I imagine the Barnsley fans are getting a bit twitchy, as they lost a lot of goals from last season which haven't been replaced yet.
Barnsley definitely need the most players in right now. They were top for lost players, and have so far only made 1 signing, and Hourihane even said he won't be playing every game, as he's going to be coaching as well.
Leyton Orient, Northampton and Wigan also need to be pretty active before the end of the window.
3 big players they’re losing but will get huge money in. They usually find gems so I wouldn’t be surprised if they continue to do just that. However, they have lost a lot of quality since January.
We could do with nicking some of Peterborough's scouting department, they've been finding absolute gems from league 2 and below for about 15 years.
They do, but we probably don’t hear much about those that don’t work out. It’s not as if they’ve done a Brentford and got to the Prem, on the occasions they get to the Championship they don’t stay there for long.
Clarke-Harris - Rotherham Josh Knight - Hannover Burrows and Jade-Jones - Supposedly both going to Sheff Utd Edwards - Southampton Mason-Clark - Coventry
That's a lot of talent to lose, but as others have said above they do always find gems from lower leagues. They've signed Conn-Clarke from Altrincham who was the National league POTY last season.
Mike Eerdhuijzen heading to Birmingham for 2 million. A centre back from Sparta Rotterdam.
£2m on a centre half is just absolutely absurd for League 1 and I doubt he'll even be their most expensive signing.
This move has collapsed. No reasons disclosed.
Clearly they are willing to splash the cash but it’s hard to convince anyone of a certain pedigree to sign when you’re in the third division.
I think Wrexham will struggle to sign high calibre players for the same reason.
it was easy to offer l1 wages in the conference.
I think Wrexham will make some good signings for this level (saw Joe Morrell has left Pompey , Rich has mentioned they're heavily in for Tom Bradshaw from Millwall) but in the main this will be the season Rob and Ryan realise they probably need another heavy hitter investor on board to push things on.
More impressed with Stockport of the newly promoted clubs.

Barnsley re-sign CB Marc Roberts on a free.
Ronnie Edwards heading to Southampton
Oh wow I was unaware of that! Explains why they were wanting £8m from West Ham last season.
