    That 5 year plan will become a 8/9 year plan if nothing happens. 
    Do you honestly believe that we will not sign anyone this month?
    Anyone, yes.

    Of the required quality, doesn’t look likely when we are not pay the necessary for league one forwards (Gnanduillet).

    Happy to be wrong.
    Blackpool moves the goal posts at the last minute. Not Charltons fault

    if you stop off at a pub tonight and order a £3.50 pint and the barman pours the pint, puts it in front of you and says £4 please. Do you pay or do you tell him to do one and go for a pint elsewhere?
    Depends how far the nearest pub is, how much they charge, whether they will still be open when I get there and whether the beer there is any good. I’d probably just pay the extra 50p most times. 

    Probably wouldn’t go back there though.

    We have until noon tomorrow for any signing to he eligible to play Wed night. Seeing as 8 expect everyone at any club has shut up shop now we have around 3-4 hours left. 

    I'm not expecting anyone to sign & I reckon Bowyer is banking on Taylor, Cullen & Field to be able to play some part on Wednesday.....then I reckon it will be loans only with maybe one desperate permanent signing (Maddison) on deadline day. Problem is, once again, if they sign after noon on the 31st they will miss the Barnsley match the next day.
    You are actually more optimistic than me there Golfaddick. Maybe an underwhelming loan tomorrow and a couple more before the window closes. No perms and Bowyer stalls on his contract.

    I’m confident there will be at least one permanent signing before the end of the month.

    Loads more activity still to be done across the whole country. Things work in a domino effect, one deal elsewhere could kick start a whole host of deals.

    That really might not be enough though Sage, even with two more loans. I do think that like you say things will start moving soon and I’m still hoping to see 4/5 in and praying for Cullen/Taylor contracts!
  • I just listened to Alan Curbishley on the Quickly Kevin; will he score? podcast (good listening for anyone who enjoyed 90’s football) - he said that after selling Parker in Jan 07, he couldn’t spend the money as everyone knew we had £12m in the bank and then overnight we were being quoted £6m for everyone! It’s probably a similar scenario now. 

    We’ll bring some players in before the end of the window but these things take time.

    Right now, I just want Bowyer signed up...

    Of course it might not be enough... We could sign five players and it might not keep us up

    As you can guarantee that if we do go down, any number of players we've signed will be blamed on Gallen / Bowyer for not being good enough

    End of the day though it wont be because those involved havent tried their damndest

    True about the domino effect, two of which concern me. Apparently both Birmingham and Hull will go for Maddison properly if either sell Bellingham/Bowen respectively

    Which is why Maddison is in no hurry to sign

    I think we might see the 4 coming in. We were aiming at getting 3 in before Gallagher went, so he will need to be replaced too.

    Things will start moving along far quicker between now and the end of the window. There’s going to be a lot of movement across the board in the final week with some surprising deals going through as well. There’s no chance things will remain as quiet as what they have been, for everyone.

    That's a very good point and a very good podcast, well worth a listen.

    Or maybe we should go for Max Headroom.

    We’re signing that Korean bloke we normally get linked with - Fu Kin Nowan.

    Hi all - it'd be appreciated if low-effort jokes (so to speak) like these were generally avoided, going forward.
