Michael Beale obviously has his sights set on Saturday, but now that the transfer window has opened he has been asked if we will look to enter the market to bolster the squad and he seems to think we will.
OFFERED INPUT?
"Yes, of course. We spoke about it in our initial meetings and it has been ongoing. Stuart Harvey the head of recruitment is someone I was familiar with before I came in and the recruitment here is done by a number of us getting together in a room and discussing the options that we have. We have a clear idea on one or two of the areas we would like to strengthen this month if we can.”
BUSY MONTH
"It's never an easy month, but certainly we are going to try and do something to strengthen and boost the squad and to hopefully excite the fans. Those discussions are going on in the background - this [derby] game has been a bit of a distraction, if I'm honest! - but those discussions were happening even yesterday morning and later on in the afternoon."
NOTHING CONCRETE YET
"I think everyone is to-ing and fro-ing a little bit. There have been a lot of discussions going on but nothing concrete as yet so I wouldn't want to put a timeline on it and disappoint, or be accused of pulling the wool over people's eyes if it comes in a bit quicker. At the moment, though, there is nothing imminent."
