The big six are buying most of the best players and paying them ridiculous wages. A/ V Forest and Newcastle cannot compete at their level. Liverpool and United have been the worst offenders, I mean how many extra forwards do they need? Or cynically they are stopping other clubs signing them. It makes you realise what an amazing last season we had against this group. Somehow I cannot see this season being the same. Somehow we must turn around a poor run of results stretching back to the tail end of the season and the poor results of our recent friendlies.
Brentford on paper is a win. They have lost a top striker, we lost Elanga but have replaced him. So let's hope they can win this one.

Canny beat being positive before a ball is even kicked at the start of the season. Big six buying everyone? I can't think of one of our targets being taken from us. ??.

I share your concerns as I'm sure many others do on here Doc. However, what I saw in the first half last night has given me a bit of hope about the forthcoming season.

The biggest problem winter mate
The window should never be extended beyond a season, how can coaches prepare for a season when the window is still open for two weeks beyond?
Newcastle sign elanga and isak wants out now?
The window should shut before the season starts.
{Ed001's Note - it was never a problem until they introduced the window. The smaller it gets the worse it is for the smaller clubs as the big clubs will just stockpile more players.}

Totally agree edd
The window and the length it's open is ridiculous
We all know business will be done last few days when we've played games.
