This is the sort of article fans of prosperous clubs love to read and contribute to during the transfer window. Flash player spotted parking flashier car outside the ground. Chairman spotted in motorway service area talking to much coveted young talent. ( or even a footballer)!
Well, it ain't gonna happen here, those days are sadly gone.
So, let's tone down our expectations and speculate about more realistic arrivals.
For starters, Spotted Outside the Reebok today, a man in a smart suit carrying a clipboard. When questioned he would only divulge he had 'urgent business' to do, and that 'somebody has to do it'.
Any more sightings?

In an almost convincing display of "we're in this austerity thing together" our beleaguered chairman emerges from the bowels of the stadium.
"Are those water cannon running off our meter"?
Gartside , sporting his new id badge, which he himself designed to save the pennies, it previously read 'Phil Gartside Bolton Wanderers'. Now this is abbreviated on a smaller badge to ' Philanderer'.
He thought it went down well at the last chairmanning do, lots of approval from fellow chair people.

Reports in Spain include, N'gog to Calpe FC, Mears to Altea FC and Bogdan to Benidorm.
The report says that all three are looking for a bit of winter sun. They will probably be here for around two weeks as the clubs involved don't expect them to turn up for training. The beach and Sticky Vickie's night club seem to be the main attraction. Football issues seem to be a secondary consideration.
