So a good window IMHO, 8/10, but the proof of the pudding WILL BE IN THE EATING and meal time is May, not August.3 -
This window has been a bit of a reality check for Wrexham, I'm sure they weren't expecting to only sign one relatively unknown striker in the last week.9

Cannot express how happy I would be if Birmingham didn’t go up29

Boring Boring Birmingham...🙄0

Birmingham manager is in a bit of a catch-22 reputation/development wise. If it all goes sideways and devolves into a mess of egos and arguments, he gets the blame. If he wins the whole thing by March setting records along the way then people just shrug and point at the budget/squad and say (correctly) well that's what he should be doing.1

Spending money guarantees nothing. I don't get the Brum are certainties to go up lark.3

I keep reading that we have depth?! This is made up partly of players that the manager didn’t want nor any other club. The window has been a good one but let’s not get carried away. Some of these players nearly got us relegated last season so they can’t be that good. The club are moving forward but it’s going to take a few more windows to replace a few that aren’t good enough. The club is being run professionally and we’re moving forward.7

Probably yes last season but a very tough league this season. Just our luck.1 -
Ffs, this thread is 2 days old and already runs to 18 pages. How will I ever catch up?0

Not to start up a debate about his overall job performance but not getting moves for Taylor, Asiimwe & Edun is definitely a mark against Andy Scott. If his job is less about going and identifying the players to bring in now, he has to be good at shifting players2

Scott Fraser has left Charlton by mutual consent.9

All the more reason to focus on having a really quality and productive youth system. Bringing through your own talent looks increasingly the only sustainable way to exist without some ludicrously wealthy ownership willing to write blank cheques. I still love Charlton but the wider game just leaves me colder and colder each year. I frankly don’t want to compete with a club being run like Birmingham is because that kind of money is just obscene.2 -

That's just how I see it. Sadly.
I cannot stand them or their fans9 -
I'm definitely going to watch the Birmingham v Wrexham match when it will be, inevitably, televised - but just in the hope that they kick seven shades of shit out of eachother. Hope both clubs crash and burn.5

I’d give the window a 7.5/10, but would upgrade that to 8 if we bring in Potts0

Aren't there still financial rules in League 1? How can Birmingham pay that and not break them?0
