Right, Xmas and New Year are over and my mini break from posting, plus the removal of Jeff Shi, has re-enthused me and encouraged me to start commenting on here again. I for one will take Nathan Shi's word's on face value, certainly until the end of this window, which may yet put me back into hibernation if it's another cock up.
Now given that nothing really improved when RE first took over from VP am I reading too much into the return of
Rui Pedro Silva as Assistant Head Coach. It's fair to say performances have improved since his return so was he the power behind Nuno's throne and is he starting to have a similar impact working with RE.
After all Nuno always praised his backroom staff insisting that much of the original turnaround at Wolves was down to them. We've seen a progressive improvement in the last three matches culminating in the draw at Man U, plus a better showing against Liverpool. So is that the RE effect, the RPS effect or a bit of both?
Probably, all too late, of course, unless the wheels come off three other teams and we suddenly turn a corner thanks to some inspired sales and signings this month but it would at least give the paying fans something to cheer.

Welcome back longmynd and a
happy new year to ya.
Gawd knows what's going to happen in the next few weeks, have we started looking more of a team due to wantaways putting more in or due to RE et al.
as suggested?
The team will have to be cobbled together again over January into Feb I'd imagine, but it'll be interesting to see how it happens.

I don't think we should hold our breath for an exciting transfer period.
Not sure who is charge of the Club at the moment.
In previous seasons, Guangchang has come over and authorised signings, when things were bad. Doesn't look like he is coming this time.
At best it will be sell before we buy, which usually means new faces don't arrive until late, sadly then no time to be integrated.
I think we will have to wait until the summer to see if we are being allowed to re-build.

Welcome back Longmynd. Sadly I think that we cannot trust Fosun to do what is necessary. They have presided over the demise of our club for 3 years. They have sold our best players, and put us into a shameful position which has only one outcome. I see no change to their intention in this transfer window.
