So many hypocrites on this site.
The club move out 3 bit part players on loan and the same people who 'never wanted to see them wear the old gold again', 'if we're offered a bag of chips I'll drive them there myself' are now complaining again.
The squad needed trimming for various reasons;
Any player that wants out
create spaces for registration
create wage/transfer budget
And if by some miracle we can find someone, add a bit of creativity/flair and genuine quality

Couldn't agree more Mol, cause those very same posters that spent the summer telling me that the club new what they are doing and that we had a better squad due to our transfer business are hilariously saying the exact same nonsense now! Like I say gold fish learn quicker! ???

The squad was weak at the close of the summer window and we have paid a heavy price. How does Fosun respond? They get rid of 3 players. No players in suggests that our already weak squad is even weaker.

Weaker in numbers yes but that's about it. To be fair, because we are already virtually certain to be relegated, I couldn't really care less about what happens this window as it's the summer that really matters.
That will show weather Fosun want a return or are content with continuing mediocrity meaning wallowing around in the lower reaches of the Championship with our friends from Halfords Lane (if they manage to stay up).

Getting relegated ok.get players in now and not summer. Last week of summer window is a disaster. We need to be ready if we are to be serious and not starting now is a backwards step.

Only issue I got is I think Lopez should've been loaned to a Championship team to get the lad ready for next season.

I hope so Rated. I think Lopez can develop into a real asset.

The Championship would have been a good idea. Could see if he would step up for us next season and it's a good physical league to learn your trade in having not played many games. Dow e think he's gone back to Spain because he's being sold in the summer, or because the recruitment team have made another mistake?
The one thing I expected in the summer was to see 3 or 4 experienced players arrive on deadline day. Obviously didn't happen and that missing depth, experience and quality is why we are where we are. The people making those decisions have been moved on, but it's going to take time to fix that mess and also requires the right people to do so. Jury is still out on whether the right people are in place now.
