Loans or permanent signings , it doesn't matter in the short term. Loan signings are not free , and we have got quality players in. MS has done a good job in my opinion. I back LB and if he's happy I'm happy
Judging by Birmingham fans reactions David Davis may be a very good signing.
Aiden McGeady was brilliant when we held Sunderland to a draw at the Valley last season.
Matt Smith I know nothing about, but he’s from Man City so is unlikely to be without merit. André Green is decent. And we kept Lyle Taylor. That was essential.
I’m hopeful that this will turn out to have been a very useful window. But only time will tell.
My glass, despite have seen much use this evening, is still half full.
I'll get pelters for this but I'm not having it, something doesn't sit right with me with Southall. It's just my view but I think he needs work big time on his social media.
I understand that Davis is a very decent loan signing, McGeady could be lethal and the City kid could be another gem. But ultimately the bloke prick teased a whole fan base for over a day and made out like there would be something bigger. 3 loan signings of that quality isn't 'super duper' or whatever term is was he used.
Each to their own and I appreciate it's better than Roland and I'm not sitting here saying I want change but I can't help but speak my mind. I'm not a fan so far.
Tin had at the ready
I know what you mean.
I'll put it down to him being a bit green at all this, but I do have some concerns.
I personally think that Southall has come across as a bit of a plum on social media. Shame really as I was looking forward to bringing in a decent striker. Talked the talk, but in my opinion has failed to walk the walk.

Just a shame that the loans will result in another summer of rebuilding
On the flip note, players will be available for more reasonable prices - More players will be available too what with teams having longer to scout replacements rather than hoping for a domino effect
Get a good nights sleep Stevie Gallen... Prep for the summer starts tomorrow I bet!!
What a load of old shite. Anyone happy with today is deluded . We’ve gone from an owner who doesn’t say anything and don’t attend games to have a Chief executive who has spouted absolutely nonsense on Twitter and in the media and not backed it up
There must have been quite a big signing that just didn't come off, surely? 3 loanees when we already have 3 and no money being spent doesn't seem like the endgame MS had planned

Thats my other thought, was there someone else yet being so late the selling club just refused to budge because it would have screwed them over too
If you take off the rose tinted glasses of new owners that’s an awful window. Highly doubt it’d be an awful lot different under Roland. Southall looks incredibly stupid.
I’d say losing Taylor, Phillips, Doughty and possibly Bowyer would be an awful lot different. And that’s how it would have looked under Roland today.
Roland only ever sold players in January, to cover losses. To suggest we would have sold the only 3 players we have that are actually worth anything is not true.
Happy that we've kept Lyle & signed McGeady. Davis is ok but Smith....??
I wonder what people would have thought if RD had signed 6 loanees knowing that every week (if everyone is fit) then 1 is being paid to just sit in the stands.
I just hope to god that Taylor & Bonne stay fit as their back-ups wont score enough to keep us up. 3 signings & they are all midfielders. Cant wait until our next manager is an ex-striker.....😁
Good transfer window, but spoiled by MS, who hyped and raised hopes when he didn't have to. (Dick)
Taking it all far too serious mate no?Insulting an engaging new chairman?! Good window. Bowyer now has a fuller squad to manage, and options as players get back to fitness. We have a good set of players that can take on any team in this league when they are fit. Some people on here seem to want to replace the lot of them! How naive. Awaiting any late late shock news but Taylor staying is not to be under- appreciated too. Really, what is not to like? Looking forward to tomorrow.
Fair play to you. Your opinnion. To me It was not an insult to new chairman. Engaging he maybe, but there was no need for hype and bullshitting. This just raised expectations. He didn't need or have to do that. Looks a twat in my book......obviously not yours.

The rebuild will happen in the summer.
Also Southall has tweeted thanking the Management team for their efforts so definitely sounds like we're done
André Green is decent.
And we kept Lyle Taylor. That was essential.

Hopefully push on now and hopefully summer recruitment planning can't start now

Good luck to the loan signings.

So to get to proven experienced players in Mcgeady and Davis is excellent business
bcfc fans fuming about davis in particular,
A bit light up top but keeping lyle is priceless
Sam, behave yourself.
I was just beginning to chill.
Don't worry, Matt has promised to spend £77.5 million in the next window.

Oh ye of little faith !
And Matt Southall: One of our own.
Sorry , nearly forgot the third....
" LYLE TAYLOR BABY, LYLE TAYLOR OOOOOOOH "

Plus ESI haven’t bought the club in its entirety (Valley etc)
I k ow Jan is a precarious time to buy but I’m left wondering what money these guys have got and are willing to part with.
A few question marks for me.
