    You know, I’ve just got a feeling that the “super duper” deal that we tried for in the summer is Toney...
    No chance. They want 10m
    They might buy his boots now and the rest of him in 6 months?

    I am finding Southall absolutely hilarious today. I feel like he's in his element, loving the busy-busy buzz and the positive attention he's getting from it being deadline day, and is also operating on very little sleep and so is a bit giddy. Stuff like this has the capacity to backfire if you make big promises and get nothing, but having alreday brought one player in I think he's just genuinely enjoying himself and is communicating with fans about the possibility of deals, which is a refreshing change from being told nothing and hearing 'undisclosed' whenever anything does happen.

    Probably shouldn't give him any more sugar though.
    It's great fun, though when he refers to a super dupa deal phone, it does raise expectations slightly as to who we're after. It'll be a bit of a damp squib is the super dupa deal phone delivers a 17 year old right back from Barnet!

    This and if we're keeping LT then there are better ways we could use 10m

    Not happening... Darragh wants 10mill, another 2mill in add ons, plus him to be loaned back for the season

    Maybe HE came to London with some good news for Southall regarding some extra wonga?

    Based on Matt's video this morning, I think our next signing will be somebody we've been talking about. Because Matt is offering two free tickets and I don't think he would make that gesture if there wasn't a genuine chance someone would guess

    Could be wrong though
  • So do we think we will sign someone we haven't been rumoured with at all today?? Have to say really enjoying deadline day today for the first time in ages!!! 😂

    Think an announcement coming around 12 GMT. Judging by Matt's earlier tweets

    He's coming across like a kid having fun, playing real life championship manager. Thats not a negative btw.

    Lets see if it comes off. Fingers crossed
    Said this to a mate earlier... Love it, and I'm very envious. If he does pull off the signings, I'm loving the twitter stuff. Actually excited about deadline day for once

    Thing is, people won't even be embarrassed by their behaviour and over reactions yesterday. Hopefully it's going to be a good day

    I don't think for a second we are getting Toney, but I think Peterborough would buckle at far less than £10m - I think £6m

  • I’m still hoping that our next signing is a contract extension for Lyle...

    Suspect any announcement will be done after training, so yeah midday makes sense 
  • Bostock would be quality.

    Perry on Insta is at dreams now looking for a new clean mattress and then over to Greggs for a large slice of humble pie...

    The super dupa deal phone is in use today 
    I hope that one is saved for Lyle Taylor

    The "model" is buy low and sell high, which Peterborough do better than anyone and was the advice McAnthony passed on to his mate, Matt recently.

    100% no chance, but would love to be wrong.

    Who’d of thought an ex agent knows how the window and deadline day works. In Southall we trust.
    Never in doubt

    And if it wasn't a good deadline day, people wouldnt even be embarrassed by 'burying heads in sand etc'. Nobody on this site wants us to fail, so let's just all hope for the best and see if we end up better than we started the month. Which we all agree is what we need.

    Changed the game at the Valley earlier this season. He is a good player one I think Bows would get going.
