Cummings in intriguing.at 23 has lots of parallels with Watt but looks a better finisher. 1 in 2 in SCotland for unfancied Hibs is decent. Quick, left footed and plays on the shoulder of the last man.
Is our season over or are we going to push on for a top two place?
If we get any sort of replacements for Ajose/Grant then we have to be happy as Reeco and Igor are not enough for the run in (bearing in mind Taylor will probably miss at least four of those games and maybe more).
I think that the press release coming out at 11.05 tonight may have a familiar smell in that de cloob tried to get some transfers over the line but failed due to the time available.
The opportunity to give Charlton and the fans a massive boost by a show of intent is there, but this looks to me like another failure by Roland to grasp that nettle.
I am told that bowyer will get all the money from the sale - if it happens - and ultimately it is bowyers call - he could say no but then you would have a player on your hands who has just lost out on over 3 times the wages he is currently being offered - the wages offered are at the top limit of the wage structure - the alternative is to bring in 2 strikers and i back gallen and bowyer to get this right when they bring in the replacements. If they can't get what they think is right with regards to replacements then i doubt they will let him go and may instead take the deal from rangers which involves him staying but only goes through in the summer if he isn't injured. Not all done and dusted yet
If Huddersfield are going to pay £2M for Grant and make him one of their top earners then they are absolutely mental.
Isn’t it more that he’s one of our lowest earners - he signed a contract before he broke into our first team. If he’s only on say £2-3k a week he could easily get £10k at Huddersfield. A big increase in terms of % but he’d be going from a youngsters wage with us to a squad player for Huddersfield.
It was bad enough we got rid of Ajose with no replacement. If we don't bring in someone of relative quality for Grant then we have had an absolute stinker of a window.
It started pretty well too with Williams, Purrington & Maxwell all looking like decent recruits.

Fits the criteria I guess.
Hogan- Villa to Sheffield
Clarke- Sheffield to Wigan
Vaughan- Wigan to Charlton

Could be interesting if it were us

I hope I'm wrong.
In which case I predict none today inwards.
After 11pm free transfers are the only chance we have of bringing in new players.
