Good move, both Bonne and Penney or similar being brought in after Washington and Purrington left would have saved the Sandgaards some credibility and the team some lost points, neither will be recovered now though.18

110%?That’s 10% more than I ever hoped from a January signing.1

Sounds like he's gonna turn it up to 11.6

I'd say Motherwell are L1 standard.3 -

Considering he went to Motherwell on loan the sort of signing we could have made in the summer. Instead it appears TS and MS thought Clayden was good enough. They saved on wages for half a season but those 2/3 extra signings we needed in the summer could have been the difference between a playoff place and mid table.
I would hope it’s a loan with a view to extension it at the end of the season if it all goes well4 -

Rumours on the other site we are under a transfer embargo. Seriously when will it end?1

Hope there's no clause in the loan saying we can't play him when we meet Ipswich in the play-off final!4

Don't know anything about him but sounds like a good signing on paper. I'm glad that we didn't wait all window for Edun. He probably has a higher pedigree, but at some point you have to move on to other targets. I feel like our recruitment has struggled with that in recent times, so it's nice that they put a marker down in the sand and moved on to Plan B.
He's been playing regularly which means he's fit, which is really good as well. It also means that when Sess is fit, he can play on the right. We can then drop Clare or use him in a back three.
At this point, I would give this window a solid B grade. Needs have been addressed. Quality in depth has been added. A stand out CB or Attacker would still be really beneficial, but those are hard to come by, especially in January and when you can't guarantee loan players playing time due to existing depth. Moving on Stockley and Lavelle (loan or perm) and bringing in two to replace them would be ideal, but that feels more like something that would happen in the summer given that requires four transfers over the next week and a half.
Last step is to let some of the youngsters go out on loan. Mitchell, Deji, and Kanu all can go to the National League and develop (they also don't necessarily have to move within the window). Same with Chin, though we may keep him on a tighter leash given that we're still not exactly blessed with fullbacks.
Good business, done before the 11th hour. We're stronger now than we were three weeks ago, and we've also gotten two players presumably on decent wages off our books. A LB and Bonne should have been added in the summer, it's a shame they weren't as things might have turned out differently.1 -
Have Ipswich got any more players available from last years all conquering 11th placed finishing squad24

Oh go on, my go...
We spent a Penny!1 -
Matt, we don’t want you to give 110% , 100% will do just fine!2
