I think we all know there's not guna be a 'war chest' avaliable.
Definatly not even a fraction of what the last two mangers had with FFP still knocking at the door.
Using common sense one would guess he may give slade a mill or so. To hopefully tie up watt and a winger.
If Slades squad has us in the play offs come Jan then he deserves to be trusted.

How can u not trust a manager whose had to strip a playing squad right down but still gets us into the top 6. People criticising his transfers are just looking for excuses. Loads of them are youngsters bought for the youth team. Then u have pelts and malone who cost a massive 100,000. Both good players. Revell was cheap and anyone with an ounce of football knowledge knows he was bought as backup to Kenwyne.
A reasonable point, his football may not be making Real Madrid fans drool at the mouth, but he is making the best of the squad of players he has at his disposal, despite of the difficult situation the club is in with fans staying away / financial constraints etc.
Would i like a more appealing manager at the helm? yes, but Slade is doing a decent job with whats available. The league table doesn't lie.
Good post Pontypool.
Marshall - Premier league
Peltier - solid Championship
Connolly - top Championshp
Morrison - Solid Championship
Fabio - Premier league
Manga - Premier league
Malone - Solid Champoinship
Gunnar - Championship
Whitts - top Championship
Ralls - top Championshp (prob better)
Pilkington - top Championship
Noone - top Championship
Dikgachoi - top Championshp
Jones - Premier league
Watt- top Championshp
Mason - league 1
The average is top championship, why are we suggesting that he is doing a better job than the player available. Yes he has let player go, but were they really that much better. He hasn't got to work with league 1 players.

Four of those inconsistent teams will qualify for the play-offs. We could be one of them if instead of moaning and whinging people like you got behind the team and helped push the Bluebirds over the line.

No they won't. 1 of them will. There's one place up for grabs.

I think we all know there's not guna be a 'war chest' avaliable.
Definatly not even a fraction of what the last two mangers had with FFP still knocking at the door.
Using common sense one would guess he may give slade a mill or so. To hopefully tie up watt and a winger.
If Slades squad has us in the play offs come Jan then he deserves to be trusted.
The last time he was given a million to spend he wasted it on Doyle.
Just make do with loan signings until the end of the season so Bellamy doesn't have anymore unwanted Slade signings on the books when he takes over.

Only one team will get promoted but there are 4 play-off slots as I clearly stated

ALL managers make bad signings. Even king malky... Ferguson... Wenger.. Almost all championship clubs have players worth more than Doyle that have flopped and are rotting in the reserves or out on loan. You need to take your head out of your arse and look at the bigger picture polo.

Me may, he may not. Too early to tell. Hence I say to use the loan market and see how the season pans out.
You're right about all managers making bad signings but its the ratio of good to bad thats important and so far the Slade signings have been far more bad than good.
Finally please dont ever refer to Malky as "King" when speaking to me. I cant stand the bloke.

Well that's football isn't it, nothing is garenteed. Watt could score another 4 goals before Jan and then we sign him and goes to shit.
Your forgetting that the majority of his signings are either youngsters or brought in as back up squad players on a budget to replace players leaving. Trusted hard workers to bring the right mentality and ethics into the squad that was badly lacking them.
It's not as simple as saying he's signed 'x' amount and only 'x' amount start. You seem an intelligent enough person to realise that but maybe slightly too stubborn to admit it.

Yes I heard O Keefe is a far better comedian than he is a footballer and thats why Slade signed him to have around the dressing room
I remember he claimed O Keefe played a big part in Palace staying up too. Said hed played 13 of the final 17 games. He hadnt. He started 1 game for PulisNow hes realised for himself hes signed a dud hes now tried to claim he was signed for his influence around the dressing room

Me neither. I'd make do with what we've got, see the season out, and start again in the summer.
We need to be building some proper foundations like Swansea, Southampton, Palace and Leicester have done in recent times.
Just hoping to go up on a wing and a prayer with no proper philosophy, no proper plan just end up becoming a QPR and ending up in worst trouble or for getting promoted.
