Shopping list for the January window

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

I'm increasingly feeling like it's a GK we need the most. Both this week and last, Pearce made a complete cock-up of the 2nd goal. Can't win without a decent shot-stopper. The back line can only do so much. (although, all too often 'so much' is really 'not much'....)
We also don't have anybody who can feed McCormack. Without that player, McCormack will remain as our worst signing of the year.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

Stop calling me Shirley.
No both. Need a passer and a scorer.

Surely you misunderstand, what I was saying, We need 9 or 10 new players.

Careful what you wish for ......... he may just bring you a “knob repair kit” and a box of condoms

I think the last thing McCormack needs is someone else to feed him.



Ok I’ll see myself out.

There was talk of McCormack being assessed and returning before christmas. If he'd done that I wouldn't have believed he was milking it for a holiday.
He's not back though is he.

Getting his divorce finalised and spending Christmas at home with his kids according to Villa message boards (they used to be a big club you know)

Well, you never know,he may come back in a completely and much different state of mind , you know ! Once his lawyer and the wags lawyer tear apart his bank account and sundries

 

[Ancient Mariner]

He still has to get his knee fixed.

 

[BrisRecky]

Oh, I thought the knee was a smokescreen , you know since the club think we’re all mushrooms and et etc

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Jog my memory....what happened to his knee?

 

[Antlion]

I think the knee is/was real but has been played up.
Now I hear about divorce etc the club might have supported a smokescreen on compassionate grounds. I haven't been through it myself but I can only imagine divorce being somewhat traumatic and you'd want to see your kids during it all especially at Christmas. His head and probably his knee wouldn't have been in the game for us currently anyway

 

[Wombat]

He jogged on it.

 

[Ancient Mariner]

I suspect his dicky knee will still not be right.
Just saying.

Mulvey back to roar

 

[Rowdy]

Mulvey back to roar

Aloisi has/had 3pts to his name (unlike Mulvey) ... yet still decided to fall on his sword.

But why would Aloisi do that ??? , some might ask.

"Aloisi didnt want to become what Mulvey WILL BE by seasons end !!"
- plain & simple.

Aloisi obviously was getting inklings of that recurring 'taste' starting to come back into his mouth
........ the 'taste' of 16 games without a win he had to swallow back with Melbourne Heart

The situation at Brisbane is uncannily similar to ours at CCM.
- both clubs failed to recruit quality in a significant quantity
- the quality they did sign incurs injuries

Additionally both are clubs with fcuk all ca$h to either:
- move their respective Managers on due to having to pay out their contracts. (JA most likely realised this)

- sign players of quality in the Jan Xfer window to turn their respective seasons around.

The MAJOR difference between Brisbane Roar & CCM is,
Aloisi had respect for himself, his future, the Brisbane Roar Club & it's fans

Whereas

Mulvey WILL be riding this one out until his contract ends NEXT YEAR
...... then heading to Bali Bintang FC because by then .. even the Thai's WONT have him back.

Isn't Mulvey contracted for three years?
