomings, everyone else is entitled to their opinion too.

I agree that the Kaka comment above was ridiculous.




He loves it in Milan.

;)
 
HRK could not have signed because we've already had him for three months - the most you can sign someone on a short term deal.

We would only have got him on a long term deal and based on the fact he's joined Swindon for a month, a short deal is all reading want to let him out for, in case they need him, which ruled us out by league rules.
