Exactly. Why is it that so many fans have such a negative outlook?

If we have managed to save a few million that can be invested in another player by not rushing into a deal then that would suggest that it a very good piece of business.

Truth is that we have no idea what has gone on but lots of fans seem to revel in the idea that we have somehow f**ked up

  - The biggest being an acknowledged failure. And the third biggest (Hooper) landed us with (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Jul 24, 22:53:45

    - Brady will be given though, I'm sure (n/m) (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Jul 24, 22:54:36
      - Brady will be *fine* (n/m) (NCFC) - Higher Wrather, Jul 24, 23:03:14
- Maybe they didnt think he was worth what was being asked. (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 24, 22:44:44
  - No (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Jul 24, 22:51:47
    - No matter. (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Jul 24, 23:16:10

        That's right, for the 'Mars Bar' that you referred to. (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Jul 24, 23:08:07
        
        If the Mars bar is normally one pound then offering 5p is redic. (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 24, 23:11:30

        yes, but we dont know if Hull were willing to sell at that point. (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 24, 23:09:19

    - It had better have huge encrusted diamonds . (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 24, 22:51:53
      - Which would break your teeth and cost even more in dental fees (n/m) (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Jul 24, 23:14:16
- You know no details - if he ends up signing, job done McNally (n/m) (NCFC) - trianglepatch, Jul 24, 22:40:52
  - Reckon AN would have preferred to have him signed two weeks earlier though (NCFC) - Dr Baker, Jul 24, 22:55:19
    - and i would like 12 inch dick........guess 11 inches will have to do.... (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 24, 23:00:06
  - Correct (n/m) (NCFC) - essexcanaryOTBC, Jul 24, 22:46:05

      - not at all. My position is unchanged (n/m) (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Jul 24, 22:45:55
- He clearly has. The massive twat. Utterly ridiculous that we may have secured a top target (NCFC) - norway, Jul 24, 22:39:23
  - Think we tried to be professional and keep it under wraps but Hull chose to never shut up (NCFC) - shortfatb, Jul 24, 22:43:41

  - It's fair to think that we've made very low, unrealistic offers resulting in this dragging (NCFC) - South_West_Canary, Jul 24, 22:39:00
    - Looks like we've got our top target for ?7m (NCFC) - avenging canary, Jul 24, 22:42:48
      - exactly... we arnt even most other PL clubs who have rich owners... (n/m) (NCFC) - usacanary, Jul 24, 22:53:50
