Yawn......?

 

[Holy Joe]

But next week never comes

But next week never comes

He's very good at promising jam tomorrow.

Says it all about our situation and what's been going on that no one can even be bothered to speculate on a potential signing.

 

[Stuart W]

Tomorrow, Tomorrow, I Love You, Tomorrow
You're Always A Day Away

Reminds me of that sign I have seen in any number of pubs (remember them?) " Free beer tomorrow".

 

[Cultist of Sooty]

I don't see any point in speculating about players who won't be able to play for us.

Until the embargo is lifted, talking about transfer targets is a complete waste of time.

 

[Clinton Baptiste]

It's a striker from non league called Reg Ister.

 

[brigg blue]

Isn't there a council meeting to discuss the new stadium next week? Could this tempt someone to put some money into the club thus clearing the embargo?

Or am I putting 2+2 together wrongly?

 

[Suffolk Shrimper In Dorset]

Camb Utd will be pleased

 

[Shrimper]

Maybe register the one you've ****ing signed already...

 

[WESTY_SUFC]

Hope is all that's left.

 

[RHB]

Hope is all that's left.

I though you gave up on that months ago @WESTY_SUFC

 

[Richard Hearn]

Shakespeare put it best in Macbeth.


"Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow.
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time............

It is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury. Signifying nothing."

I don't believe anything that Ron says.

He is a liar and has proved time and time again that he is not to be trusted.

I hope he gets us out of the embargo. Having Hart and Akinola and any other additions will be massive for our survival chances.

 

[Somerset Ex-TTB]

The week beginning the 30th? So another 2 games at least away, we may be 10 points adrift of safety by then.

thats if he isn’t lying obviously.

 

[Shrimpergonzo]

Any thoughts on who the alleged striker we're in talks with might be?

 

[blueblueblue]

It really does get boring hearing all this, it never happens. Why wasn't the embargo lifted weeks ago.
