Would be very surprised if we signed a striker, and it wont be today,

At best we will sign Spicer today and he will play with Ferdinand.
 
Suggest some might wish to bring your boots!
How can so many players be injured already ? (Cresswell, Harris, Tomlin, Timlin)
Pre-season is supposed to get plaers fit, not injured.
So...
1. Either pre-season hasn't been done well by the coaches/management ?
or
2. With all these known injuries, why hasnt more effort gone into getting in more bodies.

Timlin was injured last year.
Tomlin is fit for Sat
Harris may well be- was a 'dead calf'- could happen anytime
Cresswell I think is fit for tomorrow if needed


Other than Timlin these are all 'short term knocks' and you are going to get them even over a number of friendlies.

2. How do you know it hasn't?
 
We arent going to sign more bodies because of a few injuries. The squad has plenty of cover already barring centre midfield.
 
I see everyones team includes Spicer but theres no announcement about him signing yet.

Whats the latest we can actualy sign him so he is registered to play tomorrow?

By everyone you mean the 3 people that have added one .. hardly representative
 
Belford
Clohessy, Phillips, Barker, Prosser
Hall, Ferdinand, Leonard, Straker
Eastwood, Tomlin

The more I think about it, the less confident I am that we'll get a decent result
