I must admit I’ve gone from not being concerned whatsoever to a mild worry. Forino, Wheeler and Vokes all not training on grass in any of the videos on wanderers TV is very concerning. I wouldn’t normally worry but in one of the clips where they are interviewing Blooms the remaining players look like they’re all doing a bleep test together… seems odd for those 3 to be missing unless they’re not training
I'm not interested in his nonsense notions about going for automatics.... but I'm interested to hear his take on how much money is being made available to blooms for this upcoming season?
GA said funds were available but he wasn't prepared to pay out for what is being offered.
Matty I hope... takes the dollar.... and uses it to put his own mark and ideas into our team and is given every chance to succeed.
We are still being touted by the betting shop bastards to be pushing for playoffs so I hope we have a bit of sway against teams looking likely to be lower than midtable
How many passed us over? Come start of the season with no contract. High press, move the ball quickly and get it to the big man? Yes gaffer...where do I sign?
I’m clinging on to a hope that half a dozen championship quality players burst from a giant cake at the launch party. And then we’ll all be on the grass with them.
Starting pre season with no new players is unusual I must admit. But getting in the wrong players for the sake of it is a worse decision. Every day I share others frustration when team x signs player y and I think ‘we should have had him’. And then I see a newly released youngster on trial at one of our competitors and wonder have we got similar at Marlow Road this morning. I’m keeping the faith and hope we have learnt the lessons from last season. As for the launch party being the big reveal day. I’m preparing myself for 3pm fireworks.
We are all disappointed with the lack of signings, but let's look on the brightside we could be a Leeds, no manager, no signings and the majority of last year's team looking to move due to a relagation clause
Who knows, there might not be as many signings as we think. Blooms might have decided that Ward, Young, Pattenden and Woodhouse are ready for the step up !?
Also, forgot that other lad we signed up, Skura ? He's a center back isn't he, seemed highly thought of at the time
As well as the mysterious 40, a chap appears on one of the videos looking like a prime Peter Taylor signing. I don’t think any of the current squad have short red hair?
The red head lad announced he joined us last season from Eastleigh but Wycombe never formally acknowledged it. He warms the keepers up before some games but we have a goalkeeper coach so lord knows what his role at the club is. Not a player

How many times did GA say a few are very close...... then fuck all came of it
It's alright - only five-and-a-half weeks until the start of the season!

I kinda wanna see an update interview from RC...

It does look like Vokesy really got stuck into his dinners over the last month or so
Clearly we'll fill the gaps, but there's no denying we'll be a less attractive proposition to players than we were under Gaz.

Are we though? GA had a stigma of being a hoofball merchant and have an antifootball style.
We were known only for good progression of youth
We don't yet know blooms' style of play.. what he is touting may be a better option to some that would have passed up playing under Gaz??
“On the pull” Taff in Revs
”On the way” F-J driving to Shepards Bush
”On his high horse” Rob getting pi$$ed off with fan cynicism

For a man who likes to over hype every tiny detail, the lack of incoming players or anything to enthuse supporters is a strange policy by Bobby C.
On the other team's books still.
All our transfer targets .

A group of blokes trapped in a confined space, hoping the silence will be broken by good news but fearful.
A recent news story and...this thread.
A really unfortunate, inappropriate and inaccurate analogy @Kim_il_Swan
Yes!!

At the moment we have a bare 12 players in the first team squad.
Max
Grimmer, McCarthy, Taf, Forino, JJ
McCleary, Scowen, Wheeler, Hanlan, De Barr, Vokes
Everyone else is strictly development.
Without any doubt we need a minimum of 3 senior squad signings don't we?
We're doing alright, we aren't even bottom of the league at this stage for the first time in a while.
Don't forget Mellor, 😁
Oh yeah I agree with you. But was just wondering if that might be Matts thoughts
Ah yes good point.
A strange signing that is very easy to categorise as a development guy.
As well as the mysterious 40, a chap appears on one of the videos looking like a prime Peter Taylor signing. I don’t think any of the current squad have short red hair?
That's the kid from the U WOT M8 meme

At least bare players have plenty of skin in the game.
Alfie May going to Gillingham. GILLINGHAM.
What’s going on with that? I can’t see them being an attractive option or a high-wage paying club.
