It's all that London-centic ignore everyone else attitude i guess. Anyone who lives in London no matter what their income has a f*cking screw loose. The place is a sprawling cack hole.

The reports are now saying that we are not expected to sign a manager now until after the weekend. Sorry, but this is piss poor. How long does it take for goodness sake? How many other clubs would go this long without a manager?
It is a bloody disgrace and further evidence, in my opinion, of how little GI think of the club itself.
Bang on and in my eyes the club are not getting anyway near the flak it deserves for this. Too many are still busy blaming Nicholson for everything (including what has happened post his sacking).

This situation is completely ridiculous, what do we have a never ending time scale to apply, so Santa Claus shows some interest and we have to wait until xmas

Hi everyone please don't rip my head off, first post😉

Surely 3 signings (so far) is a positive sign re the owners? Whatever is going on behind the scenes and the reason for the delay, (which is more than likely beyond their control), surely getting the right man over the line to save Tufc longterm, is the only thing that matters?

Interesting to see us sign that lad from Norwich might that be a hint to who the next manager is as Richard money just left a job at the academy of Norwich so he might have some links there

I see it more as it was a case of sign a couple of players or we cant field a full 11.. GI had no choice but to get these players in.

7 a side anyone? :lol:

......and Dagenham is the thick end of London! :slap:
Today is known as deadline today, so this is a perfectly reasonable title in my opinion. Our game vs Woking next April will be called an Easter Monday fixture without us having to partake in any rising from the dead ourselves.

And if you wanted to watch a 25-minute vlog from new left-back Chinua Cole's trip to Bali, guess what? You can! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sC_Ar4PrWcM&app=desktop
Another self publicist. Great. Can't we just get someone who wants to succeed at footy?

The signings don't inspire any confidence whatsoever really.

In actual fact these signings look poor on the face of it and not signings made by an experienced old head who knows what situation the club are in. Efete i'm most impressed with. Been on loan with Breidablik in Iceland and having been out there and watched a few games it's a decent enough standard. It shows he is willing to learn and develop and i think he's the best by a mile of the three. His twitter account recently doesn't show him posing in front of booty in the Bahamas but mainly serious football stuff which i can accept.

I can't find a twitter account by Dowling which makes me like him instantly. A footballer without a twitter account to promote their vain-ness. I must buy that lad a pint sometime as i thought it wasn't possible. Although he has no experience which is a huge concern, he appears not to have a twitter account and that is the most important in my eyes. :nod:

Cole has no experience either.

The club are in a pressure dogfight already and sign 3 players with next to no experience. The law of averages says that one of them might do reasonably well but all three no chance.

Best of luck to them all anyway.

Forget the vlog from new left-back Chinua Cole's trip to Bali, listen to his 'Own Story' - hope his dreams come true starting at Torquay - no reason why not - others have reached higher heights

See that's what i'm saying. We've all got dreams, hopes, plans. We just don't all feel the need to make youtube videos about them and tell the bloody universe! Nobody is interested in my dreams but me so that's why i don't make a video of them and put them on the internet!! My dreams are private too. Privacy doesn't exist anymore. Everyone's personal lives are played out on the internet. Bizarre.

Just text your mates, tell them you are off to Torquay and are over the moon about it and tell your other half too and that it's a great opportunity and you can't wait to get started and give it your best shot. Nobody else needs to know!
