Why is it that every single thing this club does seems so feckin protracted? Are we, the fans, missing something? Is our anxiety because of our total mistrust of this board to actually do the job they are ridiculously overpaid to do.
Why do so many other clubs seem to identify a target, make a fair offer, sign the player and then get on with other business. I get that it can’t be that simple, but equally, it can’t be as difficult as we appear to make it.

@chasaboy I have now reached the opinion Martin is actually fighting Nicholson and co to sign players, they seem to do not want to sign anybody or progress or club, we are lucky Martin is our coach as he will make them spend the cash otherwise I believe he will say I tried and just resign, but the fans would not stand for that.

Don't think we will ever get the answer to that particular perennial question unless a former manager spills the beans in his memoirs.
As far as I can recall no one has yet revealed his transfer frustrations or cited frugal 'biscuit tin' conduct by The Board.

We don't need someone to spill the beans as we can see the evidence with our own eyes.
