For signing Dykes and Bonne? If its Les, he should resign immediately. If its Warburton, he should not be allowed to take charge of this transfer window.

Didn't hear too many complaints about Bonne when he thumped home headers against SW and Derby. Think where we would be without them. Not just 3 points worse off, but against two of our relegation rivals

I don't get it. Strikers who score regularly and contribute to teamplay, cost a fortune. If the 'shopping' team had spent a fortune on duds (like Sheff Wed?) I can see why they should be held to account. But R's searched Poundstretcher and took a risk. It hasn't paid off so far. Happens! My bet is that at some stage Dykes will come good. Bonne looks to me like a lower league player but that is commensurate with the price paid.

First, I'll say Dykes and Bonne missed great chances yesterday. Really poor from both.
However I thought they showed potential and why bringing in someone like Charlie is a very good idea as it takes the pressure off a little.
Dykes created 2 excellent opportunities yesterday. One was the pull back that Bos hit and the other was a lovely through ball that Bonne inexplicable went to control with his right instead of left. If Thomas lifts his head in the last minute, he can put Dykes right through on goal. Dykes playing with little confidence but there is something there to persevere with.
Bonne is getting into the right positions which is something. I think he is improving a little game after game.
Hopefully Charlie can hit the ground running and we can rotate these two more. Dykes could be very useful coming off the bench.
Thought Kelman looked poor but obvs far too early to have any real opinion of him.

Agree. Dykes also had a moment in the second half where he brought it out of defence with a good bit of control and very nearly threaded a ball into Bright's path that would have put him through. Was well cut out by the Fulham player and not really mentioned.
Bonne will not have played against that level of player before and you could see that - e.g. trying to go inside from a good position when outside was the obvious option - he may have got away with that in League 1 (not always though and he does need to develop).
I thought Bright was guilty of the same thing at times though - 2 or 3 instances in the first half when he didn't shift the ball enough before trying to put it in and was either blocked or dispossessed. So learning to be done from him too.
Kelman has shown promising glimpses against other teams and not an easy situation to come into.

People keep talking about Bonne like this is the first season at this level. It isn't although his one bit of experience at this level ended in relegation.
Both he and Dykes have been abysmal so far this season. Missing the few chances we create regularly. They are getting steadily worse in front of goal and I am convinced that they will lose the ball soon after it comes.
Truly awful.
Is this just a blip or are they that bad? No idea, hope its temporary and only time will tell, but I can't see how anyone can defend what we've seen so far. As to bargains; not yet, but £3-4m for them is a ripoff on what we've seen...

hes not behind the decision to bring in Charlie Austin that is all Sir Les idea
we need a left back thats why the dutch fella is coming in again Les idea
he spent 4 million on 2 strikers that cant score
he will be hoping they score more than Luton do on Tuesday
THATS ALL IM SAYING
(i have spoken)
i actually think Mark Warburton hoping that we score more than Luton do on tuesday night is a fascinating insight into what goes on in a manager's mind.

Bonne has started what 4/5 games for us, seems a it early to write him off. Dykes also looks like he has potential and ability so working with them rather than writing them off might be an idea

This. Both players look frustrated and doubting themselves. That’s why I’m hoping Austin may be a good influence on them.
