Pardew is a certain Loan-er!!!

Another week has passed and still no sign of any signings (I'm not counting the possibility of Darren Powell on a short term deal!!!).

Talk of a player from Brighton??? Where are they exactly!!! Pardew cannot seem to attract any players to the club which only adds to the belief that his time at the helm needs to come to an end for the good of our club.

If we cannot even get a player from a Premier League team who cannot get match time in that division and we don't even seem to be able to deal with sides in the fizzy cola league, what is going on.

I appreciate the idea as not to sign just anybody for the sake of it but surely Pardew was looking before he announced the possibility of loan deals. It is interesting to guess as to what positions he intends bringing players in.

He is contemplating send McLeod out on loan, then you could think a quality striker may be in order, (just for SDAP I will mention the signing on Jonatan Johansson by Hibernian when the transfer window opens) but who are likely candidates??? I am really at a loss and part of me thinks that if he fell on his sword (which is not gonna happen) then a new manager may get more out of the players who are under performing.

Lets get real and practically say that if we don't get it right now then our season is over. If we start firing then the play offs are an outside bet but it needs people to step up. The main focus here is to play a consistent team and include Hudson, Semedo and Gray as the spine. Moutaouakil and Basey are the long term best bets at full back (possibly Ian Harte? Not sure there). Sam and Bouazza if the fulfill their potential can be devastating and Gray will get goals if the performances improve. If most players showed the commitment of Hudson, Holland and Varney then we would not be far away.

My vision for the weekend looks good but I feel it will lead to another false dawn but here's hoping is does not.

PREDICTION:

BIRMINGHAM CITY 1 CHARLTON ATHLETIC 2

The Redvolution is coming, looks as though it may have to wait until the bells are a jingling now!!!

Thanks AABD

I saw the JJ news yesterday and must admit we could do with a player (or 6) like him now - shame he's going to continue playing abroad though :-(

Perhaps we could find out if Matty Svensson is available :-)

Or Paulo :-))))))
Player Manager ? ;-))))
Oh dear, where's the tissues?
