  • Taylor hinting at the number of incomings in that picture.

    Watson, Taylor, Hector, Thomas, Ness, May, T.Campbell, AMB top row
    Asiimwe, Blackett-Taylor, Anderson bottom row. 
  • Apparently the players already have a nickname for Tennai and its really made me laugh - "Twenty-B"

    That pic *almost* works as an XI but it’s a central midfielder light… it has five defenders and three forwards.
    343 with wingbacks? 
    I suppose that could work, feels clunky though! 

    With a 3-4-3 you want more Fraser/Payne types because the wing backs already supply width, rather than wing backs overlapping wingers.
    More Fraser/Payne types?  Injured and out on loan. Really helpful.

    Fosu isn't coming here! Been on a prem wage for a couple of years, will get into many championship sides too
    Which one then? He’s had all summer and not joined anyone. He was a prem wage but he’s currently on a lot less than minimum wage

    If you’re still a free agent now then you’re better off waiting until after the deadline. Then you are one of only a few players left available and can get a better deal from a desperate team. So we’ll probably sign him next week

    CBT has been training at Sparrows Lane today


    Maybe someone can put names to these players for the people who don’t recognize them please.

    I'm not saying he's signing, but what wages he's been on doesn't matter - he's currently on zero wages.

    Why is Watson not very good at poker? Because the best hand he can make is Tennai.

    How’s everyone doing on transfer deadline day, cool, calm and collected, or frazzled and fed up with it all?
  • Bye bye Corey.

    From the clubs perspective you are better signing free agents today as some clubs will miss out on targets and therfore be back in the free agent pool

    Continuing the theme of the last month or so; severely underwhelmed. Hope the business picks up into this evening but also not surprised this is the reality in the same vein

    I get your point but you also risk clubs signing a loan player or backup option instead. See plenty of free agents sign at a lower level than expected after the deadline
  • RC saying Watson from luton done. 
  • Genuinely can't believe we have left it this late into the window to get a striker considering what happened this time last year

    I'm also hearing that Chucks has a new injury FFS!
    Of course he does :(
    Chuks has very fit hands though, never the sniff of a finger strain when he signed that contact.
    Are you saying he was hiding an injury when he signed the contract? If not I don’t get what you mean, sorry.

    On the one hand I agree, but in the other we have May, Miles, Aneke, and Kanu, plus CBT, Campbell, and Campbell. Obviously one big problem with this squad is how they fit together, but I feel like we have a lot of attacking players.

    I think he means he's never had a finger injury at least...
  • Will we have more midfielders than owners?
  • So that's Watson and Watson sorted. Fun. Glad that we looked back at the last time we signed a player called Watson and thought 'what we need this time is two of them'. 
    Troubling that the position things are quietest about is up front where we're most team-splinteringly short. I have a really bad feeling we're dicking about praying for a Ladapo loan and it might backfire spectacularly. The only thing that can redeem this is if we've got an absolutely diabolically bad striker lined up who is 47th down our list to bring in in the event that we can't get Ladapo and have missed the boat on any others. I'm talking Nouble, Dodoo, Abbott level of disasterpiece. It will amuse me.

    Only 11 left? 
  • Perhaps we are trying to confuse the opposition by signing lots of players with the same name: 2 x Campbell, 2 x Watson, 2 x Taylor.

    lovely stuff, don’t think Rich would put this out if there was a chance 
    Phew !!
  • Rumours saying Derby have made an attempt to sign Ladapo
