What will you do if it doesn’t happen, Karen? Change team or stop watching any football?

Or do you just mean that you don’t like it and if the club doesn’t do precisely what you want whether that be sign a defensive midfielder, “athletes”, sell to a Saudi oil fund or just sign somebody anybody, then you’ll be jolly upset and scweam and scweam until you get your own way, fully trusting that anybody at the club gives a s**t about your opinion?

And why use the royal “we”?

        Well it is Webber because he clearly failed to sign a single player of the type we needed (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 11, 10:18:25
        
        We probably had to go into a bit of debt paying off contracts for a management team (n/m) (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Jan 11, 10:27:26
        
        Yep cost big bucks and the BK8 debacle … (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 10:32:01
        
        If you really believe that our playing budget is such a joke.... (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 11, 10:33:14
        
        Not really … (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 10:55:57
        
        And we are botto (n/m) (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 10:56:14
        
        We aren’t really though jim… (NCFC) - loz, Jan 11, 10:25:04
        
        Billing would have made far more difference than Tszolis or Screech. (NCFC) - lurd, Jan 11, 10:39:32
  - PM Jim (NCFC) - Charles21, Jan 11, 09:39:45
  - Who would come here in January? (n/m) (NCFC) - SCC 28, Jan 11, 09:38:36
    - There would be loads of champsionship midfielders or players from foreign leagues who (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 11, 09:48:34
      - A Championship midfielder who could hack it in the Prem would still cost a fortune (NCFC) - norwaay, Jan 11, 10:03:34
        
        Frankly anyone with a bit of physicality in there would improve us. (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 11, 10:13:32
        
        The data scientists have identified (NCFC) - NorskyNormann, Jan 11, 10:33:37
        
        " anyone with a bit of physicality"? That's simply not true is it? (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Jan 11, 10:15:49
        
        Tbf, we appear to have signed Sargent and PLM based solely on their (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 11, 10:19:30
        
        Could probably afford it if we shifted Todd (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 11, 10:07:21
        
        No matter how you slice it, we're not spending £12-15m on a Champs player this month. (n/m) (NCFC) - norwaay, Jan 11, 10:09:52
        
        We wouldn't need to spend that. (n/m) (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 11, 10:13:56
        
        Wouldn't cost that for a mid table Champ CM (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 11, 10:12:02
        
        Buying a mid-table champ midfielder is hardly a statement of intent to stay in the EPL (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Jan 11, 10:31:35
        
        Yep, but a mid table CM might not be very good. And who would want to sell now unless over (NCFC) - norwaay, Jan 11, 10:14:26
        
        This is like "who is out there who wants to buy a premier league club" now (NCFC) - Jim, Jan 11, 10:20:09

        Get KOEY back (n/m) (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 11, 10:12:52
        
        have you never played Championship Manager? (NCFC) - Charles21, Jan 11, 10:05:26
        
        In 1993 (n/m) (NCFC) - NorskyNormann, Jan 11, 10:32:03
      - Don’t we already have championship level players though? (n/m) (NCFC) - NorskyNormann, Jan 11, 09:53:32

        All our midfielders are 8s (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 11, 09:56:44
        
        Yep, that's my assessment too (NCFC) - SimonOTBC, Jan 11, 10:17:31
    - John Stones (n/m) (NCFC) - NorskyNormann, Jan 11, 09:47:48
    - Only options really would be either another international loan (NCFC) - jamesward, Jan 11, 09:40:49

  - Make them an offer Jim (n/m) (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Jan 11, 09:35:38
    - Is he a billionaire? (n/m) (NCFC) - NorskyNormann, Jan 11, 09:36:45
      - Nope, a stuck record (n/m) (NCFC) - CB41, Jan 11, 09:41:14
        
        I find him unacceptable. (n/m) (NCFC) - Legacy Fan, Jan 11, 10:10:42
        
        Indeed. Surely there must be a limit to the number of times (NCFC) - CB41, Jan 11, 10:58:59
        
        Is there a limit on being right? (NCFC) - Old Git, Jan 11, 11:24:13
      - trillions (n/m) (NCFC) - Jumbo1, Jan 11, 09:38:32
